microArrange as MIDI controller

Post by Gradius »

I'm thinking to buy one as MIDI controller (besides arrange of course).

Did someone use it as MIDI controller (for PC)? It was easy to map the keys, knobs, etc?

I did, but in a very limited way... meaning I connected it to my iPad (via iRig MIDI or usb w/camera connection kit, can't remember which!) and it ust worked... since I was using iGrand Piano I didn't use knobs or anything else than just the keys.

If you want I can do some specific test for you.

So it seems possible, my last question is microArrange capable to transmit the styles (or arrangers) via MIDI too?

Thanks for report.

I'm not quite sure of what you mean there.
Are you asking if you can send .PCG backup files of the styles via MIDI (I don't think you can) of if you can use styles to trigger external instruments via midi (e.g.: use another board's drums instead of KMA's)?
I think you can actually do the latter, but I'll try this evening when I'm back home :)
