Quattro with multiple controllers

Post by jrg »

Hello. I am trying to find out if I can use the quattro with the Midi Guitar App? I want to use sustain and volume
Also, how could this be used as you mention to replace the keyboard and mouse for recording>

Thanks, Jim

Hi Jim,

I'm not exactly sure what 'Midi Guitar App' refers too. Can you send me a link to the program?

Regards,
Rob

Can I use the generic remote for logic Pro 9 like you do in your video with cubase?

Yes, you can.

Here's a YouTube video describing how to set things up.

Thanks Rob, thats great.

I have a Roland piano sustain pedal that is ts not trs. Will that still work with the Quattro?
Also could I use the quattro with the controllers I need and also use a second one for the transport functions? Would i need two usb ports?

Thanks, Jim

The Roland sustain will work fine.

You might only need a single Quatto to control both the Logic transport and MIDI Guitar, it just depends on how many functions you want to control. It's also worth pointing out that you can patch together two sustain type pedals (emulate a footswitch) into a single MIDI Expression input--looks like I need to add a diagram to the FAQ about this. If you plan to use two MIDI Expressions, you will of course need two USB ports.

I updated the FAQ. look for "Can I connect two sustain pedals to a single input".
