Hi,
Is it possible to trigger a scene in the master page with MIDI without having to build a midi console? I do not have an actual MIDI controller, but I am sending midi commands to Compu Show from some other software.
I tried right clicking the scene button and checked the scene settings, but could not find an option to simply trigger a scene with a MIDI command without having to use the link to console options.
I set the MIDI command for the button activation option by holding the shift key, right clicking, choosing link to console and selecting Button activation. A window popped up requesting the midi command. I then sent the midi command from some other software and the MIDI request window closed. I assume this indicates the command was successfully received. I then send the MIDI command again to "button activate"/trigger the scene, but NOTHING happens.
After about 30 minutes of trying I gave up and loaded a MIDI console. I was then able to use the Select a Button method to link the Midi command to a virtual MIDI fader that triggers the scene. 2 problems came up. When the MIDi button is active, I cannot click off the scene in the mater page, It's a real pain. 2, I will need to setup a midi controller with 60+ buttons to make this work.
So can anyone assist with this issue. Should I really have to setup a MIDI console/controller to achieve what I'm trying to do?
