MIDI Message Types
Morningstar controllers can send virtually any type of MIDI messages you need.
From standard PC (Program Change) and CC (Control Change) messages to Note, SySex, Realtime, Keystroke commands and many more –
your Morningstar controller has you covered.
For all the available MIDI message types and descriptions of what they do, please refer to our
. It gets continually
updated as we add more features.
Action Types
You have the ability to send different MIDI messages by performing different actions on a switch. Such as Press, Double Tap, Release or Long
Press (and more). This allows you to group MIDI messages by actions so a single switch can perform multiple functions.
For example, you can map a
message to a Press action, and a
message to a Release action. When the switch is pressed, a
CC#1
CC#2
CC#1
message will be sent, and when the switch is released, a
messages will be sent.
CC#2

Programming Switches
All switches on your Morningstar controller come empty by default. It’s up to you to decide what you want each switch to do. Each switch can
send up to 16 different MIDI messages simultaneously. The combination of MIDI messages a switch sends, makes up a preset.
There are 2 ways you can program your switches. By using the Morningstar Device Editor or programming on the controller itself.
