Tips and Tricks / Remote controlling a Behringer...
Last post by Christoph - April 22, 2025, 01:10:57 AMOur band has just recently switched to a Behringer WING mixing console and it can be remotely controlled via OSC from BandHelper. It's really easy to get this working:
The WING receives OSC on port 2223. So in BandHelper you define an OSC device with port 2223. The IP address of the console can be found in its setup menu. Make sure that you set a static IP for the console or let your router always assign the same IP via DHCP.
OSC messages consist of the following three elements:
Example: Our violin player wanted a ,,tuning mode" where his violin is muted on the PA and soloed in his in-ear monitoring mix. This was easily programmed in BandHelper with two default MIDI/OSC presets: See the one that switches ,,Violin Tuning ON" in the screenshot. The other is the same with just the values 0 and 1 inverted.
Edit April 23: Use Paired Presets to quickly toggle between ON and OFF or different settings. @Arlo, thanks for the great tip!
A complete documentation of all OSC features of the WING can be found here on the Behringer website.
Documentation how to send MIDI/OSC in BandHelper is here in the BandHelper tutorials.

OSC messages consist of the following three elements:
- Address pattern: Usually a tree structure to address the parameter you want to change. For example, to set the ,,mute" status of channel 14 on the WING, the address pattern is /ch/14/mute
- Type: This is either Integer, Float or String. For example the ,,mute" status on the WING is an Integer.
- Value: For example, the ,,mute" status on the WING is Integer ,,1" (Mute on) or ,,0" (Mute Off)

Repertoire Help / Re: New Tonewood2 Amp app inte...
Last post by arlo - April 20, 2025, 09:40:02 PMHmm, that would be fun to play with!
As with any MIDI equipment, you can check the user manual for the product to see what it says about control from incoming MIDI messages, and if that's not clear, you can contact the manufacturer of the product. It is solely up to the maker of the product; if it doesn't support incoming MIDI, then no third-party interfaces will help you.

Repertoire Help / New Tonewood2 Amp app integrat...
Last post by AcoustiCafe - April 19, 2025, 06:17:13 AMHey folks,
Happy to report that I just received my Tonewood2 amp that I pre-ordered back in December for Christmas. If you don't know what it is, it is a device that mounts to the back of your guitar via a magnetic brace that installs inside your guitar with four little double-sided sticky tape circles (completely non-destructive & reversible). The concept (and reality, I'm happy to report) is that you plug your guitar into it, and it adds effects of varying types that vibrate through the back of your guitar so that they comes out of the sound hole with your guitar's natural sound. It's quite amazing and I love it.
So why am I posting this here? Well, outside of the obvious "way cool factor" that I wanted to share, the new version comes with an also way cool phone app. As I currently use BandHelper to control my acoustic floor pedal and mixer via midi, my natural next thought was, hmm, can I control the Tonewood app with BandHelper?
Does anyone have any suggestions on how I might go about finding this out? Is this solely up to the app developer or are there third-party interfaces that might help me here?
Thanks,
Jeff.

Repertoire Help / Automatic start of auto scroll...
Last post by Autostop - April 18, 2025, 08:02:17 AMHello!
I am using Airturn Duo BT-500 pedal for changing songs on my repertoire.I arranged songs with duration an auto scroll pre-roll which in of a big help for me.
Is there an option in BandHelper when I click for next song to automatic start of auto scroll pre-roll?
The meaning is that I don't touch my tablet when performing....only changing songs with pedal.
It frustrates me as I don't know if there if an option of automatic start of pre-roll or maybe an option that I can start auto scroll pre-roll with click on pedal on my Airturn.
Thank you for all the advices.

Other Help / App Control for Markers in Rec...
Last post by RaulGV1 - April 18, 2025, 07:47:42 AMHello Arlo,
months ago you implemented Markers in Recording, which is a great enhancement.
I also mentioned it will be great to enable Recording Markers in App Control, to be able to navigate to the different markers in a recording using a MIDI pedal.
Is that something you plan to implement in the future?
I see you have add a lot of new App Control options, which is great, gives a lot of flexibility.
Thanks and kudos for this great app.
Raul.
