START/STOP with CC# Problem

Post by jkrisanda »

Show Buddy only 'Starts' after sending CC# (26) twice? Am using MainStage DAW for play out of tracks, and disabled SB/audio. MIDI foot pedal (Roland FC-300) is sending CC#26 to MOTU interface to trigger PLAYBACK. That works fine. However, I can't get it to start Show Buddy as well with the same command?

This is effectively stopping me from using this product ... which I think is awesome, and programming is a breeze.

Need help PLEASE! :(

No problems here starting & stopping Show Buddy 1.5.3 from CC#26 (tested with a Korg nanoKEY2)

Perhaps your Roland FC-300 is in latching mode? In this case, every second press would be a CC26 with a value zero (which would be ignored by Show Buddy)

I can change the value in Latching Mode that works fine for MS. Would that work if set to 64 or 127?

Any CC value greater than 64 will suffice as a trigger.

To David ... thank you so much for your help. With my Roland FC-300 foot pedal, all I did was program my existing stomp button to send CC#26 at 65 instead of 0. Now it starts/stops both Mainstage tracks & Show Buddy successfully.

One happy camper!
