Chase Bliss Mood: Saving presets onto the pedal

Question

MIDI Target Manufacturer(s): Chase Bliss

I created a layout for The Chase Bliss Mood MKII and managed to map pretty much everything.

But the one thing I was not able to implement was saving presets directly onto the pedal's memory via the app. Their midi manual says this can be done by sending cc 111, then the preset slot I want to save it to as the value. 

But I am not sure how to implement this. I think I could use the picker, but then I'd run into trouble if I did not stop on the exact number I wanted to save it into.  Is there a way to use the picker in conjunction with a button - so the picker picks the value and the button sends the cc message when taped based on that value?

Does anyone have an idea on how to get this working please?

Update: I added a page with save a recall buttons. But it would be great to implement with a picker and the method above since there are over 100 slots free.

Easiest is to use the send on release only option.

If you want to be absolutely sure you don't overwrite an existing preset, there are more advanced implementations.

Simplest is to add two buttons:
- first disables the picker while you select the correct number - toggle, no send/ receive, set as enable / disable button for the picker
- second sends the selected preset once you turn the toggle on - momentary, no send/receive, supercontrol, force not stepper, options as super, send current value

Disable button one, select the preset, enable button one, press button two to send, turn off button one.

You can do a one button solution using StreamByter.  In output rules module, store the output preset number, block the message, use a momentary button to transmit the value.  Is more complicated, since it need a few lines of SB code, but operationally simpler, since there is only one button to worry about.
