I moved and renamed this as we are going OT but in a good way
.
Hey Harley, the other one (and the one I meant) Pedal Pot Range (9 + 5 on your MXC). It needs to be set for each CC pedal in each pedal input P1 & P2 (to adjust for any small differences in the specific pedals pot range). So if you assign it to master vol it gives you the full range of the MP2 volume. If though the MP2 is louder without the pedal (than with the pedal and pedal full on), then that's an issue to keep in mind. I'll check mine, you may be on to something here, when my MP2 goes gah gah from low generator power, it sometimes drops the pedal <> master vol global assignment, and I do recall without the pedal it "possibly" did seem louder.
Hey MJMP, I got the CC going with the MB1, it's not an easy read those vers 2 release notes. The concept is probably better explained in the MP2 manual as it's much the same and it has some diagrams IIRC which help get your head around it.
So I assigned a CC pedal to volume (it does both tube and SS masters as one and keeps their relative setting to one another). It works but a little differently to the MP2. Well thinking more about it, you can do the same thing with MP2 but MP2 has additional overall "global" master vol.
So when you change patches with MB1, they start at their programed master vol, you have to sweep the pedal for it to take over for that patch at that time. This makes sense as you are adjusting "that patches" master vol.
With the MP2s additional master vol, if you sweep it to off, it stays there (or wherever you have the pedal set) no matter what patch is selected (which I find handy)
I also assigned the chorus on/off, now chorus had to be on in that patch in the first place and again it's patch dependent, if you change to another patch and then back it will be on again. This is the same with MP2.
Some notes for MB1: The CC controller numbers in the "Pallets" have to be assigned, and the MB1 defaults don't match the quad switch so I had to assign Pallet 8 (Chorus toggle (BTW it says Pallet 6 in the release notes, that's a typo, it P8)) to a quad switch button, I picked button 3 which by default is CC# 66. So now anytime I select a patch with chorus on, I can press button 3 and turn it off.
Pallet 9 is the Edit Pedal, it needs to be assigned to the CC pedals CC#, in my case 31 (MB1 had it assigned to CC#7
). This is a "fixed" pallet for master vols. So in Internal or Midi preset mode you press Store then Bank + 7, then 9 (selects P9), then use arrow keys to select 31, press store (exit and store). Now when in any patch (not fact presets mode) sweeping the CC pedal will grab onto and control the master vols for that patch.
This is as far as I went for now, you can assign CC to up to 8 audio parameters from each pallet (and really get a headache
)
