New features

  • Added support for muxonmux analog type in YAML configuration: this connection scheme enables the use of multiple 4067 16-channel analog multiplexers through just one analog input on MCU since multiplexers are controlled by a single "controller" multiplexer
  • Implemented LED indication of factory reset procedure (in/out indicators will now blink individually every 250ms)
  • Board will now be rebooted after restore procedure

Fixes

  • Fixed firmware update procedure on RP2040
  • Various fixes for serial communication (MIDI/touchscreen) on RP2040
  • Fixed potential factory reset on reboot if backup procedure has been performed
  • Fixed LED indexing on OpenDeck v3 boards

Improvements

  • USB connection is now disconnected immediately on factory reset to avoid potential USB lockups
  • Restore procedure is now a lot faster than before
  • Increased the database size for parameters on RP2040, allowing for more presets on larger boards

Other

  • Removed support for DMX
  • Removed support for bootloader on Arduino Mega (not enough flash)
  • Moved low-level UART implementation from OpenDeck project to core submodule
  • Added support for OpenDeck v3.1 boards and schematic / board design files
  • Improved the speed of hardware tests

New features

  • Added the new concept of internal program change offset (see #157 for more details)

Fixes

  • Fixed broken flash.sh script for flashing AVR boards

Other

  • Disabled DMX support on Teensy++ 2.0 by default (lack of RAM)
  • Disabled touchscreen support on Arduino Mega2560 by default (lack of RAM)
  • Added the ability to analyze the code with Infer
  • Logging format is now consistent between glog library and internal firmware logging
  • Refactored database access in various modules (implemented admin/user model)

New features

  • Added support for multiple shift registers for rows in button matrices (16x8/24x8/32x8 etc. matrices are now possible)
  • Added support for MAX7219 LED driver
  • Integrated board LEDs now blink during firmware update
  • Added support for OpenDeck v3 boards (A and B variants)
  • Added DMX support on nRF52 boards
  • Added firmware update support on nRF52 boards
  • When BLE MIDI is used, the advertised name now contains BLE acronym for clarity (e.g. OpenDeck BLE | nrf52840dk)
  • Added support for Arduino Nano 33 BLE

Improvements

  • Improved error reporting during custom board builds when multiplexer pins are omitted
  • Improved analog readouts from nRF52 boards

Fixes

  • Fixed some incorrectly defined pins for Adafruit ItsyBitsy nRF52840 board

Other

  • Moved most of the generic board code to core module
  • Reworked I2C support - supported I2C components can now use dedicated I2C channels instead of all components being on the same one
  • Moved integrated LED flashing on startup to application from bootloader
  • Misc refactoring of build scripts and board directory

New features

  • Added support for Bluetooth MIDI on nRF52 boards
  • Added support for Adafruit ItsyBitsy nRF52840 Express board

Fixes

  • Fixed DFU flashing via make
  • Fixed broken MIDI thruing (regression from previous release)

Other

  • Misc internal cleanups/improvements/reorganisation

v7.0.0

New features

  • Added initial support for Nordic nRF52840 MCUs (no Bluetooth yet - support will be added in future releases)
  • Added the ability to specify global MIDI channel for all components
  • Added the ability to specify "omni" MIDI chanel 17
    • For outgoing data, channel 17 will send MIDI messages on all MIDI channels
    • For incoming data, setting the channel to 17 will ignore the channel (eg. for LEDs this will make them listen to all MIDI channels)
  • Added "Only note off" and "Only CC 0" message modes for buttons: combined with omni MIDI channel setting this makes it possible to configure the buttons as "kill" switches to mute all channels if supported by the controlling software / gear
  • Reworked MIDI thru options (DIN to DIN, DIN to USB, USB to DIN, USB to USB)
  • Implemented double-buffering for DMX to avoid tearing
  • Added the ability to control DMX channels via SysEx
  • Added the ability to control DMX channels via connected components - DMX message mode can now be assigned to buttons, encoders and analog components

Fixes

  • Fixed broken indication of current preset

Other

  • Switched to tinyusb USB stack for ARM targets
  • Switched to GoogleTest framework for all tests for easier mocking
  • Simplified adding support for various flashing tools
  • Refactoring of build system, database, scripts and many other internal details
  • Reworked MIDI library to make it easier to add different transport mechanism and to simplify thruing across different transports
  • Added initial logging mechanism
  • Added clang-tidy infrastructure for code linting and to improve code styling consistency
  • Removed support for analog components on touchscreen
