(06-03-21, 21:56)Hans - You have correctly described my setup. The Pi Pico, when connected to USB host of Pi Zero, is concurrently available as a MIDI controller and a USB mass storage device. I think samplerbox is looking for samples to load in CIRCUITPY drive available as USB mass storage device to RPi Zero. As there are no samples to load on CIRCUITPY drive, there is no sound. Please verify my understanding, if you can at your end and let me know possible workaround(s).For some unknown reason, I am not able to get 20200810 image working on my Pi Zero. The image does not boot. Thanks for debugging tips. Rajivhansehv Wrote: Hello rajivdeo,
First to verify I understand correctly: you connect the PiPico with its USB to samplerbox. Because of the circuitpython package it should be recognized as a midi device.
Does it derive its power from that same usb interface (=from samplerbox) ?
If my understanding is correct, then thanks for this interesting tip!
Now for your question:
  • Please use the latest=20200810 image from the Downloads page
  • Debugging is explained in debugging paragraph on the Build page
  • It may also be useful to download renewed midimon.py in the download area.
The console log of samplerbox start and/or midimon output should give some leads.

Regards, Hans
