iBassist LivePads - trigger by PC message doesn't work

edited November 2025 in General App Discussion

I'm trying to control LivePads by sending PC message into iBassist but without success. I have set MIDI channel 1 in "Live Pads MIDI Mode" and "Starting at 1". I'm sending message from Loopy Pro button as action "Press" with target "iBassist" channel 1 and value 1. Any clue what could be wrong?
If I switch "Live Pads MIDI Mode" to "Note" instead of "Program Change" then everything works OK.

Is there anyone here who could try this out, please?

    I can't make it work with program change either. I also tried sending program change from another app and it didn't work, so it's not specific to Loopy Pro.

    Hello,

    Same thing for me here... only Notes can control the Live Pads, they doesn't respond to PC.

    Regarding to MIDI control, do you know if the "END" or the "FILL>" buttons can be triggered by any midi message please ?
    It would be so useful...

    Thanks

    @Steve77 I checked MIDI settings and didn't find any option for "END" nor "Fill>". So I guess it is not supported now.

    Thanks for creating a suggestion on Discord, I was just about to do that.
