I just received my LCD panels and controllers from MIDI Boutique, and was able to easily configure them to work at the basic, prototype level. But I'm having some problems getting all the information I want, on display, and am not sure if someone can point me in the correct direction, or if I'm making implicit feature requests for things V6 can't yet do, or a bit of both! I'm looking to work at the OOTB/configuration level, not to descend into doing my own custom programming to parse MIDI messages ala an Arduino...
1) I found how to map expression/crescendo pedals to a display, showing their level/% setting. The configuration menu implies that the output includes identifying information, as do many display choices. For example, I'd like to see 2 lines that show "Swell Pedal 100% / Crescendo Pedal 0%". What I get is "100% / 0%" i.e. no labels to tell me what values those numbers represent. The numbers themselves are correct and tracking properly in real-time. Is there a way to display some identifying preliminary text?
2) I'd like to display the current IR Reverb Wetness % and the current Mixer Preset #, something like: "IR Wetness 34% / Mixer Preset 1", from the Audio Mixer, Routing,... panel. Is there a way to do that?
3) Each MGB display panel comes with a variable brightness RGB LED. Is there any way to control these from within present-day Hauptwerk? For example, to display the current state of a reversible setting, such as Audio and/or MIDI armed for recording, or to use color to indicate progress, such as loading vs loaded?
To Mssrs. Francois et Martin: apologies if these are properly feature requests. There isn't too much documentation about this feature set, and I'm not sure I can accurately distinguish between my lack of know-how and something not supported. I'd be glad to formally submit this to the suggestion box if that's the correct path.
