Hi,  
So - supposing I already have my Preset selected on my QC (like 2B or 4C)… and this preset is Scene mode.  
NOW… I want to change Scenes via MIDI. I took this list of MIDI messages from the manual to “recall” - which I take to mean select - a Scene. Is that what this means?

So again… IF I already have my preset selected, and I send a MIDI CC #43 on channel 1, with a value of say 3, then I ‘think’ I am selecting (or recalling) Scene D. Is that right??

Thanks  
Alex

Hi Alex,

That looks correct. If you’re getting into using midi with scenes and want to add extra stomps in without a tap dance, stacking midi messages can also be handy (e.g., Activate Stomp mode \> Specific Footswitch Control \> activate scene mode). I do this to add a boost or wah in for solos for instance to get more out of scene mode. Hope this is helpful!

Yes, you’re correct
