Supported Equipment

This library extends PluginsManager to control third effects unit. Note that for this to be possible, the effects unit must be communicable by some protocol (usually MIDI) and someone in the community must implement support in this library. These are currently supported devices. A detailed list of support for each device is below.

• Zoom G3 v2
• Zoom MS50g v3.x

Zoom G3 v2

# Instantiate
zoom = ZoomG3v2()
# Connect the object 'zoom' with the real equipment
zoom.connect()

# Load all patches from the equipment
zoom.load_data()

# Disconnect the equipment
zoom.disconnect()

Columns:

• Command: Feature
• Pedalboard: Information sended by the Zoom G3 equipment in the "pedalboard" message data. These are usually messages about the state of a pedalboard, but it is possible (but not yet verified) that general information about the equipment is also passed, such as battery information, global level, etc ...
• Read Change: Zoom equipment informs a change applied directly in it
• Send Change: API informs changes to the Zoom equipment

Legend:

• Blank cells: Not implemented. It may be supported.
• x: Integrated with PluginsManager API
• only API: Not yet integrated with PluginsManager API
• ?: Unknown. Probably not possible
• no support: Equipment doesn't informs/receive information about

Other info:

• Changes applied by the API are not automatically saved to the device.
• If the autosave option is active on the machine, it eventually saves the latest changes. However, changes made may be lost if the connection to the equipment is terminated before the autosave saves it.
