Unfortunately this is the case :-(
I had different ART units over the years and you could assign at
least 9 different MIDI CC#s.
I had 5 CC#s for ON/OFF stuff, and a pedal because that was all my
Rocktron MidiMate would let me.

For me the four CC#s are enough as I play bass and usually don't have
loads of FX :-)
At least you can assign the CC#s your MIDI board sends to different
things in each patch...

Maybe firmware version 1.12 fixes this? I installed it yesterday but
didn't have time to play around with it.

Does anyone have a list of changes for 1.12?
