How to engage a pedal and bypass another one

Hello,
I would like te create presets that allow me to:
-engage a delay on Timeline Strymon but bypass H90 (or just A or B)
-engage an effect on H90 and bypass Timeline
-engage or bypass the both pedals

and of course it doesn’t matter what the status of the pedals is when I activate the preset on the MC6PRO

THANK YOU!

Assuming MIDI Channels:
1: Strymon Timeline
2: Eventide H90

1st Preset:
Sending PC 0 as an example to Timeline
Sending CC 0 with value 0 to H90

2nd Preset:
Sending PC 0 as an example to H90
Sending CC 102 with value 0 to Timeline

3rd Preset:
Engage Both Pedals

4th Preset:
ByPass Both Pedals

Hope this helps :slightly_smiling_face:

hello,
thank you but what is CC0 for the H90?

So I actually have never worked with an H90 myself but according to the manual I found online, it appears you have to actually configure the MIDI CC messages ahead of time. I would reference the H90 Manual and set the CC numbers to whatever works best for you. For starters you could go ahead and set CC#0 to control the Bypass of the footswitch.

  • The H90 has no default MIDI CC or external controller mappings, all mappings are customizable by the user.

yes thank you, I know that but it was just to be sure to understand your solution

Basically your pedals have CC#’s that are mapped by the manufacturer. The manual will have that mapping typically. Some of these are in the midi dictionary in the editor, so you just have to chose the pedal you want to send a message to and then scroll down till you find the message you want to send. In your case there are several messages that need to be sent. This will be the case with anything that you want to program. Every preset usually has several messages being sent at once. You will need to find them in the midi dictionary or find them in your manual in order to accomplish you programming goals.

Spend some time with the midi dictionary and see if it has what you need.

Hi, I wouldn’t recommend to use CC#0. That’s often used to change the banks of the PC# mapping. I’d start at CC#1.
