Guitar Wing MIDI Mapping - Can't get buttons to work

tracyevans

I must be missing something. I can not get any buttons other than that four round pads to control anything in my apps.

I am using Yonic ToneStack on an iPad. While I can map the round pads and sliders to just about anything, I can not get the rectangular light-up buttons or the black plastic buttons to control anything.

I have used the editor to change them to notes, to CC and everything else I can think of. I even set them to the same settings as teh round pads but they still have no effect in my app.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Tracy,

It appears that the app only accepts CC Messages. You likely want some advanced features, so in Guitar Wing Editor open the 'Advanced' section.

If you want a button to act like a button/ key (just an on-off message), then set the 'Key' mapping to 'cc'.

- and set the 'Control' mapping to 'none'

If you want a button to act like a continuous controller (and send velocity updates continuously while the button is held), then set the 'Control' mapping to 'cc'

- and set the 'Key' mapping to 'none'

If you'd like more help, just let us know!
