Hi guys,
I’m new to the forum (recently bought an MC8).
I’m just trying to configure program-change up and down switches.
I’ve got some switches to send program-change of set-values (e.g. 20).
And then I wanted two switches, one to increase the program-change value, one to decrease it.
So I’ve got:
Preset A: PC Number Scroll - Update Only - Counter 0 - Value 20
Preset A: PC Number Scroll - Send Only - Counter 0 - Midi ch. 1
Preset D: PC Number Scroll - Decrease by 1 and send - Counter 0 - Midi ch. 1
Preset H: PC Number Scroll - Increase by 1 and send - Counter 0 - Midi ch. 1
My problem is:
Preset A works ok (sends PC value 20).
Preset D works ok (decreases PC value and sends).
Preset H doesn’t work (always sends PC value of 0…whereas it should increase the value and send)
It kind of looks like a bug to me, as the equivalent decrease-value switch works ok.
Any ideas?
I’m on firmware 3.8.7 and using the MC8.
I disconnected and reconnected there, it seems the same.
I also just tried using the online editor 1.1.5B here: https://editor-mkii.morningstar.io/ (was using offline editor before), but the same result.
If the problem persists then we need @james or @Brandon to weigh in! It’s such a common function I have a hard time believing it’s a big, it would have been fixed by now I would think.
Nothing else in the midi chain is there? Especially anything sending midi back in to the MC8? All very odd!
Could you show all the preset A msgs ?
Could you change all your press to release ?
Very strange I have tons of similar presets but using release or long press/release and never see this pb.
I just tested this (replicated preset A ,D and H) and it seems to work fine… Can you share with us your data dump file (controller settings >> all bank dump) so I can load it into my controller to see if I’m missing anything?
I tried changing ‘press’ to ‘release’, same result.
I tried a few other random things, changing it to a different footswitch.
Changing the counter variable used (from ‘0’ to ‘A’).
Doing an increase message followed by a send (instead of increase-and-send).
But same result for all. It just seems increasing the variable sets it to 0, no matter what I do.
I’m a new user too, and I was stuck with the same issue, and after changing scroll counter it worked.
Glad you it helped you .
I’ve used the scroll counters a number of times. I have a Nux Cerberus, and it has 3 reverb types that can be changed with CC37 and Values 1,2,3 , so I set up one Scroll counter to Min 1 - Max 3, and a long press flips reverb types. so cool. Only had this pedal a week and I love it.
