I assigned one of the footswitches to bank up when you press it, and to bank down when you hold it. This is working great, and I love this functionality to consolidate tasks into one switch.
However, when scrolling to the bank down, the difference in milliseconds between scrolling down one bank and scrolling down two + banks is very minimal. That is, when I hold the switch, I have to time it very carefully so that it only goes down one bank.
I was wondering if there is a way around this? I tried adding an additional conditional message at the end to "do nothing" hoping that it would end the sequence of messages after one bank down. However the bank down message doesn't end until I let go of the footswitch. So this plan didn't work.
Maybe I can change the switch sensitivity?
Any suggestions, or is this just how it is?
Thanks for the reply, James! Sorry I missed this.
I set up my switch when pressed to "Set Bank" and then set it to b + 1 (where b equals current bank), and when held to go to bank b -1. This ensures that it stops after going down one bank, which is good. But then I can't scroll through multiple banks at once.
I also tried setting up a separate switch to bank down with a press, rather than a hold, and it seems the bank down function is much more sensitive than the bank up function. Is that the case? If so, is there a way to update that "bug" in a new firmware release?
Hi!
You could decrease the switch sensitivity but this will also increase the delay between when you press the switch and when the message is sent out. If you are not using the MC6 for any time-sensitive applications, that would be fine.
You can also consider adding a delay (see Conditional messages) after the bank change message.
Do let me know if either works for you :)
