Hey, I'm thinking of using my HX Effects along with a midi controller to get even more flexibility out of it, and I'm looking for some recommendations and to make sure what I have in mind is possible.
The main use case I'm thinking of would be to have dedicated switches on the midi controller to change snapshots. This would free up some of the unit's onboard switches. I'm new to midi but from what I understand, I could send values on MIDI CC 69 from the controller to the HXFX to change snapshots, right?
I also noticed this option in the manual:
This means I could send midi messages from the HXFX to the midi controller so that the snapshot selected on the controller matches the one on the HXFX, correct?
As for the controller itself, I'm looking for a compact one with 4 switches (one for each snapshot) and the only one I've found so far is Matthews Effects' The Futurist. It's really hard to find where I am in Europe though, so I'm open to other suggestions.
Thanks
