Pinned MIDI preset order

[WilburrUK]

If there are multuple pinned midi presets on a song (actually all songs, since they're pinned), the multi-preset button presents them in the order they appear in the presets list, and presumably, that's the order they're sent when some action (song select in my case) triggers the "Send Pinned Midi" action?

However, there seems to be no way to reorder the presets list either in-app or on the web, is there a way to do it?

A second slightly related note, when I have a preset with another preset linked to it, if I send that preset from a button, it cycles the actual preset sent, I presume that doesn't happen when I send the preset from an action? It seems not to, hopefully that's intentional.

And finally, a bit of a feature request. It would be nice to be able to set up a sequence of linked presets, which could be cycled with a single button, it would be even nicer, if the button text/colour changed to reflect the last preset sent.

Note: for context, all my midi presets are actually OSC messages sent to my mixer (XR18) to control mutes and FX channels.

Pinned presets are sent in alphabetic order, so if you need to change their order, you can manipulate their names.

If you are always sending all the pinned presets together, another option is to create a container preset and attach those presets to it and then you can drag them into the desired order within the container preset. And then you can pin just the container preset.

What do you mean by "cycles the preset"?

You can create a container preset and attach other presets to it and attach just the container preset to a song. Then if you click the container preset's button, it will become highlighted and all its attached presets will be sent.

Hi, Thanks for the response,
What I meant by "Cycle the Preset" is that on the first button press, the preset is sent, but if there's a linked preset, then on the second press, that is sent instead (then on the next press, the initial preset is sent again). I was wondering if it's possible to extend that to more than 2 presets in the cycle.

Container presets sound like an interesting possibility, but I don't think they can accomplish what I'm asking for.

You can only pair a preset with one other preset. That's meant for toggling a setting between two states (typically, on and off). If you want to step through a series of presets, you can attach them directly to the song and then use the Next MIDI Preset and Previous MIDI Preset app control actions.
