In all versions of the Freekie’s software prior to v.1.2, when the Freekie is
connected to a MIDI device, and is in SHOW mode (the SHOW indicator is lit), the
first 24 keys on the MIDI device can be used to trigger show execution.
• Keys 1-12 are used to activate corresponding shows in the first bank
• Keys 13-24 are used to activate corresponding shows in the second bank
However, in these software versions, MIDI triggering works only in the active
bank. MIDI keys 1 - 12 work only when bank 1 is active, and MIDI keys 13-24
work only when bank 2 is active (to make a bank active, it must be selected – see
“Running a show” on page 18).

From software v.1.2, when the Freekie is connected to a MIDI device, and is in
SHOW mode (the SHOW indicator is lit), the first 36 keys on the MIDI device can
be used to trigger show execution.
• Keys 1-12 are used to activate corresponding shows in the first bank
• Keys 13-24 are used to activate corresponding shows in the second bank
• Keys 25-36 are used to activate corresponding shows in the third bank
From software v.1.2, the bank does not need to be selected manually to make it
active – the Freekie will play shows in any of the first three banks if triggered by a
key from 1-36 on the MIDI device.

If you have an earlier software version and wish to take advantage of the improved
MIDI triggering capability available from software v.1.2, contact your Martin
dealer, who will be able to upgrade your Freekie.

Because the Freekie runs selected shows in a continuous loop, it can be a good idea
when using MIDI triggering to record an inactive show in which all the fixtures are
dimmed, so that a show can be “stopped”.

Note:
When you take manual control of a fixture it stops performing
its pre-programmed show.
To take control of an individual fixture, or group of fixtures, during show playback:
