Hello all, very proud to be part of the Hapax community.
First dumb question (you should be prepared with me , despite the PC presets names present in the instruments definitions files, I can’t find any way to display them on the Hapax and ther’s nothing about it the manual. What are they use for?
ex: # PC # MSB/LSB must be between 0…127
[PC]
1:0:NULL User 1 # add user patches here…
1:1:NULL LONG PAD 1
2:1:NULL MOVING PAD
3:1:NULL SOFT PAD 1
[/PC]
Welcome @mikei As far as I know those names are for reference in the text document. I’ve noticed some definitions that I’ve downloaded have the names included and some don’t - regardless, I’ve played around with it and it did not have an effect on what the Hapax was displaying.
Hello Maarten, thanks for your response, sadly I can’t make it work, maybe it’s because of a bad instrument definition. When you say ‘from the definition’ you mean in the automation page? Maybe you can provide a screenshot , for me to be sure from where to start
# PC
# Syntax: NUMBER NAME
# number must be either:
# - A number (for simple PC)
# - Three numbers, delimited by ':', which represent PC:MSB:LSB. You can put 'NULL' to not set the MSB/LSB.
# PC must be between 1...128
# MSB/LSB must be between 0...127
[PC]
[/PC]
# CC
# Syntax: CC_NUMBER NAME or CC_NUMBER:DEFAULT=xx NAME
# DEFAULT_VALUE must be a valid number between 0 and 127
[CC]

So nothing about Program Change in the cc list. And If I read you well , writing down the PC Change Names in the (PC)(/PC) field is completly useless.
Very confusing , I will do without them.
Anyway, so see the PC names, hold the track number button, then don’t select PC but scroll down and go to INSTR DEF to select a program change by name.
