Using expression pedal as modulation wheel

Post by Middle Milk Asking Questions » Sun Mar 07, 2021 4:45 pm

Hello there!

I've been trying to make this work and now I've thrown in the towel. I am hoping that some MIDI genius over there can help me. I'm trying to use an expression pedal to work as a modulation wheel. Tried the Manual CC Mapper without any luck. Anyone got any tips?

Cheers!

First you need to make sure that your expression pedal is sending CC01.
Then, depending on where you're sending this CC01 yo might just need nothing else (e.g if it's for a 3rd party synth).
If you want to control a Live device then it depends which one; some have internal midi routing options, some don't.
