    Axe-Fx III w Morningstar MC6 MKII - Looper issue

    Ah, that reminds me. The device ID might have changed on the III. We'll take a look and update accordingly once I get more info.. @is9582 did you get the tuner function to engage/display on the AxeFX though?

    Axe-Fx III w Morningstar MC6 MKII - Looper issue

    Try going to www.midimonitor.com and take a look at the out-going midi messages when you press a switch. Are they what you expected? Could you share a screenshot of it to us?

    korg pa4x /dead spot on expression pedal

    It's probably using a logarithmic potentiometer which would work well as a volume pedal. But when you try to use it an expression, your device is reading the values in a linear fashion.

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Sounds like it will work . I would really just recommend going with what you're most comfortable with though :p
  12. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Sure, just have that aux preset be set to Set Bank, to change bank to the looper bank. And then the same preset in the looper bank to Set Bank (to last used bank or a specific bank number) to jump back or to any other bank. There's an option for last used bank.
  13. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    How about an external aux switch just to do the aux stuff like enter/exit looper mode, change banks etc. Of course if you need another MC6 I'm not going to discourage that ;)
  14. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    You could adjust the switch sensitivity (main config menu) to the highest setting (5). This will reduce the delay to a bare minimum. Alternatively, you could use the Looper mode, and have a dedicated "Bank change Mode" preset copied to all banks. So once the device is in looper mode, you can...

    Could you get in touch with us via email? We'll troubleshoot it with you there. Thanks!
  16. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Try connecting the MC6 via USB and then going to www.midimonitor.com to see what values are coming from the MC6. The MC6 should be sending an incremental PCs referenced by an internal counter.

    How I use my AX8 ... (+ presets)

    Yeah, the Hold Delay sends a first CC message on button press, and then a second one if the switch is held down. We might make some changes to this in the next firmware.

    Preset Program on AX8 and Morningstar MC-6

    Hi! You can find the info here: https://morningstar-engineering.gitbooks.io/mc6-midi-types/content/chapter1.html You could also paste your settings here so we'll know what went wrong.
  19. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Thats right. If you're editing preset E and you hold down "PASTE", it will paste to all banks for preset E only.
  20. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Yes, that can be done via the onboard edit function. Just select your preset (or exp), press D+F (or A+C for exp) to go into the edit screen, and then select COPY. And then select another preset and press PASTE to paste from the last copied preset. Hold down PASTE to paste it to all banks.
  21. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Yup, it's across banks and you can still use an external switch to change banks. The lock will remain unit the unit is reset
  22. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    There's a bank lock function you can toggle by pressing B+D

    We just added a new feature into the v2.5 beta firmware. The Name Toggle feature allows you to switch between different words like "Play" and "Stop", "On" and "Off" by using placeholders in your preset name. It can also show the PC number if you are doing PC scrolling. If there's any other...

    MC-6 issues with Axe-Fx Mark II and Boss GP-10

    Troubleshooting: Try disconnecting the midi cable from the AxeFX midi out to the MC6 midi in. Are you able to get both to work this way?

    Bit of help & advice [Can I use the MC6 with an MFC?]

    Yeah, the buttons are the back row are higher than the front. You'll need an internet connection to access the web editor, but if you already have it open, it'll still run if you disable your internet, as long as you don't click on Refresh. We've also got a desktop editor that does not require...

    How about using the PC Scroll Up/Down message type on the MC6? That would allow you to scroll through your preset on the AxeFX

    Not at the moment.. On the todo list for sure :)

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Thanks @bobmichigan ! In case some users are not aware, we've got the v2.4 firmware available with a host of new features, as well as compatibility with the new web editor. The Desktop Editor should be ready by Jan 2017. @MrGuitarabuse Thanks! Yours is going out today :)
  31. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    The MC6 can be phantom powered so the 7pin midi cable will work fine :)
  32. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    @Guitarwildman For your Play/Stop, how about using a CC Toggle Hold Delay instead? That way, your loop will play when the switch is pressed down and released, and to stop (which is not as timing critical), you can just hold down the switch to send the second CC message.

    There's no song/set list function. The MC6 stores all your 12 presets into banks of 30. How would a song/set list function work in this case?

    We are implementing custom SysEx in the next update. Does anyone here have a use case for sending custom SysEx messages to their Fractal?
  43. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    The screen will hang because the MC6 is reading that a switch is being pressed down. That will mean that the Tip or Ring of the stereo cable is short to ground. So either the stereo cable or FS7 has an issue and is pulling the signal to ground. Of course, we won't rule out that this issue might...

    We're are adding CC msgs in MIDI in for bank up/down but we'll take note of that (using PC msgs to call different banks) in the next (or following) release:)

    Any MIDI Pedals that support AX8 style Hold and Page functionality?

    Yes, you can split the 8 midimsgs per preset into 2 blocks with the "Conditional" midi type, and then send the first block when switch is released and/or second block when switch is held down. This type allows you to send different midi types like CC, PC or note. Alternatively, there's...

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Thanks for sharing @ishan82 ! Just FYI, since you are using a 2 switch external aux controller, you can step on both aux switches together to call another preset (if you're comfortable with that:P)
  49. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Yeah you could do all those! I believe we have answered your email regarding this :) Just to add, you could save on switch space by using the "Conditional" functions, and do stuff like: PRESS and RELEASE switch 3 to ON Drive, and PRESS and HOLD switch 3 to OFF Drive. We have not drawn up a...

    I'm not familiar with the beat buddy. Could you share how the Start and Stop message works with the beat buddy? Currently, the MC6 sends the midi clock signal with a start and stop. If there is a use case for having a seperate Start and Stop message, I'll add it in before the new firmware...

    Can the Disaster Area dmc4 recall presets on AX8?

    Hi thanks for the support guys. For clarification, we have now made all the features on the MC6+ a standard and renamed it simply as the MC6 instead. Also since someone asked, here is a link to a video, showing the features of the MC6. Cheers!

    I haven't experimented with this phantom power thing yet and am not sure if you can feed a DC signal into the AxeFX phantom in.

  69. MorningstarFX

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    At this time, MC6 cannot be powered by phantom power (does not have a rectifier for the AC signal) . I'll look into adding it as an option in the near future!

    MC-6. Small, fully programmable midi controller

    Yes, you can program your midi parameters in different banks and then switch between banks to invoke different presets. There is a quick bank select mode (Switch D & E) that will allow you go view 6 banks on the screen (1-6, 7-12, 13-18 etc) and then quickly jump to that bank by pressing the...
