Can midi keyboard sustain pedal control guitar stomp box wah pedal

Does anyone know if a midi keyboard sustain pedal can be used to control a guitar stomp box variable.  Specifically the controller pedal for the "wah" pedals. Many thanks!

Sustain cannot control Wah, because a sustain pedal only sends out value 0 (up/off) or value 127 (down/on). You need an expression/volume pedal, that sends out continuous messages from 1 to 127, which is what you'ld need for operating Wah.

  • How can labview update the string control (text-edit box) after we have pressed the carriage return key on the keyboard during text-editing within that box?

    Dear readers,
    I have been trying to work out how to get labview to detect the event when a 'string' control has been modified, where the user has finished editing the string either by 1) pressing the enter key on the keyboard, or by 2) taking the focus away from the string control again. For example.. if I use the mouse to click on the string control and then I type 1234 into the box, I would like to have a routine that does something once the user hits the Enter key of the keyboard, or when the user takes the focus away from the string control again by clicking on something else. I would like the routine to respond even when the user didn't change anything in the text box (such as when we mouse-click on the edit box to go into edit mode, and then mouse-click on something else to remove the focus with no changes to the contents in edit-box).
    The purpose of my routine is to have a edit-box for a user to change for example the centre-frequency of a vector network analyser, so that the centre-frequency of the network analyser can change once the user finishes entering a new value in the text-edit box by hitting Enter key after the number is keyed in. Even if the user has clicked on the edit box, but changes their mind by mouse-clicking on something else to remove focus from the edit box, I would still like labview to detect the event when the control loses focus, so that the centre frequency can be updated anyway (to the same value that was already in the edit box).
    So far, I've tried set the string control option to 'limit to single line', so that I can try to scan for a carriage return .. '\n' ... pattern in the string. Unfortunately this doesn't work because labview doesn't seem to attach the '\n' to the end of that single line.
    Could someone please suggest ways to set a flag when a user hits Enter during text-edit mode of a string control, or when focus has been removed from the string control?
    While I've only described my problem for controlling a single control parameter on the gpib device, I'd like to make this feature work so that I can do the same kind of thing with other control parameters as well.
    Thanks so much in advance.

    Hi Kenny,
    instead of using the event structure, you can directly achieve to what you want by the KeyFocus property of the string control.
    - Enable Limit to single line option
    - Create the property KeyFocus in read mode and connect an indicator
    Each time you click on the string to modify it KeyFocus is True; when you click away or hit Enter KeyFocus is False.
    You can toggle your settings when KeyFocus changes from True to False.

  • Guitar Rig 3 - wah pedal not recording...

    Hi there
    How do I get Guitar Rig 3 to work so that when I use the Kontrol for wah, it picks it up? At present Logic is just recording the raw sound.
    Thanks!
    Steve

    Doesn't the GR manual describe how to do all this?
    From memory, the issue is that you are recording onto an audio track with GR on it, and twiddling the pedal sends MIDI info, which obviously can't be recorded onto an audio track (because it's MIDI). And the effects of the pedal won't be printed into the audio, because you ar printing the guitar sound before it's processed with GR, so it's just the dry sound.
    If you want to print GR, you can use it on an input channel, rather than on the destination recording track. This uses GR pre-tape, and thus the audio from GR is recorded, not the dry guitar signal (you could always record that as well, to give you options).
    Lastly, you could probably also record-enable a MIDI track and record the MIDI data the pedal sends during the performance, and play it back to GR to replicate your pedal moves...
    But I'm sure the manual talks about all this...

  • How can I use the sustain pedal of my MIDI keyboard (novation launchkey)?

    How can I use the sustain pedal of my MIDI keyboard (novation launchkey) in a normal way? The tone holds itself and I stop this by using the sustain pedal? I need help

    There are two types of sustain pedal... One's with  + polarity and ones with - polarity
    The sustain pedal you are using, has the oppostie polarity from the standard.. which means when you press it it acts as if it is not pressed and vice versa...
    Unfortunately, unlike a lot of keyboards...  the Launchkey doesn't provide a setting that allows you to correct this issue... which means that unless the pedal you are using has a built in polarity switch...(In which case power down your keyboard, unplug the pedal and select the opposite setting to what is set now and then plug it back in and power up your keyboard) your sustain pedal is the wrong type and is not compatible with the Launchkey....
    Failing that, here is an example of a sustain pedal that has a polarity switch so you can use it with any keyboard....

  • Assign MIDI Keyboard Pedal to control Record?

    I can't seem to get it to work, I used MIDI learn but it didn't assign the Pedal, a simple 0-127 cc64 VFP 1/25, to control the transport record button. Could the problem be that the box the pedal came in mentions most makes of keyboards but not my M-Audio 49e?

    I see. the pedal must send CC64 to Logic to be able to control the software instruments sustain ect.
    One of the reasons that the CC64 can be "blocked" is if there are any previous Controller Assignments or Keycommand assignments of that message i.e CC64. In this scenario the Logic Physical Input blocks the original message. There is a little trick to split that message using IAC but for now you must be sure where is the problem. Try to trash (and make a backup) the Logic Preferences file which will reset/delete all previous assignments. Open Logic and operate the pedal just to see if there is any CC64 shown in the Transport midi monitor or in the Input View monitor in Click & Ports environment layer. If that works then you can try to learn a keycommand again.
    Those asignment numbers mean little to me, they are"F0 7E 7F 06 02 00 20 08 4D 14 10 01 20 31 32 32 F7:learned

    Yes. you have to set up the Midi, pslit it up between the applications. e.g. channels 1-8 to app 1, and channels 9-16 to app 2.
    Then select the channels according to what application you want to play.

