Yup, that's the part I thought I broke (track 9 instead of track 1) , thanks for confirming.

However, none of this should cause a crash... ever... investigating...

I wasn’t using encoder mode on the MFTwister. I’m back to using standard CC mode. In that mode they’re just regular midi knobs. It can be configured either way (encoders or CC). Standard CCs in MFT + Fader in CSI worked great until today.

Oops, my bad, i thought you had decided encoder mode was the way to go -- forgot you can change the MFT stripes.
This is exactly why the preferred method of plain vanilla setup for CSi should be as stock as possible -- to get the most benefit for the most users -- what is the MFT out of the box power up mode ?
We should use that one if possible, at least to start with.
What does your CSI.ini look like ?

I just did a quick factory reset on the MF Twister to see what the default mode is: it's CC's.
I wanted to use encoders for the higher resolution, but like I said, CC's had been working great as a stop-gap (to when encoder acceleration was built and working well for the MFTwister).
The MFTwister, seems smart enough to pick up the CC's based on the feedback it receives from CSI. So for example, if I have a plugin knob at 75% and use the MFTwister in FocusFXMode for that plugin, the MFTwister ring correctly shows the knob as 75% filled, and when I increase the knob, it doesn't jump. It just picks up as though the physical knob just happened to be in that exact spot. It's very clever. Maybe the issue is happening on the Feedback process in this new build? The crash happens as soon as I click OK after adding the MFTwister and as soon as Reaper opens. I have to delete the CSI.ini to get the crashes to stop.
Here's my csi.ini
Code:
Page "Home" FollowMCP NoSynchPages NoScrollLink NoTrackColoring 0 0 0
MidiSurface "MFTwister" 7 8 "MIDIFighterTwister.mst" "MIDIFighterTwister" NoZoneLink AutoMapSends NoAutoMapFX NoAutoMapFXMenu AutoMapFocusedFX
Anyway, I'm already late heading out for the night. Happy New Year's Geoff and other CSI forumites.

Is there anything else in the MIDIFighterTwister folder besides the .zon file you posted ?

I had a bunch of fx zone files (taking a little over 40) but I think I moved them all out towards the end and before that last attempt.

Although a little off our current topic, I got to the bottom of the FX parameters that refuse to be controlled, including "The Curse of Three" that I have encountered many times now.
I turns out these FX parameters (which usually take the form of a multiway switch or selections from a menu) don't respond to increment/decrement encoders, no matter how many ticks they send. When they are mapped to a Fader7Bit control, they respond just fine.
Which is a problem if your surface only has inc/dec encoders.
Could we have a bit of intervening code to translate the inc/dec ticks (or several ticks) into a series of fixed values (that we can set, both in number and value)? and have this set in the FX map?
With that in place, I think the FX parameter mapping is pretty much put to bed
I'll start adding stuff back to the new build, will let you know when I find out what makes it fall over.

Fantastic sleuthing
Now I totally see what is happening.
Have to think about it a bit...

Crash on load happens if any Reaper Actions are assigned in the Zone. Will crash even if the line is commented out, scary huh?
Also, the track count is messed up. I get 1-8 followed by 17-25, or 9-16 follwed by 25-32. CSI thinks all my surfaces are 16 channels wide instead of 8.
On a positive note, Send and FX menu are working, as is FX mapping.
Happy New Year I'm off to bed....

Nope, perfect, actually, please post the .zon file contents, we'll feed them to CSI, watch it freak , then fix

Yes, that's another manifestation of the Send bug, the Sends are "stealing" 9-16, in the first case, and 1-8 and 17-24 in the second case, will fix.

Aha !
We need new widgets -- Stepped -- FB_Stepped:
Code:
Widget A3ValStepper
Stepped B0 05 00 40 7f
FB_Stepped B0 05 00 40 7f
widgetEnd
Widget A4ValStepper
Stepped B0 05 00 28 50 7f
FB_Stepped B0 05 00 28 50 7f
widgetEnd
Intended usage -- hardware->Widget -- any hardware widget that has a Press only notion (switch, encoder, etc.)
See any holes ?

