talking to other apps?

I'm trying to setup a connection between lemur and beat maker 2. Beat maker documentation says that you can control beat maker's instruments with midi controllers, but I'm not having any luck doing so.

I'm using the drum pads template in lemur on the ipad. I want the notes to be directed to the instruments in beat maker. Anyone have any luck doing something like this? It looks like the drum pad sends it's midi like so:

note = mapping[changes]+offsets[offset];
vel = clamp(comparison[changes],0,100);
noteout(0,note,vel,2);

which I'm assuming means send the note to target 0, over channel 2. I've tried fiddling with these but no dice. Beat maker is connected as the Midi 1 target afaik.
Anyone successfully outputting midi from lemur to another ipad app?

Hi, j5k
Was just googling around and found this

“BeatMaker 2 DOES support MIDI learn! Sweet! I just found the learn button in the MIDI menu for each instrument.”

Hope This helps

Yeah I knew about the learn buttons but didn't try them. I connected a midi keyboard to the ipad via midi mobilizer and was able to trigger samples in the drum machine instrument just fine. I tried sending the same note values from Lemur though and nothing happens. I've selected the beat maker in/out as the targets in Lemur as well with no luck.

Does anyone know of a midi monitor app for ipad that I can use to see lemur sending midi data to it?
