- Add configuration file system to remember MIDI device selection
- Load saved MIDI device preference on application startup
- Automatically save MIDI device selection when changed
- Handle device disconnection gracefully with fallback
- Smart initialization with validation and error handling
- Create config.json for storing device preferences
- Improve user experience by eliminating need to re-select device
- Add MIDI port detection and listing functionality
- Create dropdown widget for MIDI controller selection in GUI
- Implement dynamic MIDI controller switching without restart
- Add refresh button to scan for new MIDI devices
- Add status indicator showing connection status
- Add comprehensive error handling for MIDI operations
- Fix initialization timing issues with GUI widgets
- Support graceful fallback when no MIDI devices available
- Add pattern name mapping to translate between MIDI handler names and GUI display names
- Fixes highlighting for patterns with underscores (sequential_pulse, alternating_phase, n_chase)
- Now properly highlights selected patterns in the button grid
- Add missing self.n3 = 1 attribute to MidiHandler initialization
- Fix update_rgb async function to properly yield control with await asyncio.sleep(0)
- Resolves TypeError about expecting coroutine but getting None
- Application now working properly with buttons and dials functional
- Comment out all debug logging statements to reduce console noise
- Fix empty if/else blocks by adding pass statements
- Remove beat logging, TCP server logging, and MIDI debug messages
- Keep only essential info, warning, and error messages
- Revert radiate delay separation back to using main delay parameter
- Send all parameters when pattern changes (may require 2 packets if >200 bytes)
- Send periodic parameter updates every 8 beats to keep bars synchronized
- Beat packets remain minimal for performance
- All packets stay under 230-byte limit
midi: bind patterns to notes 36+; beat triggers selected pattern; include n index; CC map: 30=R 31=G 32=B 33=brightness 34=n1 35=n2 36=delay; send n1/n2 raw 0-127
gui: show n1 and n2 in status
