Camelot Pro with MIDI guitar 2 - an outdoors iPad wireless setup test (iOS)

A first simple outdoors test of the ”Setlist, song and scene manager” that work also as both ”Hardware Instrument manager” as well as ”software Instruments & fx host”. It is also a pdf music score reader and MIDI patchbay sporting a ton of other smart functions. The funny thing starting out with this was that I felt it was limited in comparison to MainStage, which was the environment I wanted to move away from. But boy, was I wrong! There is sooooo much you can do with this once you get your head around it. It was super confusing to me to begin with to start over with a new signal chain hierarchy: starting with scenes, layers, building songs, and creating setlists. And neither really resembled the mixing console channel strip, and there was no Audio vs MIDI tracks/channel distinction. Not that this is needed, but it was confusing to begin with. And then to use MIDI Guitar as a pre-processor with audio in on a side chain? Whuuuut? But it works remarkably well, and yes it replaces MainStage in my setup, especially as it works on my iPad the way it does. I am not giving you any details on how to set up in this video though, this is just an outdoors (hostile environment) test drive. I set up a few instruments (flute, tenor sax, and bass clarinet) as scenes in a song, with MIDI Guitar 2 inserted as a pre-processor plugin on the Song Rack level, making it available for all scenes in that song. Then I had to make a MIDI thru connection for each scene, connecting each instrument with MIDI guitar 2. I did also copy the scene layers that ”hold” each instrument, which means that any assignment I did for the breath controller automatically applied to each instrument. After that, it is just a matter of moving between scenes to switch instruments. That's how ”easy” it is. It is actually easy, but just on other side of the labyrinth. I will probably return with some sort of setup guide for MIDI Guitar inside Camelot soon. Till then, have a look at this, and questions in the comments as usual.
