trying to control transport panel on emx1 via midi
Posted: Wed Feb 18, 2009 5:06 pm
Hello all,
I tried to find a thread that already addressed this issue and couldn't, so sorry in advance if this has been answered somewhere else.
I am using an Edirol PCR M30 to control my Electribe MX1, and am wondering if it is possible to assign the CC numbers in my midi controller to control the transport panel (play, stop, rewind) on the MX1 somehow. The MX1 buttons are not listed as having control numbers in the manual, and I haven't been able to locate these particular ones listed in any kind of midi literature.
Also, would this need to be some other type of message other than a control change message in order to work right? Is that why I am not finding them?
I have been trying to educate myself about this so far, but have come up short. I am more experienced with software, so usually I am more used to having the transports just talk to each other, and not having to set it!