New build is up.
Fixed the "Sends steal TrackNavigators" issue.

I could be missing the point here, but if this is handled at the Widget level, doesn't it commit that particular Widget to always being a stepped type?
I think it would be better to address the issue wrt the FX parameter being controlled, ie in the FX map. Only certain parameters need to have discrete (ie not inc/dec) values presented to them. All the other parameters work fine with inc/dec.
Also, I think this issue only affects FX parameters. I can't think of a use case outside of this.

Haha, here I am, constantly extolling the vitrues of handling things in the .zon files as opposed to the Widget definitions, and I go ahead and do the exact opposite
You are exactly right, and yes, I can't think of a use case outside of FX parameters.
So, instead how about a new action SteppedFXParam ?
Code:
Zone SomeFX
Widget1 FXParam 0
Widget1 FXParam 7
Widget3 SteppedFXParam 3 0.0 0.3 0.6 1.0
ZoneEn

Superb! My Sonsig Rev-A reverb thanks you from the bottom of it's heart (highest concentration of non-controllable parameters I've come across)
Re: the latest build. I get the same 8 tracks across every surface. Reaper Action thing doesn't seem to affect MCU, only C4. Will carry on investigating.

Hi Geoff, wasn't expecting a change but tried anyway and the new build also crashes when trying to add the MFTwister. Now that I'm back at my PC I can confirm that the only thing in the Zone folder at the moment is the .zon file I posted earlier. I had a bunch of fx.zon's but previously moved those out in earlier troubleshooting efforts.
So I've been playing around to troubleshoot:
1. Removed the buttons from the .zon file and tried to load it: still crashes
2. Removed the channels/sends from the .zon file leaving only the buttons and tried again: still crashes
This makes me think the crash has nothing to do with .zon file at all. Ok..so let's simplify things further:
3. Edited the .mst file - left only the first page of buttons, removed feedback state. The only widgets are simple press widgets. Then I edited the .zon file to only reflect these buttons. Try to load the MFTwister in CSI: still crashes.
Here's the simplified "test" .mst:
Code:
Widget ChannelLeft
Press B1 00 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelRight
Press B1 01 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelMute
Press B1 02 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelSolo
Press B1 03 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget TrimRead
Press B1 04 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Touch
Press B1 05 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Latch
Press B1 06 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Write
Press B1 07 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Loop
Press B1 08 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Click
Press B1 09 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget RecordArm
Press B1 0A 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Record
Press B1 0B 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Rewind
Press B1 0C 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget FastForward
Press B1 0D 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Stop
Press B1 0E 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Play
Press B1 0F 7F
WidgetEnd
Here's the simplified "test" .zon:
Code:
Zone Home
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackSendsToWidgets
OnFXFocus MapFocusedFXToWidgets
IncludedZones
Buttons|
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
Zone Buttons|
ChannelLeft Reaper 40286
ChannelRight Reaper 40285
ChannelMute TrackMute
ChannelSolo TrackSolo
TrimRead TrackAutoMode 0
Touch TrackAutoMode 2
Latch TrackAutoMode 4
Write TrackAutoMode 3
Loop Reaper 1068
Click Reaper 40364
RecordArm TrackRecordArm
Record Record
Rewind Reaper 40042
FastForward FastForward
Stop Stop
Play Play
ZoneEnd
This leads me to think the Reaper crashes have to do with the communication between CSI and the device itself - maybe when trying to open the MIDI ports. Did anything change in that regard between the 12/27 build and the 12/31 build?
EDIT:
4. Even replaced all the actions in the .zon with "NoAction" and it still crashes.

