Title: Mixed up MIDI with the KeyLab mkii
Post by: thegearheart on December 30, 2022, 02:16:53 am

I'm having some trouble controlling my rig with my KeyLab mkii. The rig consists of these major parts:

• KeyLab mkii (as my primary controller)
• Elektron Digitone (as my brains/pads)
• Arturia Drumbrute (for analogue drum goodness)
• Behringer 2600 (general purpose lead)
• Pedalboard with various MIDI pedals

Here's how it's connected:

KeyLab mkii -> Digitone MIDI IN

from there:

Digitone MIDI OUT -> Splitter -> Drumbrute, Pedalboard
With this port, I've been able to send START/STOP messages to the DrumBrute and PROG CH & CC messages to the pedalboard (NightSky and Ottobit Jr., for reference). These messages were sent by my Digitone. I haven't been able to get CC messages from my keyboard to my pedalboard (sending on/off or bypass, for example). I want to be able to map my keyboard faders, encoders and toggles to the pedalboard through the DN, but no such luck yet.

Digitone MIDI THRU -> Behringer 2600
I had to move the 2600 to the MIDI THRU because I couldn't get note messages on it otherwise. That's good, but it's not taking any note messages from the Digitone, which is a problem.

Stuff I can't do that I want to do

• Start / Stop from KeyLab

Pedalboard
