How to use program change with banks? #339

Closed kentforth closed 3 years ago

kentforth commented 3 years ago

Let's say I have 2 buttons for sending program change and 2 buttons for changing banks("btnUp", "btnDown") Initially program change buttons send MIDI_PC::Acoustic_Grand_Piano and MIDI_PC::Bright_Acoustic_Piano I I press btnUp button the first PC button chanegs to MIDI_PC::Electric_Grand_Piano and second PC button changes to MIDI_PC::Gunshot

If I press btnDown button these buttons go to it's inital PC value

How can I do it? Can you gvie me a sample sketch?

There is program change example in your library, but I don't know how to use it with banks:

ProgramChanger<4> programChanger = {
  {
    MIDI_PC::Acoustic_Grand_Piano, // list of programs
    MIDI_PC::Bright_Acoustic_Piano,  
  },
  CHANNEL_1, // MIDI channel to use
};

It's not clear to me what you mean, ProgramChanger doesn't use banks.

If you want to control it using two buttons, see https://tttapa.github.io/Control-Surface-doc/Doxygen/d9/d7f/Program-Changer_8ino-example.html and use the IncrementDecrementSelector instead of the ManyButtonsSelector.

it is not necessary for me to use only programChanger. I just need to change program change number of buttons with banks

Thank you for answer!

In that case, you might want to use the Bankable::PCButton class instead of ProgramChanger.
