B-3X controlled by Hammond XK-5

Postby Dromeus » Thu May 11, 2023 2:40 pm

When using a XK-5 as a controller for the the B-3X, it does respond to all actions on the XK-5 console with one exception: the XK-5 Vibrato Lower toggle does not work with its B-3X counter part (Vibrato Great on/off).

The B-3X Profile for the XK-5 isn't accessable for editing. Obvioulsly, the XK-5 does communicate using NRPN for toggles/switches like Vibrato/Chorus, Percussion and Leslie, and not using CCs. Therefore I don't see any chance to correct this flaw by myself.

This appears to be a bug, but honestly I can't believe that I'm the first one to detect this flaw? Is there something that I'm missing?

I'm using the latest B-3X Version 1.3.4, and have the latest XK-5 Release 3.5 firmware installed.

Please advice. Best Regards
