Hello,
I’ve been spending some time diving into my v5 machine (my first zynthain) and really enjoying all it has to offer! There’s lots to explore in this machine.
I tried midi learning tempo bpm from the metronome screen but nothing seems to happen. None of the tempo settings seem to respond to midi learn. Is that right, or am I just doing something wrong.
Hi @Jpbm - that’s right I think, but I’m not sure I understand what you’re asking. MIDI Learn lets you ‘teach’ the Zynthian which Synth Parameter is controlled by a particular encoder. What do you want your Zynthian to learn from the metronome screen?
I was hoping I could change the bpm tempo with my midi controller, as well as turn the metronome on and off with my midi controller.
Ahhh, I think that ‘should’ be possible, I’ll have to try it and see. Might not be today.
OK, I got a chance to try it, and as far as I can tell midi learn is not implemented on the metronome screen. There may be some way to do what you want, but I could not find it. Hopefully someone else who does know or can actually fix that will chime in here.
One thing I should have asked - have you been able to use the midi learn function in general as described in the user’s guide?:

I thought there might be a way to do it via " CUIA: Callable UI Actions" but I couldn’t find it there either:

MIDI learning is not currently implemented for tempo screen. Please, open a feature request in our tracking system.
@riban, is it implemented in the chain-refact branch?
Thanks!
I’ve been able to use midi learn on other parameters. I just submitted a ticket for new feature request.
No! I have not changed the behaviour of this screen. I guess the MIDI learn code isn’t implemented on it. The screen is derived from zynthian_gui_base. Maybe it should be derived from zynthian_gui_control.
