New user here with a question about what is possible/how to achieve this in the FM3:
I've got an FM3 and I recently purchased an EV-1 to go along with it. I also have an IK Multimedia midi controller that I used to use with Amplitube, the "iRig Stomp I/O", which has four switches and an expression pedal built into it. I've read through the manuals and figured out how to connect it via midi cable, and set the assignments for the switches to operate as external controllers, but when I was reading through the manual, I recall reading about "stand-in switches" where external switches can operate like on-board ones & have set global functions. What I would ideally like is to have that board parallel to my FM3, and be able to incorporate those additional four switches into the main layouts (presets, scenes, effects, etc.) so I could do things like have my scenes layout have 7 available press functions available to me by default when I have my midi controller connected to it. Currently, I've only been able to figure out how to assign controls in individual presets/blocks to those switches.
Is this something that can be achieved with this setup, or am I misperceiving what "stand-in switches" are? If I am correct, where in setup do I go with a midi controller connected to make the switches operate as "stand in switches?" Appreciate any insight anyone has to offer, thanks!