  • Can I get Garageband to recognize the drum kit channel on my midi keyboard?

    I can pull up a large selection of drums on one of the channels which are located on the first 16 white keys of my midi keyboard, unfortunately they aren't accessible like the other midi instruments but are on a channel all on their own. I am using a Keystation 49e from M-Audio. The problem is GB only interfaces with the advanced functions on the keyboard if it's set to channel 2 and the drums are on a separate channel. Also can anyone tell me why Boldt pack volume 3 only produces a sine wave sound? Thanks.

  • How can I build a drum pattern in Ultrabeat with my midi keyboard?

    So I was just wondering if I was able to build a drum beat in Ultrabeat with my midi keyboard, kinda "on the fly" as it's replaying..... For example, if I want to add some percussion in the pattern but while it's playing. Is there any way that Ultrabeat can just record in items I want via the midi board instead of clicking on the part with my mouse? It would just be much easier this way.... Thanks!

    It's a shame you can't record into Ultrabeat's sequencer in realtime using a MIDI controller.
    But, as CCTM says you can record into Logic's Arrange and other Editors. One to use may be the Hyper Editor. Not as pretty to look at but very similar in functionality to UB's seq.
    If you need to manage your recorded sequences you can always add the recorded region to your Apple Loops Library.

  • Can't hear midi keyboard

    i plugged my midi keyboard into logic express just like i did in garageband. i can see the notes but i cant hear them! how do i fix this? i've tried everything i can think of and i didnt find it in the manual. i wan't to lay down some drum beats and stuff but it wont let me do it manually w/ my keyboard. please help me!

    Mike,
    You may want to run the Setup Assistant. That helped me out when starting. Do this by:
    Logic Pro>Preferences>Start Logic Setup Assistant
    If you have done this already, be sure you have selected the correct Audio Driver. To check this go to:
    Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio
    Then click the "Drivers" tab. Make sure "Built in" is selected in the Driver drop down menu, if you want playback to go to the laptop speakers.
    If all of this is correct, be sure that you have an "Audio Instrument" selected in the track you see the MIDI notes. To do this:
    1) Locate an "Audio Instrument" track. Usually called something like "Inst 1".
    2) Click on the Audio Instrument track in the Arrange. A fadder should appear on the left hand side of the Arrange. If it does not try typing "P" or going to the local menu and click View>Parameters
    3) in the Input slot of the Audio Instument track's fader, click and hold the top slot (just below I/O) follow the menus to:
    Stereo>Logic>EFM1
    4) Now play your MIDI keyboard and see if it plays back.
    Hope this is helpful,

  • Looking for a way to get my Product ID and Vendor ID so I can enable my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7

    Looking for the Product ID and Vendor ID for my Radium 49 USB MIDI keyboard to work with Labview 7
    Is there a tool to find out the Vendor ID and Product ID for a USB device?
    Example: of what I'm looking for
    The Product ID for National Instruments DAQPad-6020E is 0x12C0. The
    USB vendor ID is 0x3923. This is a 16-bit hexadecimal number(1093)
    (that is decimal 4243).
    Thanks for all the fast responses this newsgroup RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!

    How To Find The Vendor and Product ID for USB Devices?
    Primary Software: Driver Software>>NI-VISA
    Primary Software Version: 3.3.1
    Primary Software Fixed Version: N/A
    Secondary Software: N/A
    Problem:
    I want to make an NI-VISA driver that requires the vendor and product ID?
    Solution:
    There is a utility called USBView,
    free from Windows, attached below, which you can use to view what is
    connected to your computer's USB ports. It is necessary to load this
    program and connect the USB device in development. Upon selecting the
    device in USBView, one can then look on the right side of the
    application window to obtain the Product ID and Vendor ID. This will
    allow you to enter in the correct IDs when creating a driver .inf file
    when using the VISA Driver Development Wizard. For more information
    about how to use the VISA Driver Development Wizard see the related
    links below.
    Note: It is necessary to keep the hexadecimal
    (0x####) format. Do not remove the "0x" hexadecimal format preceding
    the ID number. 

  • I do not see the user interface for the Logic software instruments. I can hear them play through my midi keyboard but I cannot see them to adjust parameters. Please advise.

    I do not see the user interface for the Logic Pro software instruments. I can hear them play through my midi keyboard but cannot see them to adjust the parameters. Please advise.

    Couple of things - you can open the interface for any instrument or plug-in by double-clicking its insert slot on the channel strip. You can configure Logic to automatically open the interface for a plug-in when you first instantiate it in the preferences. Go to Logic Pro > Preferences > Display > Mixer, and check the box for "Open plug-in window on insertion".

  • Which midi keyboards can I use with my iPad?

    Which midi keyboards work with the iPad when used with camera adapter? Which keyboards do you recommend? Thanks.

    Jude.Tristessa-
    As a starting point, try doing a web search for iPad midi.  You will get a better idea what is available, and can then ask more specific questions here.
    I do not know if any can use the Camera Connection Kit, but there may be some that connect via Bluetooth.
