Midi and Tap Tempo

Post by Roland »

I’m using DMXIS, and changing lighting patches from the MFC midi board which controls my Axe-FX II. Axe-FX is on midi channel 1. DMXIS is on channel 16. The MFC is configured so that when I change patch it sends an Axe-FX patch change message on channel 1, and a DMXIS patch change on channel 16. I have two tap tempo buttons. One for the Axe-FX (msg 14 on channel 1) and one for DMXIS (msg 110 on channel 16). All well and good. It has worked perfectly for years.

However I now need to consolidate on a single tap tempo button which drives both devices. The MFC will only send one message for a tap tempo button. How do I get around this? Can the DMXIS tap tempo setting (110 on 16) be changed? Do I need a different midi board?
