However, I want to assign a Footswitch to specific parts (such as sustaining only R1, or having DSP Variation, on a different pedal turn "on" only for Part R3). (I do this so Sustain only affects voices that should sustain such as guitars, tuned percussion, guitars) and so that DSP Variation only affects a voice in which I have an Organ Flute (to turn the "Leslie" fast to slow etc.) Still looks like the settings page for the MIDI foot controller such as MFC10, does not have a place to program "which Parts is affected" for footswitches; only for continuous controller pedals. . . ???

Jim Oh, didnt notice it was German... i speak way to many languages to notice they are different. Actually it works quite simple, you assign the pedal to a midi note... the pedal sends midi on and off messages for that note on the assigned cahnnel. Then in the Tyros midi interface you can assign all special functions you just mentioned and a lot more to the specific notes.. There is a listing of assignable commands in your Tyros manual.. _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Elton John Nat King Cole Dianna Krall Harry Connick Junior Just off the top of my head (three pedals under a piano!) I have never read such BS in all my life. _________________________ An arranger is just a tool. What matters is what you build with it..!

There is a reason pianos have 3 pedals There is a reaason organs have a pedal board and an expression pedal There is a reason people playing keyboards want more pedals as they play piano, organ all kinds of instruments, sing, controll their arranger, controll their vocal harmony and all at the same time, while their hands are bound to the keys.... Elton John only played piano and sung.... And he was great at that.... He also had a whole orchestra and some sound engineers to help him out with that, an OMB is just alone, not even a roady to accompany him... _________________________ Yamaha Genos, Roland Jupiter 80, Ipad pro. http://keyszone.boards.net

Diki Registered: 04/25/05 Posts: 14300 Loc: NW Florida	Looks pretty good to me, Don. Wouldn't mind being on that billboard myself! A singing organist runs up to 24 'switches' at his feet while he plays the two manuals, runs a swell pedal, then changes registrations, switches Leslie and Cho/Vib effects in and out, fast and slow with his hands. Don't make me look them up for you, I'm done pandering to your laziness..! All you are saying is YOU can't do it, not that it can't be done. _________________________ An arranger is just a tool.
