It tells my pedals what to do

It’s fine. I only use if for tapping BPM’s and changing sun divisions, and it does that. It stopped allowing me to save presets, so I’m just kind of stuck with it and it’s basic functions now, which is disappointing but oh well.

It could do a lot when it was working.
