Hi Everyone - I'm a little late to the game here, but when I download the archive from Codeplex, I am not seeing a .exe program. The original site with FAQs doesn't seem to be active anymore so any help is greatly appreciated! Is the program still available? I have put a pic below of what I see once I unzip. Ok nvm I can't put an image in...
Hi, did you solve it? I would also like it, I would also like it.
The DMEditor project started 7 years ago..The final version was 1.1a.Windows only.
A MAC version was never completed and it seems every new OS from Apple breaks everything so it would be tedious to maintain.
To make it simple I attached the final version.It includes Elektron C6 and a couple .syx files from one of the members here who has extensive knowledge using it.
I tested in Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019 v1809 and it still functions properly.
I do not have an Original DM10 module , but there may be a few members that are still familiar with the editor.
Refer to these topics , which include the one you are currently in.
https://www.alesisdrummer.com/index.php?topic=2365.150https://www.alesisdrummer.com/index.php?topic=4240.msg42481#msg42481I recommend you back everything up before you begin.
FAQSettings changes in DMEditor don't take effect on the module!Is DMEditor using the correct MIDI output port? You can check this under Tools -> Options.
Make sure DMEditor is in online mode (Tools -> Online Mode should be checked).
I can change settings, but the active kit doesn't change (including the shift to Kit 100 on program load)!By default, the DM10 ignores kit change messages. You can change this through Utility -> MIDI (F2) -> Ext (F2) -> Prog Chng (should be set to 'RECEIVE')
I want to edit a kit between 0-99!These are the base kits in the module; if you want to change them, be my guest. You're not supposed to, though.
What are the limitations of DMEditor?Unfortunately, as the interface that Alesis has provided for controlling the DM-series modules is incomplete, there are several limitations that DMEditor must work around:
You are unable to save or rename kits from the PC side; that needs to be done on the module.
All save/rename functionality on the PC side relates only to the module/kit files themselves and will not show up on the module.
Any changes made on the module will not be reflected in DMEditor, as there is no way for the module to pass settings change messages back across the MIDI channel. This includes any sets you've already created, as well; you'll need to recreate them in DMEditor to be able to edit them.
I have the BlueJay soundset and want to use it! I can only select stock sounds.When starting the program, create a new module file and tell it you want to load the BlueJay soundset. That should give you the proper instruments.
What's the difference between .dmi, .dmk, and .dmm files?.dmi is a single instrument. .dmk is a full kit (including all the instruments). .dmm is a full module (includes all kits 100-199)
What do the checkboxes under the Tools menu do?If the 'Online Mode' checkbox isn't checked, any changes you make won't be sent to the DM10, even though it may be connected. This can be used to change settings while plugged into the DM10 without changing the module.
'Auto-Kit Change' does exactly what it sound like; if this is checked, changing the active kit in DMEditor will change the kit on the DM10. If it's unchecked, you can switch to a different kit without changing the DM10's current kit.
