Hello, you can send Midi Notes and commands through blueboard pedal and MidiBridge?
Example. 4 of pedals and 2 more in length, I use 4 in Loopy HD (next, prev, rec, play) and two pedals at some app Drum (kick and snare)
Thanks

Hi ronaldobc,
You can indeed pass the BlueBoard's events through MidiBridge to route and remap.
The BlueBoard app can be configured to send either program change messages or controller messages so you need to choose which ones you use first. I don't know about the controller messages, but I believe the program messages correspond to programs 1-4 (MIDI events program change 0 to 3).
However, I don't really understand your example, I'm afraid. Could you provide a bit more detail about your setup and what you are trying to achieve and then hopefully I can provide you with advice.
Regards, Nic.

I'll try to illustrate better. I play guitar pedal with a Roland gr-55 (style one-man-band) and use an iphone 4s or ipad mini to record with Loopy HD and have a drum machine in the background.
IRIG Blueboard pedals and 4 has a length of two pedals. I'm thinking of buying it to use in live performances, where 2 pedals would Rhythm (kick and snare) and the other 4 pedals would be the commands in loopy. And believe MidiBridge can help me in this mission. What do you think?

BlueBoard has only 4 buttons. Or do you mean you want to use 2 BlueBoards together? I'm not sure this is possible with an iDevice, but maybe it is.
For Loopy, which has MIDI learn I don't think MidiBridge will add anything to your setup - it should recognise the BlueBoard app's MIDI output directly.
You want to send some of the events from the BlueBoard to your drum machine. How is the drum machine connected to the iPad or iPhone?
Regards, Nic.

I think I understand a little more. You want to convert the BlueBoard's MIDI commands to note events to play the kick and snare from the BlueBoard.
That can be done with the Stream Byter fairly easily. The rule would look something like this (assuming BlueBoard is in program change mode)
# map BlueBoard PG 0 to note
CX 00 = 90 48 60 +C
CX 00 = 80 48 +C +D500
That sends a note on (I just used C4 for this example, your snare/kick will be different notes) and 1/2 second later also sends a note off.
Regards, Nic.

Blueboard connects a volume pedal or foot switch with up to 2 commands. (see attached image)   ext1 and ext2 = external foot switch or level controller. So I guess it's possible. Better yet if you could just make a midi foot controller with bluetooth or more buttons and pads. (nanoPAD via bluetooth would be the maximum) lol |
