The Midi setting on the BB and Aeros are default. I have two other devices on channels 2 and 3 and I use the Maestro custom mode to send PC messages to those devices.
The first device requires sending MSB/LSB and PC messages while the second device only requires PC messages.
Sending MSB/LSB with PC ‘0’ changes the Beat Buddy to the first ‘song’. Sending only a PC ‘1’ changes the BB to the second ‘song’. No other program changes affect it, which is confusing. Changing the BB MIDI IN setting from Omni to Channel 1 fixes this.
Only Channel 1 works with the Maestro in BB mode. I have indeed verified those command are sent on channel 1.
It is also clear with the Maestro in Aeros Mode those commands are sent on channel 1.
Is there no way to change the MIDI channel of either device without messing up the respective Midi Maestro Mode?
This is the question I really need answered. I have tested sending program changes to both the BB and the Aeros. The tested Aeros song uses an MSB of one, however it puts up an error message (can’t find MSB 0) because of the MSB 0 sent to the BB.
