Re: softstep and mobius users



I'm using MidiMonitor right now to see what the SoftStep is sending.  
Its very helpful.

I'm also seeing a slew of Control messages ....looks sometime like this:

00:21:34.659    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        26
00:21:34.667    From Bus 1      Program 1       15
00:21:34.669    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        107
00:21:34.679    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        113
00:21:34.690    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        115
00:21:34.700    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        116
00:21:34.751    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        114
00:21:34.761    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        105
00:21:34.771    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        60
00:21:34.781    From Port 1     Control 1       Sound Control 10        0
00:21:44.987    From Port 1     Control 1       General Purpose 5       0

Note though that the extra messages are from Port1 instead of Bus1  
(i.e. IAC driver), so I've got both "SoftStep (Port1)" and "from  
SoftStep 1" turned off in Ableton midi prefs and am only using my  
crowded IAC driver (I also use the IAC to make Ableton trigger itself  
and SooperLooper)

They insist on using only the IAC driver in the SoftStep manual. I  
don't understand why when it seems to show up as its own input in  
Ableton but I don't really know the details of how these things work.  
As long as it works!
