Title: Use Bluetooth MIDI controller for page turning in double page layout
Post by: joerg on October 29, 2025, 01:37:01 PM
Hi, im using a larger iPad in landscape mode for displaying two pages of a pdf score at once. I managed to configre swipe left and right to select the next or previous song and tap on bottom or top to change to the next or previous two pages inside a song.

I connected my iRigBlueBoard to control the pages by foot and configured "Next Page/Marker or Song" and "Previous Page/Marker or Song". But I observe following:

The "Previous" action always works as expected: Selects the previous song or the previous double page, if not on first page.

But the "Next Page/Marker or Song" does this:

- Selects next song, if the current song has only one page.
- Does nothing, if the current song has to pages (displayed as double page)
- Selects next song, if the current song has three pages and the currently the third is page is displayed.

So I did a workaround by configuring a third action "Next Song" for the case the current song has an even count of pages and I want to select the next song.

I have expected the action "Next Page/Marker or Song" would do the job. Is it a bug or have I missed an option?

I am experienced with midi controllers but new to BandHelper.
