MIDI Target Manufacturer(s): Other/Unlisted Maker
Hello, I’m trying to make a controller to change the instrument for each channel in the Ruismaker drum synthesizer iOS app. Strangely, you can’t change the instrument within the app itself, you have to send it a specific CC value for each instrument, which can be assigned to any drum pad channel. The channels are selected using MIDI CC # 22-29.
For example, to change Channel 1 (the first pad) to “Hard 90s Kick”, you need to send MIDI CC # 22 with a value of 11.
I’m trying to figure out a way to have an interface that lets you select a pad channel, then have a stepper button step through the values of each instrument category, sending the correct value for each. From what I can tell, you can only have the picker send different MIDI CC for each named step, rather than have all selections sending on the same MIDI CC, but with a different value on each.
I may be overcomplicating this, but I’m also using this project as an exercise to learn this app’s more advanced features. I’d rather have an interface that lets you choose the instrument category by showing/hiding panels that have pickers with each instrument, and sending the correct value to the MIDI CC of the currently selected pad channel.
I’ll link my current project below. If anyone has any ideas how to make this work, I’d be grateful for the help.