I've been playing around to troubleshoot:
1. Removed the buttons from the .zon file and tried to load it: still crashes
2. Removed the channels/sends from the .zon file leaving only the buttons and tried again: still crashes
This makes me think the crash has nothing to do with .zon file at all. Ok..so let's simplify things further:
3. Edited the .mst file - left only the first page of buttons, removed feedback state. The only widgets are simple press widgets. Then I edited the .zon file to only reflect these buttons. Try to load the MFTwister in CSI: still crashes.
Here's the simplified "test" .mst:
Code:
Widget ChannelLeft
Press B1 00 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelRight
Press B1 01 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelMute
Press B1 02 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget ChannelSolo
Press B1 03 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget TrimRead
Press B1 04 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Touch
Press B1 05 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Latch
Press B1 06 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Write
Press B1 07 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Loop
Press B1 08 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Click
Press B1 09 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget RecordArm
Press B1 0A 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Record
Press B1 0B 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Rewind
Press B1 0C 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget FastForward
Press B1 0D 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Stop
Press B1 0E 7F
WidgetEnd
Widget Play
Press B1 0F 7F
WidgetEnd
Here's the simplified "test" .zon:
Code:
Zone Home
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackSendsToWidgets
OnFXFocus MapFocusedFXToWidgets
IncludedZones
Buttons|
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
Zone Buttons|
ChannelLeft Reaper 40286
ChannelRight Reaper 40285
ChannelMute TrackMute
ChannelSolo TrackSolo
TrimRead TrackAutoMode 0
Touch TrackAutoMode 2
Latch TrackAutoMode 4
Write TrackAutoMode 3
Loop Reaper 1068
Click Reaper 40364
RecordArm TrackRecordArm
Record Record
Rewind Reaper 40042
FastForward FastForward
Stop Stop
Play Play
ZoneEnd
This leads me to think the Reaper crashes have to do with the communication between CSI and the device itself - maybe when trying to open the MIDI ports. Did anything change in that regard between the 12/27 build and the 12/31 build?

I think @MixMonkey has it narrowed down to any Reaper Actions, try removing those.

Ah, yes, fix something, break something else, you are beginning to get a view into how totally disruptive that simple .zon file change was code-wise

...and if you remove the LF before ZoneEnd in the first example, it works fine Parser error?

Thanks, oh yeah, most assuredly parsing, that whole Zone file processing section got a rewrite as a result of the simple Buttons to Buttons| etc., changes.

Already did. I edited my post while you were replying but you probably didn't catch it.
I did a test version where I replaced the actions in the .zon with "NoAction" and it still crashes when trying to add.
Test .zon file:
Code:
Zone Home
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackSendsToWidgets
OnFXFocus MapFocusedFXToWidgets
IncludedZones
Buttons|
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
Zone Buttons|
ChannelLeft NoAction
ChannelRight NoAction
ChannelMute NoAction
ChannelSolo NoAction
TrimRead NoAction
Touch NoAction
Latch NoAction
Write NoAction
Loop NoAction
Click NoAction
RecordArm NoAction
Record NoAction
Rewind NoAction
FastForward NoAction
Stop NoAction
Play NoAction
ZoneEnd

Yup, definitely parsing, thanks for the test cases.

I was wondering what "parsing error" meant. Yep. That did the trick! Deleted the blank lines and it loaded without a crash. Good job helping narrowing that down!

Splendid The parser is the code that scans all the setup files (.zon,.mst etc) If it makes a mistake, the whole show falls apart.

But I can't do this anymore:

/Open FX Chain for selected slot

RotaryPushD6 Reaper _S&M_SHOWFXCHAIN6
RotaryPushD7 Reaper _S&M_SHOWFXCHAIN7
RotaryPushD8 Reaper _S&M_SHOWFXCHAIN8

So no more double assigning, it would seem

New build is up.
Hopefully fixes repeating Channels and crash on empty Zone line.
Still pondering the double assign issue...

Well put, however the show should never crash, maybe get pretty lame, but never crash

After having removed them, I just added the blank lines back to try it out and can confirm the fix works. Everything's back to where we were before with the MFTwister. Thanks!
May give Eucon another go today. Have to pour over your last post on it.

