I’m having an issue when changing banks as I want to automatically load presets.
Let’s say I want to bank up from 2>3 and then bank down from 3<2 and always have a preset engaged when entering the bank.
This works the first time, the second will not, the third time will work again, and so on.
I looked at the video tutorial " Bank Presets: Send MIDI Messages by Entering or Exiting a Bank" but for whatever reason, it won’t work on my end.
I’m running two Empress pedals through an MC3 - firmware 3.8.8
I’m attaching screenshots with my settings.
Hey Doru, so that we can diagnose the problem, what do you mean it only works the first time and not the second? Does it only work going from 2>3, and not 3>2?
I think this might have to do with the preset toggle settings. On your first try, only the Pos 1 messages engage. On your second try, it should only be the Pos 2 messages engaging. Did you check in the MIDI Monitor?
James, you are right. If I do not use the toggle option everything works fine, but the toggle option is really helpful.
I spotted what is happening in the MIDI monitor but I do not know what and where to fix.
I’m attaching a screenshot with my MIDI monitor.
Try making the same messages for Pos2 as Pos1, or setting them all to Both (then turn off Toggle Mode and add a Toggle Preset message on Press to keep the Blink). Right now it seems you only have the one message on Pos2, which is why it’s only executing that message every other time.
How about adding an additional Set Toggle message on entering the bank, before the engage preset message, so that you can clear the toggles before the preset engages.
It works and I want to thank both of you for the support.
Toggle Mode is now set to OFF but I have a toggle preset action as Quasar suggested.
I’m attaching a print screen with the current state hoping to be of use for someone who might encounter a similar issue.
the first is a sort of menu which is supposed to direct me to other banks.
What I would like to do is that when selecting a bank, preset A of the selected bank is active. (It’s a boss OD 200 preset).
On the other hand, I would like, once this bank is activated and the desired preset selected (boss OD 200 lit), to be able to activate and deactivate the boss of the OD 200 each time button A is pressed.
I haven’t use the program for quite a while now and I do not know all of this by heart.
I’m sure I stated in my post what worked for me and I attached a screenshot at the time.
My suggestion is to try comparing your settings with mine, see if you can discover anything.
I went to bed at 4am and got up at 9am so it’s only been an hour and 40 minutes. So I haven’t had time to edit my message on the forum yet. I did some research late at night and came across a video that helped me solve the problem, with the message “enter bank”. So sorry for the inconvenience. In any case, it was a good idea to implement this kind of message, what’s more, it saves several messages in the preset editor.
