Glad to see that the SQs finally has MIDI! I’ve been planning for two years to upgrade my current mixer, but I have problem finding a new one with decent MIDI implementation.
However, I was not happy to see that the SQs only support NRPN data. Please do me a favor and try recording the MIDI data from adjusting two faders simultaneously on the SQ5 and play it back. As far as I understand it, NRPN makes it impossible to adjust two values simultaneously. Since NRPN data use four MIDI CC values to represent one value on the SQ5 (e.g. fader level on channel X), the MIDI CC data from the movement of two faders would get intertwined and the result unpredictable. Or is the choice of NRPN parameters so clever that the values won’t get misinterprated?
For the next update I would suggest that you add the option of using a MIDI table instead of NRPN, as Yamaha has for their mixers. In Yamaha mixers you can select to either use NRPN or a “MIDI table”, where the user can assign over 100 available MIDI CCs (128 minus reserved CCs) to any control he likes.
