FA06 loading presets with Android device

Post by quietstorm4970 »

Hi there!
I'm searching a way to send USB MIDI commands from an Android 12 tablet connected to the USB port of my FA 06.
To be honest, I'd like to have an app with a sort of archive where I can save song text annotations (like chords or similar) and contextually send on request Studio Set / Program Changes commands thru the USB interface.
I saw something similar done with an iPad, but I don't know the app name.
Is there something similar for Android?

You could try MobileSheets. I love this app on my Samsung Tab and it can send MIDI.

Thanks for the reply!
This app seems very good to keep sheets ands stuff, but I couldn't find any feature about receiving and sending Program changes to the keyboard.
Do you know anything about that?

I didn't try it with my FA-08 yet but the App can send and receive Midi like Program Changes, Patch Select and CC. You can link sheets with Midi or create Smart Buttons. Isn't there a free trial version? So you can download and try.

No trial version, but I think it's worth that money.
Thanks, I'll give it a try...
