Morningstar MC3 => BB => Aeros => L6 Helix midi

Aeros Loop Studio Help, Questions and Bugs
1

Appreciate the assistance in advance!

Signal chain…

Morningstar MC3 (controlling song up/down list to BB and Helix)
BB is master controlling Time/Tempo and song selection for Aeros (midi out setting Merge - In - ch10 / Out ch1)
Aeros is receiver (midi set to Thru - In ch1 / Out ch5)
L6 Helix receiving PC from MC3 for song up/down (In ch5).

  • Comms b/t the BB, Aeros and MC3 works well. Able to move up and down the song list on both devices, select songs, start/stop and keep time.
  • The MC3 does control the Helix for song up/down list when directly connected.
  • Issues begin when attempting pass midi from BB thru/out to Areos thru/out to the Helix. The Aeros does not maintain the “Midi=Thru” setting and resets to Off. Tried setting on the menu and wheel method (Rcv-Thru). The wheel method appears to be a one=time event and resets to Off. Also no Time Code is sent when set to Thru.
  • Setting the Aeros to Transmit does send midi and Time Code but I want the BB to be the Master and pass midi thru Aeros to Helix.

I am sure it is one or two settings preventing this config from working. It would be very beneficial to sync all three devices on the song and time.

Hi there, just to clarify when you are setting the midi thru are you doing this in the slideout menu or in the settings?

If you are doing it in the slideout menu, highlighting the setting does not select it, you must click the rightmost button to select the option and set the behavior.

@DanielSingularSound will likely get back to you soon, thanks for reporting

I’ve used both methods to set midi thru
