I have a Bandhelper app that sends CC to AUM to flip certain channels on/off by selecting the preferred songs in Bandhelper. I can also manually flip those channels on/off by pressing my BU16 buttons. I would like to see the on/off status on my BU16 Button leds highlight or not. For this I need to setup the BU16 to listen to the Bandhelper CC commands. Does anyone have any idea how to fix this?
Hi there,
Does the Bandhelper setup send out any CCs to Grid when you switch tracks?
If it does, you’ll just have to configure the BU16 to listen to those type of messages and change the LEDs based on that.
Let me know if you could confirm that the Bandhelper properly sends out CCs on a trackchange. You could check this in the Editor Midi Monitor.
In IOS, Bandhelper does send out CC to AUM when I switch songs. Within AUM I can route anything to anywhere with a matrix route screen. So the BU16 should be able to receive CC from Bandhelper via AUM.
In Macbook, I’m not able to receive any midi info in grideditor when I connect my ipad to my MacBook though. I don’t know why. I did set the settings in my macbook in AudioMIDI setup, but I don’t see any messages coming in to GridEditor’s MIDI monitor.
To be clear, What is send from bandhelper to AUM is the following :
CC: 9D 01 7F for channel 1 On or
CC: 8D 01 7F for channel 1 Off
- 9D = AUM Channel On via MIDI 14 (8D = AUM Channel Off via MIDI 14)
- 01 = AUM Channel nr
- 7F = Velocity 127
I only need for the button from the BU16 to listen to the first two parameter ‘xD 01’ to highlite or dim the led.
So, if I can’t get it to work on macbook/GridEditor, I hope it will still work within IOS.
Bit of a hassle to unplug and plug the whole time, but if thats what it will take, I’m happy with it.
