This app will therefore _not_ work in Firefox, Safari or IE. \n\nThe Chrome browser is highly recommended. \n\nThis app has mainly be tested with Chrome on a MacBook pro running OS X 10.11. Some tests have been done with success with Chrome under Linux Mint 17.1. \nThe application has never been tested under Windows. Any Windows feedback is very welcome.\n\nStill under active development. Feel free to log bugs/issues. This is a development I'm doing during my freetime. \n\n\n# Usage\n\n1. Open https://sysex.io/bs2/\n2. Allow the browser to use your MIDI devices\n3. If it's not already done, connect your Bass Station 2 to your computer.\n4. When the Bass Station 2 is connected the application logo will glow. \n5. Move a dial or a slider on your Bass Station 2, the corresponding on-screen control must move accordingly.\n6. Move a knob or a slider in the application, the corresponding parameter must follow in the Bass Station 2.\n\nThe logo glows when the Bass Station is connected and recognized by the application:\n\n![connected](/images/BS2-Web-connected.png \"Bass Station 2 connected\")\n\nBass Station 2 is disconnected:\n\n![disconnected](/images/BS2-Web-disconnected.png \"Bass Station 2 disconnected\")\n\n## Keyboard shortcuts:\n\n* A..G : play the corresponding note. Add Shift for sharp and Alt for flat.\n* SPACE : play the last played note\n* I : init\n* R : randomize\n* L : toggle latch\n* O : toggle arpeggiator\n* S (or P, or ESC) : stop the current note\n* Up, Down, left, Right : patch up / down\n\n## Features:\n\nDouble-click on any knob's label to reset the knob to its default value.\n\n![reset](/images/BS2-Web-double-click-to-reset.png \"Double-click the label to reset the value\")\n\n## Application Menu\n\n### Favorites\n\nOpen the Favorites panel. You can save and recall your favorites patches here. Your favorites are saved in your\nbrowser's local storage. No files are created. \n\nA favorite is simply a URL with the following format:\n\n    http://\u003cdomain\u003e/bs2?sysex=\u003csysex-data\u003e\n\nExample:\n\n    http://\u003cdomain\u003e/bs2?sysex=f00020290033000000000000000000006000004804037d7e0220100f777801004340200000ff7c00000000000f78000008200000077800004000000f700000000000126000000000001a4000202004001f190f6923797c7e3f1f5f6f70017c7e403f4f6770017c7e401f4000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000f7\n\n### Init\n\nReset the application and the Bass Station 2 with the default values (init patch).\n\n### Randomize\n\nRandomize the parameters according to the _Randomizer settings_ defined in the _Settings_ panel.\n\n### Sync\n\nSync the application with the Bass Station 2. This is done by sending a request-for-sysex to the Bass Station 2.\n\n### Load patch\n\nOpen a dialog allowing you to select a sysex patch file (file with `.syx` extension). One loaded the patch is sent to the Bass Station 2.\n\n### Save patch\n\nOpen your browser's Save File dialog to save the current patch as a sysex dump file (file with `.syx` extension). \n\n### Patch sheet\n\nOpen a new window with the current patch displayed in a ready-to-print layout. \n\n:bulb: With Chrome you can even easily create a _PDF_ file. \n\n### Midi\n\nOpen a samll window that will dump all the MIDI messages sent or received.\n\n### Settings\n\nOpen the Settings panel. Within this panel you can configure:\n- the **MIDI channel** to use to communicate with your Bass Station 2 \n- the **randomizer**\n\n### About\n\nDisplay the _About_ dialog.\n\n# Bass Station 2 MIDI messages\n\nThe MIDI parameters are documented in the official Novation Bass Station 2 user manual. \n\n## SysEx Dump\n\nThe application is able to receive and decode SysEx dumps coming from the Bass Station 2 (\"FN-Key _Global: Dump_\") as well as .syx patch files.\n\nThe SysEx dump format is not documented by Novation. I have reverse-engineered it and you can find the result\n in my other project [BS2-SysEx](https://github.com/francoisgeorgy/BS2-SysEx).\n\n# TODO\n\n- Panic button/key\n- Space bar to toggle play _DONE!_\n- A-G keys to play notes _DONE!_\n    - shift for sharp _DONE!_\n    - alt for flat _DONE!_\n- history undo/redo    \n    - record all changes over time and replay\n- better patches managment\n    - browse patches with auto-preview\n    - S key to save as favorite with lastname+index\n- better randomizer\n- wheels representation\n    - add sliders\n- arpeggiator support\n    - auto-chords (from a selected scale)\n\n# Credits\n\nClick on __About__ to view the list of libs used to build BS2-Web.  \n\n\n# Trademarks\n\n_Novation_ is a registered trade mark of Focusrite Audio Engineering Limited.\n\n_Bass Station II_ is a trade mark of Focusrite Audio Engineering Limited.\n\n\n# Useful links\n\n- http://beta.novationmusic.com/releases/bass_station_ii/\n- https://support.novationmusic.com/hc/en-gb/articles/206861739-How-do-I-Control-the-Arp-on-the-Bass-Station-II-from-an-external-Controller-\n- https://support.novationmusic.com/hc/en-gb/articles/207561465-How-to-export-User-presets-on-Bass-Station-II-\n- https://www.reddit.com/r/synthesizers/comments/3nh3pc/your_bass_station_2_tips_and_tricks/\n\n## Other BS2 editors\n\n- https://cycling74.com/projects/bass-station-ii-patch-editor\n\n\n# Recommended tools\n\n- https://github.com/gbevin/SendMIDI\n- https://github.com/gbevin/ReceiveMIDI\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrancoisgeorgy%2FBS2-Web","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ffrancoisgeorgy%2FBS2-Web","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffrancoisgeorgy%2FBS2-Web/lists"}
