Change Song on NS3 from MIDI

Post by wsnyder »

Is it possible to call up and song setup on the NS3 from Midi?
I don't see anything in the docs.
I would like to use BandHelper to send a midi message to the nS3 which would call up the appropriate NS3 Song.

Thanks, will try that...Nordish, thanks.


Quai34. We switched from Setlistmaker to Bandhelper also, and really like it... It takes some learning to figure out how to have multiple documents and still allow each band member to see their own ( its done with the user list for the document). But we really like it.. Arlo has done a really good job.

I know, I tried it for one year two years ago but as my other bandmates had trouble even figuring out Setlist maker, I gave it up....I know that I will have to do it because I read somewhere that Arlo will not support the Database linking in 2018. Last time I tried, I had the same issue, it was a bit tough to transfer all my documents and songs and midi files attached to my songs in Setlist maker. I remember I needed to do a sort of batch transfer and it was a bit tricky....
Thanks anyway for the recommendation, I'm just starting a new band where people seems to be more open to "technology", so, I think I just need to take the time to do it...Well, with my current band, pure classic rock, don't talk to them about technology, my guitarist bought an A&H QU16 and I'm the only one who knows how to use it....My drummer just discovered how good an electronic dum could be (Roland....) and my bassist think that bassist who are using pedals are morons....I offered him to try mine (Radial bass DI plus a bunch of very good pedals specifically designed for bass etc) but he didn't want...
Thanks again
Bye
