Been searching but can't seem to find anyone with the same issue as I'm experiencing.
If this has been solved/answered before would be grateful for a shove in the right direction pls.
So... been working on my own Midi Foot Controller for Axefx 2 - v19.0 firmware.
Using a Teensy 3.1 with Midi IN & OUT (via 2 x 5 din leads) & Arduino code (Using mid LIbrary).
(Midi out is using a PC900V opto coupler).
Initially just using the Midi OUT (to Midi_IN on AXE) - I successfully managed to get working teh following:
Preset UP/DOWN
Bank UP/DOWN
BUMP toggle (changes teh Preset increment value between 1, 10 & 30 - for fast scrolling).
..all using CC & PC commands.
Also got an LCD display working to display Preset Number & Preset Name (via 384 x IF preset # = "xxx" the dispaly "YYYYY " statements - cringe!!!).
Then I stumbled upon SysEx msgs.
So I added a midi-OUT to my midi controller (connecting to the midi-IN on the AXE).
After a lot of fumbling I eventually manged to "read" the Preset Name from teh AXE & display on the LCD.
... by sending the GET PRESET NAME sysex & capturing bytes 6 to 26 of the corresponding returned sysex msg.
To my thinking - this success validated my midi-OUT circuit & my abilty to send & recieve Sysex.
Agree?
So I moved on to trying to display Tuner info on my LCD.
Figured all I needed to do was capture bytes 6, 7 & 8 of teh Tuner Sysex.
But for the life of me, just cant seem to capture anything other than the initial values when the code starts running.
I've read & read & believe I've configured teh AXE as needed.
ie:
- “send realtime sysex” on AxeFX is set to ALL (also tried on Tuner”).
- Tuner ON on AXE and on tuner page (ie page all the way to the left).
..anything else needed.?
Last night I installed Midi-OX & managed to see & monitor the Sysesx msg for the Preset Name.
But nothing at all for the 10 byte Tuner Sysex msg (or teh Tempo for that matter).
The Tuner msg is constantly broadcast - right? as long as the tuner is activated.
ie no request msg needs to be sent.
Can any one offer anything as to how to get this working pls.
Once I can capture the msg as it changes - I'll deal with displaying on my LCD - but just need to get over this initial hurdle first.
I'm sure its something really basic.
Help!!!
