PODxt: manual mode selection #16

Closed arteme closed 1 year ago

arteme commented 1 year ago

The PODxt manual reads:

The most basic thing to do with PODxt via MIDI is change channels. You may have a foot controller or other device that sends MIDI program change messages. Hook its MIDI Out to PODxt’s MIDI In, set the MIDI Channels of both devices to be the same, and refer to the chart in Appendix B to see what program number on the foot controller will select which PODxt Channel. Note that both Manual Mode and the tuner can be selected with MIDI Program Change messages. You can also send MIDI Program change messages to PODxt from a MIDI sequencer to allow you to change PODxt sounds automatically in sync with your sequences.

How should manual mode and tuner selection be done via PC messages if all PC range 0..127 is reserved for the actual programs?

Line6Edit sends some fancy sysex message to change to turn the tuner on/off, but what about the manual mode?

Tuner is actually CC 69, but manual mode?!

Tuner selection has been addressed in #15. Seems, however, that the manual mode is not reported by PODxt devices, nor can in be toggled programmatically.

Closing as "won't fix" because there's no way to implement this
