Hi
I'm looking into the possibility of driving our new FLX from my laptop via usb and a midi interface of some kind. For shows I use Multiplay which is a brilliant FREE show sound package and it has the option to control midi devices as it can send midi control codes.
I would like to trigger the master go button via these codes.
1. Is this possible?
2. What usb to midi convertor would I need?
Thanks in advance

Be careful of purchasing the cheaper cables. Have a look at this for more info:

We've found these cables often work with MIDI TimeCode (MTC) and MIDI Notes, but not with MIDI Show Control (MSC)
