@cloph:
Yeah thats what I thought...
I also was thinking about reverse-engineering the protocol but a quick google search has shown that this has already been done.
Either way, I was really hoping that I just overlooked something in the documentation since it also clearly states that this is not the intended behavior. It's a pitty that it is exactly inverted when compared to conventional stompboxes and there have not been any patches addressing this issue, especially given that this is probably a trivial feature to implement (I dont know the codebase and am sick of people thinking that they know how to fix bugs in my codebases when they really dont so I tend to be careful with those assumptions. However, in this case I dont see how it could be more complicated than implementing a mode in which the first MIDI-sequence triggers the switch).
Nevertheless, if you make any advances in this regard I would be grateful if you could keep me up to date :)
Thanx for your responses, cya around.
PS @cloph: BTW, I PM'd you.
