Repertoire Help / Re: Issue with Live Sharing dr...
Last post by omygind - July 18, 2025, 11:28:26 AMArlo,
My input earlier in this thread lead to an update from you fixing the pop-up message that was blocking BH. Thanks :-)
However the other issues my report was describing like loosing connection and having reconnecting difficulties still exist just like other users are reporting in this thread.
I get the 'refused' message from time to time. Other times it looks like reconnection succeeds and "connected units" status says connected to the other ipad on both ipads AND 'Following events from iPadX'. Typically one of the ipads follow the other successfully both the other doesn't (even if the status says it does). In this case to get it correctly connected I need to select 'Refresh Broadcasting' on both and do the 'Follow events from' on both devices.

Announcements / Forum Emails
Last post by arlo - July 18, 2025, 10:10:03 AMMy web host started blocking outgoing email from this forum a few weeks ago, including registration confirmations and post notifications. It took a while to figure out what was wrong (the web host didn't notify me of this change), but that should be fixed now.

MIDI Help / Re: Anyone with a Studiologic ...
Last post by arlo - July 18, 2025, 09:19:43 AMThat chart doesn't specify if it uses the Bank MSB or Bank LSB message. If I had to guess, I'd go with LSB and leave the MSB field empty.
Do your outgoing messages appear in the activity log when you send a MIDI preset?

MIDI Help / Anyone with a Studiologic or N...
Last post by Scooter74 - July 18, 2025, 03:26:30 AMHaving MIDI issues with my Studiologic Compact 2 and sending control changes from BH to keyboard. I think I've got it all set up, it's receiving MIDI from the keyboard. It won't pick up the messages via MIDI Learn for some reason (although the codes show up in MIDI dialogue box. What messages do I need to put in the boxes in the Preset dialogs, MSB, LSB etc please to get it to work?

Repertoire Help / MIDI update / OSC trigger
Last post by LaLuneNoire - July 16, 2025, 01:50:52 PMYes, I almost can automate Gig Performer by sending OSC messages thru BH. But, I have 2 questions.
First: When I start BH I get the message to update my very old MIDI presets. But when I do, and push the button, nothing seems to happen. And I get the message again after starting BH again.
Second: I've managed to send OSC messages to Gig Performer with the ?GigPerfomer/SwitchToSong command using the songname in GP. But when I switch to a song in a setlist in BH by scrolling toe the right (or left), GP doesn't responds directly. I have to push the icon for MIDI in the song, to make GP switch. Am I making a mistake?

Last post by arlo - July 16, 2025, 09:55:43 AMIf you turn on Settings > Advanced > Use Alternative Keyboard Handler, does that fix it?
That setting was added in the latest app version 2025-07-11.

Repertoire Help / AirTurn - auto-connect?
Last post by joebear - July 14, 2025, 04:25:39 PMI have an AirTurn BT500|S-4 that I use with BH. There config is MacBook Pro (M1 Pro) running MacOS 14.7.4. Lately, every time I get to the gig, I cannot get BH to accept commands from the AirTurn unless I terminate and restart BH.
I am using emulated keyboard commands. Connection from AirTurn to Mac remains solid. But commands don't get to BH until I restart the app, then ensure that I click within the app using trackpad.
If if switch focus to another app, then switch back to BH, commands again do not make it to BH until I restart the app.
Is there anything I can do to fix this? Is there any way to ensure the app will accept commands at any time the AirTurn and there Mac are speaking to each other?

Last post by arlo - July 14, 2025, 01:41:58 PMQuoteThe main issue is, if one device is loosing the connection and reconnect, this device comes with the error message ,song cannot be found' and I need to remove the songs and add it again.
I think you mean if you add a song to a set list while a following device is disconnected, the song isn't added on that device. You can avoid that problem by viewing All Songs on the following devices instead of viewing a specific set list.
QuoteJust curious, what does the ,use new peer connections' mean?
That uses newer networking code, which is still in a testing phase, but so far it looks like it's more reliable than the older code.

Repertoire Help / Re: Issue with Live Sharing dr...
Last post by dr_rollo - July 14, 2025, 11:59:02 AMThe option to follow actions from is really cool and we're using it since over a year. The big benefit for us is, that we actually don't start with a predefined Setlist. We select the songs adhoc while the gig, starting with set a handful of songs for a set, then having a short break, set up the next set and so on. Sometimes I'm changing the order while playing a set or extend it by more songs. It makes the communication on stage quite easy. Nevertheless can every user switch to the songlist, or switch manually between the Songs.
We also have sometimes the issue with drops and session error. Using three iPads been controlled by mine as master.
The main issue is, if one device is loosing the connection and reconnect, this device comes with the error message ,song cannot be found' and I need to remove the songs and add it again.
