Reply to Question about sustaining MIDI commands

Hi guys,

I've been using an X1 for the past few months (with ITCH) as a keyboard emulator that gives me access to all five cue points and control of the SP-6 Sampler on a controller. I've been using the free version of Bome's MIDI Translator.

However, I have not been successful in figuring out how to execute multiple-key instructions (for example, SHIFT + L arrow, which would load a track to the left deck). Also, I can only move between cue points while the track is playing. If I hit a cue point button while the track is paused, the button press simply acts as if I hit the cue button for a minuscule period of time - it moves to the pressed cue point, but I cannot get it to act as if I were holding down a pressed hotcue.

I believe that these issues are related, and that the core problem is that none of the midi signals to Bome's are sustained while I hold a button down. Essentially, each button press only executes the corresponding MIDI command for an infinitesimally small period of time.

Does anyone know how to resolve this?
