Pads via midi

Post by pa4x_user »

Hi,

Wondering if there is a midi command to turn pads on/off?

For that matter, has anyone compiled a list of midi commands that goes beyond what is in the User Manual?

PS: I have had my Pa4X about 2 months now, and loving it. So easy to set up some really great style Songbook Entries (and using the Songbook+ iPad app to select entries, control variations, volumes, and so on).

Had 2-3 system freezes in that time (which is not a lot given how much I am using it).

It will probably be some SYSEX sequence BUT you could just use a MIDI monitor on your PC/Mac and see if the pad buttons generate MIDI messages - there are free ones available...
