I am super excited about having built a samplerbox with the audio pirate DAC. I'm using it with an Arturia KeyStep 37 midi controller. I was hoping to be able to change the presets from my controller but have not had luck. I configured one of the CC * * * on the KeyStep 37 for CC 12 but the Samplerbox doesn't seem to respond. Anyone out there have any clues/advice?

Admin reply: Samplerbox responds to the Program Change MIDI message to change the preset instrument.
That's a different message than a CC (Control Change) message. You are sending a CC12 message which controls effects - not what you want.

There is a way to assign two CC messages to tell samplerbox to go to the next or previous preset when the assigned CC message is received.

You have to create a name for the two controllers in the file controllerCCs.csv, something like ButtonUp and ButtonDown and what CC number they send.

Then in the file CCmap.csv you tell it what to do when those CC messages from the controllers you named are received.

Put the controller name in the Controller column (column B)
Put the ProgramUp and ProgramDown terms in the Sets column (column D).

Hello Glenn,
Thank you for your guide here... I followed everything to the letter (AFAIK)...
and it worked! Have SamplerBox running on RPi4B/8GB with Blokas Pisound card. Have already used the WebGUI to practice changing presets. Will explore more soon.

One question... is there a safe way to power down/ off the Raspberry Pi... if running "headless" w/o a monitor? Have always heard that just unplugging the USB-C power cable wasn't good for file system integrity.

I know how to shutdown (shutdown -P now) when I have a keyboard and monitor connected.

Admin reply: It is safe to just power down the Pi, as all the filesystems are set to read-only by samplerbox.
