Subject:Re: Control speed of Leslie 2101 using MIDI, but not from a Hammond

Hi Russ,

Hammond-Suzuki doesn't use MIDI controllers (CC's) for much of anything except drawbars at this point. Some of their keyboards send CC92, but I think that the XK-3 sends NRPN commands, so that's probably what the 2101 is looking for. Unfortunately, most MIDI keyboards -- including the QS7 -- don't send NRPN. :-(

There are ways around this snag. If you're using a PC on the gig, I'll bet that MidiOx can fix you up. Otherwise, a MIDI Solutions Event Processor can make things work.

Please contact me offline for more details.

Regards,

-BW
