MIDI control of Organ Rotary Speaker

Post by DTownSMR »

I don't see any CC's listed so I'm guessing there's no MIDI support for controlling the organ engines rotary speaker controls but I'm hoping I'm just over looking something. Thanks in advance.

Did you have a look into the manual? There are the following MIDI CCs:
[table=][tr=][td=]Rotary Speed [/td][td] 108[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Rotary Source [/td][td] 109[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Rotary Drive [/td][td] 110[/td][/tr]
[tr][td]Rotary Enable [/td][td] 111[/td][/tr][/table]

I did just retry them all and found that Speed, Source & Enable have no effect the Drive does seem to function. Odd?!?

If you have a MIDI monitor app on your computer, you may check which CCs are sent when using the control panel. What is sent should also work if received. I don't have my hands on the Stage 3.

Looks like it's all off of CC:108 ?!?
values: 0 - stop
43 - on slow
85 - on fast
127 - fast

I was using dial switches which were readily available and I guess the flood of messages confused it. Need to play around some more. Thanks for the tips.

I can confirm CC:108 and states 43-slow, 127-fast.
These values I use in my DIY arduino MIDI-box with my NS3 - and they work! But intention there is only to toggle between slow and fast with a momentary switch / pedal switch. (same as if you plug the pedal in ROTOR PEDAL Jack)
