Tonex One preset switching with usb port midi messages

[joanesinu]

Hello,

A time ago I contacted IK multimedia asking if midi switching with the usb port on the tonex one was possible. They told me it wasn't possible.

Guess what.. This dude on the video did just exactly that...

Did anyone else tried this?

I've been asking for ages to add the preset bypass disable to the normal tonex because it make the unit footswitches useless in live situation, where a misstep can turn on the bypass and you are f-ed up. So, I use a midi switcher.

If this is possible I will swap the normal one for tonex one.

They are correct, there is no Midi control possible over the USB port. What this guy is doing is interpreting Midi messages into Tonex control stream data format into the USB, there's still no midi going into the Tonex..

Excuse my ignorance, but what do we see as the main barrier to implementation of USB MIDI on the Tonex One?

The hardware requirement is the USB port, the USB to MIDI convertor block is software, isn't it? A collection of mappings from endpoints to entities and external ports?
