maiku1981 Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Hey Guys, just bought a novation launchpad that has 64 drum pads...i'm running MainStage with a concert that has 40 or so patches in it...what I'm looking to do is have each pad on the novation lauchpad act as a program change button to turn on different patches i've made. i was gonna label each drum pad with to say what the instrument it is... Novation said it can send and receive MIDI program changes which i need it to do but that it is a MainStage issue ill need to figure out...can anyone help? i use MainStage live with erykah badu & jay - z and would love for the launch pad to act as a virtual patch changer at the touch of a finger Thanks, Mike Feingold MainStage Mountain Lion 2012 macbook pro i7 16GB RAM 2 internal OWC 480GB SSD extreme pro's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elisedd.bradan Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 OK, maybe I don't understand your problem, but if you send out prg chg's MainStage will react to it with a patch change when it is enabled and the prg number is the corresponding to the patch. So please check if: - in the global folder (attribute) the correct MIDI device and channel is set - in the patch program change is enabled (patch information / attribute) and a working number is set - You transmit the correct program number with the pad (best use a midi monitor for that) If this is done it should work. I also use MainStage live with a FCB 1010 that basicly sends prg changes... cu Ellis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
