[Beta] Midihub 1.14.1 Inconsistent Drag Pipeline to 2nd Editor

This might be just a Mac issue so it would be useful if others in the community could test it briefly on Linux & Windows.

This (fairly meaningless) preset CopyPasteDuplicate.mhp was made in one Editor instance, by dragging pipes and pipelines to duplicate them.

Everything worked as expected.


I then opened a 2nd Editor instance…

on Mac OS X

by pasting this into Terminal

/Applications/Midihub\ Editor.app/Contents/MacOS/Midihub\ Editor ; exit;

(I think you only have to do this on Mac)

…and started with a new blank preset.

Here dragging (from the file above in the 1st Editor) caused inconsistencies:

Original Transforms
L1: (Note_on,Inside), (Note_on,Outside), (CC,Inside),
L2: (Note_on,Inside), (Note_on,Outside), (CC,Inside), (Note_on,Outside)
L3: As L1

(L2&3 created by [shift]-alt-dragging L1. All as expected)

1st attempt dragging to new file
CopyPasteDuplicatedToSepEditor.mhp
screenshot (source below, destination above):

  • L1: alt-drag Original L1: loses Transform1
    becomes (Note_on,Outside), (CC,Inside)

  • L2: shift-alt-drag Original L1: Barmy!
    (Note_on,Outside), (CC,Inside),(Note_on,Outside Mapped)

  • L3 shift-alt-drag Original L1:OK

  • L4 alt-drag Original L2:“OK”
    but note Mappings copied even though Shift not down

Second attempt
CopyPasteDuplicatedToSepEditor2.mhp

  • L1 as First attempt

  • All other pipes copy from Original but without mappings irrespective of drag-mode.


can anyone else replicate similar inconsistencies?

PS. I don’t think I tested this with earlier versions, @Giedrius, so apologies if I could’ve picked it sooner!

Confirmed!

when i use this file ,or just new file

even with one instance of MIDIHUB Editor ,
when i drag pipeline by the first MIDI PORT pipe while holding ALT to duplicate
after few times editor starts to cut pipes
this behaviour is inconsistent

Excellent. I discovered bug while creating a short pictorial guide to dragging and dropping, so I’ll finish that after update…