Great, thanks to you and @MixMonkey for the effort sorting this -- well so far -- there may be a bit more to come

If anyone with a MIDI Fighter Twister wants to try this out, here's an updated set of files:
1. Updated syntax for .zon file due to recent CSI updates
2. Changed Encoder widgets to Fader widgets (you'll also need to load the new MFTwister utility file that's attached if you happened to use my prior version)*
3. Added 42 (so far!) FocusedFX mappings covering a lot of common plugins - these all get handled on Bank1 on the MFTwister
4. Updated documentation to show how some FX mappings generally work
I'm super happy with how well this all ties together. This is an incredibly capable Reaper control surface thanks to CSI.
*This could change back after encoder acceleration gets built, but I actually kind of like the faders right now.

Great stuff, thanks for contributing !
Just wondering, you still don't like the re-tuned EncoderPlain, had a chance to try it yet ?

Not yet. You know what, I'll do that today. I want to make a tweak to the zones to separate the selected channel buttons and more global buttons by putting them in two different zones so I temporarily took down the attachment. I'll also check out the EncoderPlain changes at the same time before reposting.

Channel numbering fixed, Pan/Width fixed with a slight modification:
Code:
Zone PanWidth|1-8
TrackNavigator
Rotary| TrackPanWidth 1
DisplayLower| TrackPanWidthDisplay
TrackTouch+DisplayLower| TrackVolumeDisplay
RotaryPush| GoZone Home
ZoneEnd
Highlighted was previously GoZone Channel|, which doesn't seem to work. GoZone Home achieves the same thing.
Double assign thing may be specific to the FX Menu (like modifiers not working), it works in other places:
Code:
Zone Home
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackSendsToWidgets
OnTrackSelection MapSelectedTrackFXToMenu
IncludedZones
C4_Buttons|
IncludedZonesEnd
ZoneEnd
/
Zone C4_Buttons|

Highlighted was previously GoZone Channel|, which doesn't seem to work. GoZone Home achieves the same thing.
Double assign thing may be specific to the FX Menu (like modifiers not working), it works in other places:

Cool, so we're mostly back on track, yes ?

Yes, I think so. I've only tried the new versions on Mac, will try on Windows (but this should be ok, I think @FunkyBot uses Windows)
Itching to give the SteppedFXParam a go!

Hi Geoff, EncoderPlain feedback:
1. Knob tuning feels MUCH better now. You don't have to twist and twist and twist to feel like your moving the knob.
2. There are times though where finer control might be desired (like ReaComp and it's odd parameter scaling for attack/release, or fine tuning volume). It might be cool if there were ways to set "Fine Tuning" modifiers. Something like
Rotary1 FXParam "1"
Shift+Rotary1 FineFXParam "1"
And also allow for things like
Rotary|TrackPan
Shift+Rotary|FineTrackPan
...just a thought. Not sure if that would work for TrackVolume/FineTrackVolume on surfaces with flying faders though.
3. Bug: when twisting knobs on the surface, I can turn VST FX parameters well-beyond their normal parameter ranges. This seems bad. Example: I can create negative pre-delay times on Valhalla VintageVerb because the knob doesn't stop at 0 anymore. Or in EQuilibrium, the gain knobs keep turning after I pass -18db (which is the limit). Or get -438ms attack times in ReaComp. It seems like bounds are not being respected.
4. Also, I'm more regularly getting that thing now where the surface stops responding. Just happened twice in the first two go-rounds with encoders. Both times FX were focused but it's hard to say if that's what caused the surface to stop responding. This hadn't happened at all in the last few days but suddenly happened twice so I figured I'd report it.
5. As mentioned once before, the encoder movement is inverted, but the Invert+Action modifier fixes that so no biggie.
As an FYI - my encoder widgets look like this (I think I recall you saying there was no encoder FB hence the FB_Fader7Bit):
Code:
Widget Rotary1
EncoderPlain b0 00 7f
FB_Fader7Bit b0 00 00
WidgetEnd
Definitely going to stick to Fader7Bit for now. But will keep these mst and zon files handy and off to the side for future testing.

Yep, I'm on Windows. In terms of things I've tested so far, I think we're back on track outside of things I just reported.
