Remote Button Midi Assign

No - you cannot assign a MIDI PC change to switch 5 in Performance Mode unless you also have a Performance Slot programmed for switch 5.

Hello,

I want to assign button 5 on the remote to turn on/off an external midi device. Is there a way to do this without it making a performance change?

Thanks

could you assign a duplicate performance in slot 5 so that Button 5 gives no audio change but sends out a midi program change. You could run your midi output through a midi converter to convert the midi command to another midi message or command. I do this using midi ox to convert prog change data to note-on data this way. Does mean employing a pc and a cheap windows xp laptop would be ideal.

Just in case ... if the external device is looped in via a Profiler Effect Loop, you could switch on/off the Effect Loop within the Profiler using one of the Remote Effect Buttons.
