Re: Button increment skip values? re:VFX and sysex control

2008-05-27 by k5kip_1999

Alright,
Anyway to work in some logic here?
Based on what you said below,
bank and patch select, is there a way to have different commands come
out with different speed turning? I guess that would have to use some
sort of detector to figure out the speed. 
Will the BCR do and computation stuff?
OMG - I am in way over my head now!
