Repertoire Help / Re: BeatBuddy MIDI integration
« Last post by arlo on Today at 09:52:10 AM »Thanks for the tip. Did you also change Settings > Audio & MIDI > MIDI Options > MIDI Preset Order so Raw MIDI is sent first?

MIDI Help / Re: Is there a limit of MIDI presets ?
« Last post by arlo on Today at 09:46:15 AM »Your keyboard documentation should explain how to select studio sets numbered 128 and above. Most likely you'll need to set one bank number for the first 128 studio sets and another bank number for the rest.

Repertoire Help / Re: BeatBuddy MIDI integration
« Last post by bktvc15 on Today at 06:55:25 AM »Arlo, I have a BeatBuddy and the additions to support it are fantastic.
One trick I noticed is that if you switch from Song A to Song B, and both Songs use the same drum pattern, you will notice that the Beat Buddy isn't in "start mode" its in paused mode (if you don't use the Outro). So playing live, what happens when you press the main pedal differs if the prior song was the same drum pattern or not.
So what I did, was in each of my Midi presets, where you set Folder MSB, Folder LSB and song#, I also added MIDI Raw FC so that it always sends a STOP when I select a new song.
Hope others find this helpful.

Repertoire Help / Adding missing songs to a Set List
« Last post by bktvc15 on Today at 06:45:30 AM »Hey, new to Bandhelper and really like it. I saw an older topic similar to this so if its been addressed, sorry for the duplication.
When modifying a set list and adding songs, it would be great if the list of songs to choose from indicates which songs are already in this set list.
The goal for me is to easily see what other songs I could add to the set list from. How its done doesn't matter, just a quick way to see whats not in the set list and add it to the set list.
Thanks Arlo!

MIDI Help / Re: Is there a limit of MIDI presets ?
« Last post by yamahap200 on Today at 03:17:57 AM »Thanks for the information, but if my keyboard/synthesizer is already using 127 Studio Sets (Roland) and I want to include the studio sets that are from 128 and higher, I don't see how I get around this issue because of how the studio sets are saved, it actually gives a number when saving the sound patches on the keyboard. I can technically save 512 studio sets on the keyboard but with setlist maker I think I'm limited to using 1 - 127. Looks to me that I will be forced to use existing midi presets for different songs that are similar in fashion. If this is the only way then I guess I have work with that.

When you get to the last program number in a bank, you can increment the bank LSB number and start over with the program number, and when you get to the last bank LSB number, you can increment the bank MSB number and start over with the LSB number. The lowest possible program would be 0 0 0 (MSB, LSB, program) and the highest possible would be 127 127 127.
