MIDI PATCHBAY MAC ANDROID

But, when I see your question posed as, in effect, “can I just use the Midi Maestro to do the floor pedal basics it does by default to control the Aeros and beat buddy,” I don’t think you can. I see no reason why the MM and MC6 could not be combined through a merged box to use, for example, the preprogrammed BB mode with the MM, as well as additional BB commands from the MC6. You could, again AFAIK, have a custom mode that had both Areos and BB commands on separate channels, but I have not been able to experience this. However, as far as I know, there is not yet a midi mode change, or a foot programmable mode change available.

Since then, the Android app has allowed programming of the “custom” or User mode, so commands can be sent on different channels.

To get BB accent hits as programmed in a song, the extension foot pedal was still required.Īs delivered, the MM had a BB and an Aeros “mode.” Both were on Midi channel one, which to me implied the pedal could only be used for one or the other at a given time. I found the MM to be a capable controller for the BB out of the box, although the “accent hit” function varied from the original BB function. Others with more experience using the Android app may correct or amplify the comments I am about to make. Since the IOS application has no yet progressed to a usable state for me, I can only give you my impressions based upon the use cases I have experienced. Hopefully in the near future and after becoming more familiar with the MM I may be able to just completely rely on it as a sole controller and i can remove the MC6 from the setup but for now I’m going to try and see if it will play nice with the other controller.

I have been doing this kind of midi merging for years with multiple controller devices so I would not expect their to be an issue but I don’t want to make any assumptions with the Midi Maestro. Has anyone tried this type of configuration and if so is their any reason the Midi Maestro would not work this way to strictly do its thing with the Aero’s and beat buddy but also be capable of receiving overall program/preset/song change messages from a midi pedal controller device like a morning star MC6. to all of the midi pedals which I have connected to the patchbay. Setup this way the hope is I can just use the Midi Maestro to do the floor pedal basics it does by default to control the Areos and beat buddy and use the MC6 to send program change messages, etc.

Anyway I also purchased a Morningstar MC6 MK II to control the other devices in my MIDI setup and plan on using a midi merger to connect both the MC6 and the Mideo Mestro to a merger/patchbay. Any issues with using a MM with a midi pacthbay/merger? I just purchased a MM but after spending time on this forum I’m not convinced I’m ready to go down the road of trying to use it to control other midi devices/pedals simultaneously, at least not yet in its current state of development and given what I read here about the IOS app in its current state.
