Hello everyone
I’m new here and don’t have much knowledge of MIDI commands.
I have a controller 4 footswitch and I want to connect it to my android for playing music and stopping music with the 4 foot buttons.
A button Play an audio track
Button B stop audio track
C button to go to the previous song
D button to go to the next song
Is there anyone here who can give me detailed instructions?
Hi and welcome to the Bome community!
Unfortunately, Bome Products to not run on Android. You would need to look at Android applications that recognize MIDI through your USB port or over the network and convert it to whatever keystroke, MIDI, that your application accepts.
Sorry!

Thanks for the quick reply
I will try other solutions
Hi, I use several Mvave controllers, including the CHOCOLATE. What you want to do is completely possible in Windows. In the case of the Chocolate (version 1), if you connect it directly to your CPU via USB, it will recognize it as a MIDI device. If you connect it via Bluetooth, it is a bit more complicated. You will have to use a program that you can download from the Mvave website called ‘Bt Midi Connector’, which will recognize the CHOCOLATE as a MIDI device. You can also use the Mvave ‘MIDI B’ dongle, which will do this as well. This way, you can use the Bome Midi Translator Pro to map the MIDI commands and perform the actions you need.
I recommend that you use the CHOCOLATE in ‘Advanced Custom Mode’. In this mode, you can configure the footswitches individually with custom commands. I really like using the ‘Short Press / Long Press’ mode, because I can assign two different commands to each actuator, doubling my possibilities.
I recently posted a post here on the forum about me using a CHOCOLATE that receives commands via Alexa, check it out:
I have just purchased the M-VAVE Chocolate Plus for an extension to the foot hardware of a Virtual Pipe Organ setup. I really liked the pedalboard. It could be just a little bit less noisy, but I think it could be designed purposelly that way. I managed to set short and long presses, doubling the number of commands to 8 in one given preset. Is there a way to make virtual buttons E and F send their own MIDI messages instead of changing presets?
Hi,
I’m not sure. You would need to discuss with the manufacturer or perhaps fiddle around with the programming software to see if it has that option. I looked at the manual but it didn’t say.
Edit: Here is what google search turned up.
