  1. Hey, sounds like you are sending the bank msb, are you also sending the bank lsb? I posted a screenshot of my modx7 midi setting in that other thread which might be useful as a reference.
  2. So I figured I would show how I created my midi presets for the MODX all in one go. (You can do the same for songs and documents) Here is the link to the bandhelper website page that deals with it and also one for Midi: https://www.bandhelper.com/tutorials/importing_data.html https://www.bandhelper.com/tutorials/sending_MIDI.html
  3. Yeah, your setup sounds similar to mine, although I only use a MODX7 and I am running Band Helper which is the more recent version of Set List Maker I believe. I think if you email Arlo he can prob help you out and maybe see if upgrading to Band Helper is worth it. Its not super expensive and I like supporting guys like him. For what its worth, I use my setups for wedding/corporate stuff and it makes selecting songs on the fly a breeze.
  4. I think the reply you're quoting was to HammondDave. Viv mentioned trying sending program changes to the MODX7 first and trying the alternative as a workaround which is why I related my set-up/experience.
  5. So when I went down the rabbit hole with this a few years ago post Covid with my MOXF6/Nord Stage combo and then my MODX7, I tried a lot of different apps including forscore and unrealbook and chose Band Helper for these reasons: Good support from Arlo, great website, and forum website where you can ask for help Browser based login and shortcuts for importing batches of PDFs, song titles, and midi presets, If you are reasonably computer savvy you can import and setup a hundred songs with program changes in like 2-3 hours. Its crazy when you compare it to the alternative. The ability to customize the app layout and additional features like adding tracks, set timers, band calendar, linking iPads or iPhones, controlling lights and so on Very reasonable monthly/annual price (last year it was 12 bucks for my single membership) Forscore does offer the ability to create your own score(s), which band helper doesn't. Obviously everyone's needs will be a little different, just relating my experience.
  6. I set up Band Helper to control my Nord Stage 3, Prophet Rev 2, and a whole bunch of pedals on my pedalboard. One of my presets looked like this:
  7. I was able to use Band Helper to select Live Sets on my MODX7. My midi presets looked like below:
  8. I did this with my MOXF which is pretty much the same. I used Band Helper to select a Master Mode patch which would have either a Voice, Performance, or Song saved to it .You have to use hex code which looks like below:
  9. Dude, he’s not asking how to set the feature, he’s asking about the button popping out which is not in the manual. Calm down…
  10. For the Crumar you can use a 5 pin 1/8 inch adapter for the 5 pin and then a USB power adapter for power. I did this with my MODX7 and B-3X and it worked great. Only issue is that the micro USB port isn’t very sturdy.
  11. Hi all, Since the new Montage M8X is still pretty heavy, I am going to be getting an M7 and find myself needing an 88 key digital piano. I really like the form factor, weight and features of the Legend 70s Artist-W and the sound seems pretty good based on the online videos. I'd be using it for practicing piano at home sometimes and jazz/blues/rock gigs. A big plus are the two sets of outputs and the easy to use iPad editor. Other boards I like and am considering are the Yamaha CP88/YC88 (no assignable outputs) or Nord Stage 4 88 (expensive). The Numa Piano X GT, the Korg Grandstage, and Kawaii MP7SE are all possibilities as well, but I am looking to stay at around 40 to 43 pounds in weight. Curious to know if anyone has any new feedback to add for this board as of 2023?
  12. Just off the top of my head from having played this tune before, I think the last chord of the four bar phrase alternates between an F major 7 and the D7sus, depending on where you are in the form.
  13. I found this thread on TGP last week and it is pretty interesting/eye opening to hear the other side of this argument: https://www.thegearpage.net/board/index.php?threads/big-rig-live-frustration-rant.2455747/
  14. Thanks, it was fun to work on! To be clear though, the play-along track is still your playing, just looped in Logic. It also sounds cool played on piano/EP too with octaves in the left hand. Did you use any post processing on that recording to get it pop like it does?
  15. In the spirit of inspiring less in the way of negative posts on this forum, here is a lick of Jim's that I transcribed and worked on last year. I like the voicings, the organ tone and the rhythm.The original link is below and I have attached some play-along tracks I made (slow, fast, and in all keys). The lick starts around the two minute mark. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3t4xyhdGRA Jim A - 2 Handed organ slow.mp3 Jim A - 2 Handed organ fast.mp3 Jim A - 2 Handed Organ - All Keys Copy.mp3
