I am a beginner myself and I have a piece of advice for fellow beginners in either MIDI or MorningStar devices: DO use the Midi monitor available in the editor.
Trying to setup my MC6Pro with ML5 and Strymon Iridium and Sunset, with all the options of toggles, press, long press, double tap and so on, with toggle groups and toggle reset groups, there were moments I did not know why my setup was not working as I expected it to. Enter Midi monitor, a lifesaver for me and which I discovered after one week. It certainly saves a lot of time when debugging MIDI commands.
