Also, there's nothing in the manual about it, so we'll fix that too. Typically the manual is the "spec" for how things are implemented. Steve will write the manual section before completing a feature as a way to ensure it all makes sense.
Hi All,
I can confirm that the Stop/Start (S/S) messages sent when turning Parts on/off are not the same for all four parts.
And I think they should be, I will ponder this over the weekend (see below), and fix it early next week. We NEED YOUR FEEDBACK!
To turn the S/S MIDI messages on/off use menu System Settings 1 - lower right box is "MIDI Out Start/Stop".
The choices are: All Ports - No Ports - USB A - USB B - USB C - USB D - MIDI A - MIDI B, default = No Ports
If enabled for any port(s), the Table below shows the "S/S" MIDI messages when the 4 parts are toggled. I added a couple proposed changes, 1 & 2. What are your thoughts on these?
Thanks,
Steve
