I have some presets that have a “volume” block on them and I’m using the MC8 to switch between these presets. I am using an expression pedal to control the volume. The issue is, when I switch presets I want the volume to be set to its default value regardless of what the state of my expression pedal is in until I touch the expression pedal, at which point I want the value coming from the pedal to take over. Currently when I switch presets the volume immediately gets updated to be in sync with the expression pedal without touching the pedal.
Does anyone know if there is a way to make this happen?
Can you share a screenshot of your programming?
I just have a volume block in my quad cortex that is setup to use basic “expression pedal control” and the expression pedal is pretty much setup the default way in the MC8 software. I’m starting to think this may be something I need to resolve on the Quad Cortex using its expression pedal options but I’m struggling to find the correct combination of engage/disengage settings haha
That’s probably the case. I believe the mc doesn’t send a cc when switching presets unless you move the expression pedal. I think it is the Cortex that is reading the expression value from memory.
I don’t own a Cortex. I’m sorry I can’t be of much help
A bit clunky, but can you send a CC along with your preset to set the volume?
Thanks moley! That did what I needed. I can just send the initial value of 0 when changing presets and it holds that value until I move the pedal!
