Bome MIDI Translator: User's Manual 13 Tips & Tricks

13.3.5 Using Multiple Configurations

As shown in the tip Quick Access to Different Configs above, just add

multiple copies of the executable app on the thumb drive and use a

matching settings file and project file to go along.

Translator 2:

Incoming: Timer "Execute Series"

Outgoing: out 1

Translator 3:

Incoming Action, but with different Outgoing Actions. They will be
