That's wonderful. Together with the mappings I did this can open up a lot of great possibilities:

These look great! I have a supernova I might eventually do this for. I haven't looked at any of the combi 2 stuff yet. Was there a technical limitation that forced you to split it into 3? How do you set the midi device output its on?

In fact, it's 32 rotary + 32 buttons, so I think this explains that. If I understood, there is 3x panels (combi). Is it? In this case, I counted controls are in this 32+32 limit for each.

Ok...So at least we need a limit of 96+96 :-)

Yes, there was been created 3 Combi 2.0 patches.
Because not enough UI elements. (32 knobs + 3 buttons + 2 MW + FX bypass button).
This is not a problem to use few C2 patches for 1 device. You just set them to the same midi/USB port in MIDI OUT DEVICE.
3 panels - working solution for big synths,

@rcbuse, I also have SNII Pro-X rack, and love it. And day ago trying start to create patch for it, today SN2 going to the service for few days.
Midi CC, NRPN is ok. But can't use Sysyex data.

128 would be compatible with the Midi specification.
Hold on, what about NRPN?

That's really impressive. It looks as if Combi 2 is about to inspire a whole host of interesting new devices and interfaces. It should be an exciting few months.

How?
I have not encountered NRPN msb/lsb in the midi out device.

Just read on the web about CC/NRPN converting
Usually NRPN have settings A:B
NRPN can be used as 3 CC commands.

Finally, all you need just to use 3 Matrix lines:

knob1 - CC99 - min = A, max = A
knob1 - CC98 - min = B, max = B
knob1 - CC6 - 0-127 (full range), or if property stepped 0-4 (5 steps)

So if NRPN 0:67 and have 5 steps
CC99 - 0, 0
CC98 - 67, 67
CC6 - 0-4

It’s all

What I can’t realise now, is a Program Change.
Can’t find how to use CC to Program Change
If I use Knob -> Program Change, nothing changed

NRPN works, thanks. There does seem to be some limitations in resolution but works.

Program Change works for me. Have you activated the On button for PC and the correct midi channel? I have tested with the Digitone.
