I'm new to the Fractal ecosystem and frankly out of touch with guitar technology after not playing for 15 years.
I'm currently using GarageBand on a Mac just to mess around without paying for a decent DAW and unfortunately, GarageBand has no way to use external controls other then a keyboard.
My thought was to use a Midi Control Switch and set that up as CS1 with Latching and send that to the Mac via USB to then have that input translated to keystrokes which will control the application in focus..
However, I seem to only be getting continuous garbage from the Axe when I attempt to monitor the Midi signal.. and I cannot capture anything from it..
Has anyone been successful with using the USB midi setup on a Mac.. or should I just scrap the idea and use Midi-to-USB adapter? Or will that fail also?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.
