Hey you guys, I’m using program changes features from my Play + to Arturia Minifreak and it is working, but even reading the manual i’m not able to understand how to configure bank select to choice the presets above 128
The MiniFreak needs a Back Select MIDI message for Banks B to D which the Play does not transmit as far as I can tell. It might be possible to to switch to Bank C on the MiniFreak, and then have access to the 128 patches in that Bank, But I do not believe you can sequence and address all 512 patches at the same time.
I don’t know anyhing about the synth you’ve mentioned, but I had success accessing program banks with various software synths. A bank select message is usually just MIDI CC 0. So, if you send MIDI CC 0 = 2, bank 2 will be selected. The good news is that yoy can send any CC you need from the Play. Just configure one of the knobs to send CC 0 in MIDI CC mappings. If your synth follows the convention, you’re lucky.
