How do I program the buttons to send midi messages?

bootlegtrader

I am making a patch for my G2 to be used as a controller for another synth. I am using "MIDI Control Send" modules and they are working great...

However, I would like to program the buttons below the knobs, on the G2, to do things like on/off functions. For example, to turn an effect on or off on my other synth. I do not like using a knob as an on/off button. Is this possible? How is it done?

Thanks a lot in advance!

no problem. hey, what kinds of interfaces are you assigning this way (how big are those UI's)? just curious ...

i'm currently using a G2 knob to select the next phrase/variation, and the button engages that new selection on the next downbeat ... times x 8

i am just making a controller patch on the g2 for my nord wave Smile

i wanted to use the buttons to turn the effects on and off, like reverb, delay, "tube amp."

UI's? whats that?

UI = user interface, how big = how many knobs/buttons etc. .. or parameters.

so far 8.5 cycles, 15.6% memory and 69 modules. i guess i could post my patch when it is complete. it could be considered kind of useless since the wave has all of its knobs and buttons right on the front. this was just for fun, to get to know my gear better Smile

thanks again, you guys are always real helpful.

Doing controller patch is a hot for me too
Just trying to patch controller with some modifiers for some of then to control my RS7000 ('ll share it complited)
It recieves 23-or-so controllers/per midichannel X 16. I've out of CC-send modules quickly. I'm minding now what combine with what in one path & what - in another. It looks like have to have (vol/pan/fx sends x3/expression)x16 in one patch, while cutoffs/res/dist/portamento -in another. Not good, that then I have to make new controller patch for evry song or part of song depend on what I need to control in what situatio at once. Have anybody here G2 MIDI/XG controller patch experience already? Some tips on subject are welcome!
