This is a cross-post from the GP Community, but thought I’d give it a try here as well.  I have Mobile Sheets loading lead sheets with a CC command from GP, but I’m having a hard time triggering page turns using buttons on my MIDI controller through GP.  Would be grateful for any coaching as I have a first rehearsal coming 12/29.

Here’s what I shared in the GP forum:
WeI’m embarrassed to say I just can’t seem to get this working. I’m missing something - I think in GP. I have lead sheets changing with each first song part in GP, sending CC messages on ch16, so good there.

Turning pages in a MS .pdf - not so good.
Here’s what’s working. I have 2 widget buttons in global rack receiving MIDI messages from 2 buttons on my Arturia Keylab. I’ve tried both widgets with no plugin and also pointed at loopBeMIDI out. Green midi light flashes.

Next, in the global rack panel, I’ve strung together a MIDI in block from the Arturia to a rechannelizer shifting ch1 to 16, then to a loopbeMIDI MIDI out block set to ch16 and a midi message sending the CC command (9,2, ch16).

I set up the same cc #s in MS for “next page” under the midi actions menu.
In GP wiring, the midi connectors are flashing, but I’m getting green and yellow in the upper rh midi monitor. I feel,like I’m missing something really obvious, but can’t see forest from trees.

Let me ask this - if you bring up the MIDI listen dialog (either on the MIDI tab of the song editor or when setting up a MIDI action), and you trigger the CC command (9, 2, ch16), do you see it received in MobileSheets? That's the first thing I want to identify. Also, under Settings->MIDI Settings, do you have the MIDI receive channel set to either 16 or Any? I just want to confirm this.

Thanks,
Mike

Thanks Mike!
I haven’t checked MIDI listen, but can confirm that when I set CC 9,2 ch 16, I can use the CC command from Gig Performer when I load a song there to open the corresponding sheet in Mobile Sheets - so CC messages are definitely making through to MS. 

Yes, I have MIDI ch 16 set in MS to both receive and send MIDI messages. I wonder, therefore if I’ve gotten something wrong with the MIDI routing in GP. I’d love to get this working, but I’m starting to think I need to drop back and try to use a dedicated trigger pedal on my Arturia MIDI controller as plan B. I can assign a pedal to ch.16 on the Arturia - that may be a more direct solution. I have a first rehearsal with this new digital rig coming up fast on 12/29.

Thank you for your coaching. This is an awesome piece of software that I’m really digging!

Sure thing - I'm always happy to help however I can. Hopefully with a simpler approach, you can get it all working.
