Title: MIDI control of Hold?
Post by: jamos on January 29, 2024, 10:57:46 AM

Is there any way to access the Hold button via MIDI?

I think that the answer is probably negative, but I thought I'd ask in case it's undocumented.

have you tried sustain pedal (CC64)? That’s the control for hold on stuff like P5/P6/OB-6/Trigon so might be worth a shot.

Ummm wow... that's it. I was thinking of Hold as being separate from Sustain, as it is on my two (non-Sequential) poly synths, but on this guy they are one and the same.

Thx!

Great. You can also use a pedal plugged straight into the back of the synth to do the same thing.
