CQ20B MIDI for [Listen] and Hph Output Level

[Clint]

Is is not possible to control the [Listen] button on channels and the Headphone Output levels via MIDI? Don’t see anything in the manual regarding MIDI for these functions …

I am trying to control these remotely from a BomeBox in certain situations …

You can assign the listen function to a soft key and then trigger the soft key via midi.
No midi for the headphone volume.

Right! Didn’t think of soft keys …

However, I’ve only got three of those … and I’ve got like 6-7 tracks I want to do this with. Sigh.

What is your set up exactly ?
If you add mixing station on it, it can midi control everything.

Thanks for the Feedback, @Frenchie !

I have a detailed diagram of my setup, but I don’t think I can post it here …

Basically my MIDI control uses a Novation LaunchPad Mini Mk3 (“LMM3”) and (optionally) a FaderFox EC4. I have the CQ mixer app running on an iPad, but for live work, I try to everything with taps on the LMM3. A BomeBox translates LMM3 taps into whatever MIDI is needed by the target systems (Synths, mixers, etc).

I was hoping to be able to control the [Listen] functions and output Hph level by “direct MIDI” to the CQ20B, but not dice. I’m guessing there’s a way with the gnarly Mackie Control protocol, but that’s wayy more complex …
