Hello, I tried to figure out the Stream Byter commands, and I really had some success - but unfortunately now I'm stucked.
What I want to do is, using the Irig Blueboard like a Piano. (Yes... like a Piano with only four keys.)
That means, I would like to assign one note to every single button via Midibridge. My problem is: How can I make a note stop playing, if I press another button? I tried this:
BX 00 = 9X 31 60 +C BX 00 = 8X 31 00 BX 01 = 9X 32 60 +C BX 01 = 8X 32 00 BX 02 = 9X 33 60 +C BX 02 = 8X 33 00 BX 03 = 9X 34 60 +C BX 03 = 8X 34 00
But it's not working, because the note is not stopping... Hm. Can anyone please help me?

Hi seif, The 'note off' will issue before the 'note on'. Maybe try something like: BX 00 7F = 9X 31 60 BX 00 00 = 8X 31 00 BX 01 7F = 9X 32 60 BX 01 00 = 8X 32 00 BX 02 7F = 9X 33 60 BX 02 00 = 8X 33 00 BX 03 7F = 9X 34 60 BX 03 00 = 8X 34 00 That should sound/stop a note as you toggle each button. Regards, Nic.

Thank you very much for your answer!
Now I can switch a note on and off with one and the same button. (For example: Pressing A = Note C On, Pressing A again = Note C Off.) Thats fine and I would like to keep that function.
What I need additionally is a note-off-function, if I press another button. (Pressing A = Note C on, Pressing B = Note D on AND Note C off.)
(Btw. Should I mention, that I run the Blueboard-Software in "Control Change" Modus? Should I switch into Programm Change?)
Thanks a lot!

Sorry, I was trying around and figured out (well at least I hope I did...) that its better to work with the Programm Change Modus. Concerning your example I tried this:
CX 00 7F = 9X 31 60 CX 00 00 = 8X 31 00 CX 00 7F = 8X XX 00
CX 01 7F = 9X 32 60 CX 01 00 = 8X 32 00 CX 01 7F = 8X XX 00
CX 02 7F = 9X 33 60 CX 02 00 = 8X 33 00 CX 02 7F = 8X XX 00
CX 03 7F = 9X 34 60 CX 03 00 = 8X 34 00 CX 03 7F = 8X XX 00
Well, but as you probably guess, it was not working. Maybe you can tell me, what I am doing wrong?
Thank you!

Hi seif I figured you would be asking for this next! We need to make some more adjustments: BX 00 7F = 9X 31 60 +C BX 00 00 = 8X 31 00 BX 01 7F = 9X 32 60 +C BX 01 00 = 8X 32 00 BX 02 7F = 9X 33 60 +C BX 02 00 = 8X 33 00 BX 03 7F = 9X 34 60 +C BX 03 00 = 8X 34 00 BX 00-03 7F = BX 7B 00What this does is pre- send an 'all notes off' message whenever you turn on any note (NB program changes do not have a value byte so they are probably less useful in this case where we want to distinguish between on and off) Regards, Nic.

Very close!
Still a little Problem. In CC-Mode which we use right now I have to press twice. A second time to switch "the light of the button off again ".
Thats why I thouhgt the PC mode would be better.
