Description

Control the Zoom MS-50G, MS-60B and MS-70CDR with MIDI.

Select the model you are using with the box under the knobs.

Issues:

The MIDI implementation on the Zoom MS series pedals is not great. It uses sysex messages, not continuous controllers. Only the first 3 effects of a possible 6 effects can be controlled.

Sending a value to a cab parameter will just turn it off. I haven't figured out the special sysex messages to properly change them.

I have not tested every effect but the range of parameters is from 1 for a toggle to at least 600 for time on a delay. I have only set these parameter controls at a max of 150 which should work for most applications.

The response time is noticeably slow, especially the more parameters you control. This is true even for the patch change, which is standard program control messages.
