At the moment, MIDI commands can be set up to be sent when a song is loaded, or a song can be loaded when a particular MIDI command is received. I would be open to adding a touch or pedal action to "Send MIDI Commands for Song" so that you could trigger the send based off tapping one of the corners or by pressing a particular pedal. I could also add an option in the quick action bar (bottom right corner) so that you can long press the right icon, and switch its action to "Send MIDI Commands for Song". This would require two taps though, instead of one.
Will any of these approaches meet your needs in the short term? Longer term, I would consider adding programmable buttons, but this would require a lot more changes than the simpler suggestions listed above. It would also be useful to hear from other users whether the ability to drop buttons on the sheet music to trigger certain actions would be valuable or not.
Thanks,
Mike
Mike,
While a button that could be dropped and moved would be preferable and probably more versatile in the long run (as buttons could be assigned to multiple actions), being able to tap in the corner to launch the MIDI string would also solve the problem for now and would be much appreciated. In this case, it would also be helpful to have some sort of faint visual cue (slight shading or a couple dark pixels in the corner that needs to be tapped) to indicate that the action is even available and has been programmed for that song. In the heat of a fast moving set with precise song transitions, I don't always have time for two taps, so the single tap solution sounds like a great idea. Thanks!
