one button to send note on msg and specific cc msg?

So if I understand you correctly you want to press on a button so that one note on message and a specific CC value are sent?
If it's really a specific value and not a variable CC I think it's possible.

What I think you need to do is the following:

- Create a button and make it a super control.
- Create a button A that sends a Note On message.
- Create a button B that sends a specific CC value.
- Make button A and B a sub controls of the super control button.

That's a beginning. So no, it's not easy. It's a bit of work.
Now, if you want to make more buttons like that you you first have to make sure that the steps I described give you the result you want. Then just repeat the steps I described.

There might be another solution, but then Admin will have to chime in. Or someone else.
Thank you.  I was trying to have A control B, not third Supercontrol button to both A + B.  Can I have the 'A' button and B buttons be on a different page than the Supercontrol buttons?  Because in this setup case, I would really just want a bank of Supercontrol buttons that will allow to send both messages.
You can move them to another page if you want, but it's not strictly necessary. You can choose to hide them in Performance.  There is a button for that. I am not behind MD now, but when you select a button and get the properties window for it in one of the pages there is a button called Hide In Performance or something. This will hide the buttons you choose to hide.

But if it's too many buttons on one page then just put them on another page.
