hi folks,
i´ve tried to use the MP201 to trigger my Roland System 700 via GATE and it didn´t work
the LFO Square Wave could, but when i choose the gate mode nothing happens, even no lights are blinking in this mode.
is this a bug or a feature?

any ideas?

It sends the gate signal when you press a button (I think it is button 4 in Single Channel Mode). Is yours not doing that?

yes, i know. after a os update the trigger button works!
btw. is it possible to trigger the gate via MIDI?
for a steady beat it would be nice to use a midi sequence.
the midi triggered LFO did not work correct. sometimes the timing is a bit off :-/

Hi Dirk,
To trigger a gate via MIDI, you simply need to send the correct MIDI Continuous Controller value to the Multi-Pedal:
0 - 63 = Gate OFF
64 - 127 = Gate ON
Hope this helps!
