trigger azure 2k from midi foot pedal

[jaytech]

Hi i got an azure 2000 on demo today, I am looking to trigger scenes from a midi foot pedal but what is happening is that the pedals change pages or (banks) only, how do i go one step more to select scenes within a bank?

From the manual:

MIDI commands used by the Azure

The Azure uses standard MIDI commands. The usual name for these
is given in italics. All commands are given in hexadecimal notation
($9n), where ‘n’ is the MIDI channel number. So a note on command
for MIDI channel 3 for example would be $92.

Set playback page : program change ($Cn xx)

Code: Select all

Page  A   B   C   D   E   F   G   H   I   J
xx  $7F $02 $03 $04 $05 $06 $07 $08 $09 $0A

example $Cn $02 Console changes to Page B


Turn on a playback: note on ($9n pp ll)

Note number (pp) = playback number, from 0 - 49 (decimal)
Key velocity (ll) = playback level, from 0 - 127 (decimal)

example $9n $03 $40 Playback Fader 4 at 50% level.

Playbacks on buttons cannot be set at a % level, only playbacks on
faders (1-10 on each page).
(Note that Playback Fader numbers start at zero, so subtract one
from the number on the console to get the MIDI note number).


Stop/run/step a chase etc: after touch ($An pp cc)

Note number (pp) = playback number, from 0 - 49 (decimal)
Aftertouch value (cc) = control codes:
$00 stop chase
$01 run chase
$02 restart from step 1
$03 fade to next step using programmed fade times
$04 Snap directly to next step

Normally you don't need to worry about all the codes. The important bits are:

Program Change = Change Playback Page.
Note on = Turn on Playback.
Velocity = Playback level.
Aftertouch = Chase controls.

You need to look at the details of your controller to see how you set it up to output what you need.
