Hi, I looked and could not see a feature request for this yet. It would be great if the Quad Cortex could be set up to ignore redundant MIDI commands. For example: I am using another Midi footswitch to control my Quad Cortex that is sitting in a rack. I have it programmed for each switch to select a certain Setlist, Preset and the Scence within that Preset. Even if I am changing between two scenes within the same preset, the audio cuts out and there is a delay - as it reloads the setlist & preset. It would be great if the quad cortex could ignore the redundant messages to change setlist/preset for when it is just the scene changing so that the gap in audio/the change no longer happens. Due to the current limitations, I have 1 switch set up to select the preset and then another 8, one for each scene. But that way it would not jump to the correct preset, should I not already be within the preset I desire… Best regards, Alistair ---

Quick Update: I am happy to see that this issue has been addressed in the new firmware and there is now the option to set the Quad Cortex to ignore duplicate Program Changes., ---
