Hello,
My name is Sean Tingle and I am currently Designing Sound for our UIL Show, Beggar's Opera. There are a lot of cues going off of my sounds that are being run by ETC's Smartfade light board. However I am running into a problem. I noticed that there was a USB interface on the back of the board. I use a same exact chord that can be plugged into that slot for my Akai MPK49 at home and that seems to send a midi signal to Ableton and garageband etc. However, when I connect Qlab with Smartfade, why won't Qlab send any MIDI commands to Smartfade to execute a certain cue? Do I need a USB to MIDI cable to send signals from Qlab to the Smartfade?
Thank you for all of your guy's time.
