Keyboardists: One Board, 50 Sounds, No Menu Diving
· One min read
You have a Nord Stage or a Korg Kronos. It has 5,000 sounds. You need "Warm Pad 4" for the intro and "B3 Organ" for the verse. You spend the entire break between songs scrolling through a tiny LCD screen trying to find patch #342. The drummer counts off while you're still searching.
The Old Way: Sticking masking tape on your keyboard with patch numbers written on it. "Song 1 = 042".
The Bandfix Way: Song MIDI Settings.
- Connect your iPad to your keyboard via USB.
- In Bandfix, assign the MSB/LSB and Program Change numbers for each song.
- When you open the song on your iPad, your keyboard instantly jumps to the right sound.
Pro Tip: You can even stack sounds. Have Bandfix send a command to your main board and a command to a secondary synth module at the same time.
