Delay between MIDI commmands?

Question

Summary: EHX 8-step needs delay between commands

---

I'm trying to make a reset command for an Electro-Harmonix 8-step that involves 4 steps: Stop CC, Reset CC, Unload preset CC and finally PC0 to go to a default preset. A supercontrol sends these momentary buttons but the result is very random and glitchy - sometimes not much happens, sometimes some of the commands get executed, sometimes unexpected changes occur. If I push the buttons manually they work as intended so I assume the 8-step needs some time to process the commands. Is there any way of creating a delay between the commands?

Please see http://tiny.mididesigner.com/vintage-throttle for the new feature coming in 2.4.5. More beta testers needed (2016-10-18)!

Answer 1

No Proper Vintage Throttle Yet

Thanks so much for your question. Currently there is no proper vintage throttle for MIDI Designer. We've been realizing recently how critical this is to work with older MIDI targets, and will implement something soon. Please hang tight!

@fretnomore in the worst case scenario, I can release a NEXT version to beta that has all IAPs unlocked, but I'd love to figure out what's happening instead. BTW, if you want, please hit ma up via email at support [at] mididesigner.com.

Great to hear! Curious about how this latest throttle works out for you, thanks! Also take note of this newsletter and MD Designer Con One: http://tiny.mididesigner.com/2016-october-news2

Looks good so far! Real life and the day job is intruding though, I'll try to do some more organized testing this coming weekend.
