Summary of Kemper MIDI Logic (Slots + Morph)
- CC#50–54: Load Slots 1–5 in Performance Mode or Rigs 1–5 in Browser Mode.
- Morph Triggering: If the same CC is sent again (with value 1–127), Morph is engaged.
- Morph Release: Sending value 0 disengages Morph.
- Momentary vs Latching: Controlled by the Rig’s internal “Momentary” setting.
Why Your Airstep Setup Works
- Press = CC#50–54 value 1 → Loads Rig or Slot
- Release = CC#50–54 value 0 → Ends Morph (if Momentary is enabled)
- Repeated Presses → Toggle Morph (if Momentary is disabled)
- Single Button Logic → Matches Kemper Stage/Remote behavior exactly
