I know I'm getting ahead of myself, but I'm on a roll at the moment, heheh. I've just been going over your BC Secrets again. I can see once we figure out the numbers needed for the so-called 'negative NPRN' values, likely via .tx commands to send 14bit values via MIDI CC 6 MSB and LSB, then the major hurdle will be crossed. After that, using the .tx commands 'ifp' and 'ifn', it should be possible then to assign a single Encoder to respond with the 'positive' NRPN values for a parameter when turning clockwise, and to respond with the 'negative' NRPN values when turning counterclockwise. Likewise, it should also be possible to assign a Button a .tx command which sends out the necessary 14bit NRPN command, and using 'incval' to increment, so that for the Micron parameters which have only a few values (so-called 'switches'), you can have a Button dedicated to the parameter instead of an Encoder. Question is, could you also use the 'push' function of the top row Encoders as assignable Buttons in the same fashion, thereby giving you 32 more Buttons with 14bit, incrementable switches? Hopefully so =) I had forgotten all about the 'push' functionality of the top Encoders when designing and trying to squeeze in as many Micron parameters onto one BCF preset as possible. If I'm understanding the principles so far, I'll likely be able to squeeze everything onto a single BC preset, correct?
