Footswitch pedal for changing patterns?

@Paulsvibes

it might be that i dont have a device that can send the proper type of CC or PC to the M:S even though i have the M:S that can receive the changes

If you’re still talking about changing patterns using MIDI Program Change messages, then you have two devices that can do that:

@PeterHanes

You can send a PC message from the Venom by changing its program. You cannot do so by pressing a key on the Venom (unless you have an additional MIDI processing device between the Venom and the M:S).

You could also send a MIDI PC message from the MIDI Mouse, by connecting it to the MIDI In port of the M:S and pressing the Up or Down button.

Just try it.

@Paulsvibes

I’ll try to see if my Venom by choice of Global Midi mode or just a midi channel can send a Program Change (PC) to the M:S.

It’s probably easier to work in Single Mode and set the Global MIDI channel number on the Venom. You need to set it to the same number that is set on the M:S for the PCH IN setting in the CONFIG > MIDI > IN CHAN menu of the M:S, described on page 40 of the manual.

As you said I don’t know exactly if I had the m:s in proper configuration hahahah but it’s working to do the midi mouse method:

But now this must means as u mentioned if I can use the venom keyboard midi to send a key message from 1-16 to the M:S is could change the pattern from whatever key I press to that pattern trig key number

That’s great!

You cannot use the Venom’s keys to change the pattern on the M:S without buying additional hardware. The only thing that would work is to change program on the Venom and then the M:S can also change its pattern.

@Paulsvibes

Yes transpose essentially a baseline note so it resumes playing the sequence but with a transposed bass note up or down musically.

As far as I know, you cannot easily transpose a sequence in the way you want with the equipment you have.

Ok, I was able to test both devices and it’s working but ideally I prefer the foot midi mouse method because it wouldn’t make sense to use the venom with all of its sound libraries and abilities i would not want to occupy it entirely up for just this single program change use. So this helps everything move forward productively.
Now I just need too get a hub midi in and thrus expander to make use of all my other devices.

Sincerely,

Thank you.
