Midi Arrrggghhh

    Hi,
    Just got my Kemper today and I'm loving it. Sounds great.


    The problem is... I want to change patches on my TC helicon voice works so that each patch in performance mode brings up a corresponding patch for the vocals.


    I can't believe I've never had to get my head around MIDI before now.


    Any help would be greatly appreciated.


    :D

    Sounds easy, what are you using as a controller?


    Both KPA and TC gives flexibility to do it two ways, most options & flexibility using CC-commands and basic preset switching with PC commands.


    For the latter
    a) daisy chain the devices
    b) chech that both listen same (correct) midi channel
    c) observe the pre-programmed presets/performances/songs change when you step the controller ;)

    Thanks Julai.
    It probably is easy... just not for me:-) I'm using the Profiler remote to change patches
    So I've linked from the Kemper out to the Tc in with 5 pin Midi cable.
    Both are set to Midi channel 1
    Tc has several options for CC with are CC-Ctrl off, GM basic or Advanced.
    on the kemper I've set it so that it will change midi device 1 to change program and Im still not getting anything.
    Am i missing something obvious??
    Thanks in advance

    Cheers Paults


    Ive set the TC as an external device. I set it as 1 and set channel to 1 on both units.
    The KPA Performance slot is set to send a program change to 1 (seeing as its the first sound I need)
    There doesn't seem to be a way of setting an individual midi to each patch as the only controls on the TC are global.


    I am way out of my depth with MIDI

    Sorted it.


    Had to change the Midi send channel on the KPA to Omni and that it started working straight away. Not sure why it wasn't responding to the channel I had it programmed to. ????


    Either way it works


    So thanks very much for your help

    Glad you got it. Some devices start counting from 0. Maybe the TC’s MIDI channel “1” started from 0 and was actually 2.


    I don’t know that piece. Just a thought.
