I’m wanting to get back to using MG2 with my band. I’m trying to get a M-VAVE Chocolate to connect with my laptop and control patches and expression(volume).
I have loaded a utility called MIDIberry that allows me to view my devices and the data incoming from the controller.
I’ve tried two different loop utilities, and I can see the incoming midi from the Chocolate displayed in the MIDIberry utility, and I can set MG2 to the same loop port but it does not react to patch changes.
In a previous setup, that became too cumbersome, I used a wired USB Midi interface and fed patch changes from the chocolate through the midi I/O of a Line6 HD500X that I’m no longer using. I’m not sure why MG2 would see the USB wired connection/driver, but seems to ignore the same data coming in via the Bluetooth connection.
If anyone has sorted this out, and could give me a suggestion, work around, or known functional utility for windows 11, please share what worked for you. Thanks!
To my knowledge you can’t change patches using MIDI commands in MG2. Below screenshot shows the assignable functions, patch changes are not included. In MG3 this works fine.
No, it works. I’ve done it with a wired USB midi interface. CC 0 is patch 1, CC 1 is patch 2, and so on. I can select the midi input from the Bluetooth controller, it takes it, but MG2 doesn’t respond to the wireless route but it does from the wired usb midi interface. In the MIDIberry app I can see the midi info sent from the Bluetooth connected Chocolate controller but MG2 ignores it. Thanks for reaching out and trying though.
