Hi, I have a Boss RC 300 Looper and a Boss DR880. I would like to use the both in live performances. As you all know its good to keep things simple when performing live as a duo or in a band.
I'd like to get my RC 300 to control my DR880 but I don't know enough about midi control change messaging. I have been successful in syncing them and the play / dub and stop pedals work well in that I can start and stop the DR 880.
My goal is to:
1. Change Songs, Banks and or patterns when I change the phrase memory on the RC 300 so I don't have to change both machines between songs
2. I'd like to be able change patterns or favorites during a song using a assigned CC# from the RC 300
3. I'd like to be able to start and stop the DR880 using a assigned CC# from the RC 300
4. And Lastly I'd like to be able to control the volume of the DR880 using a assigned CC# from the RC300
Can anybody help or are my goals just a pipe dream and can't be done?

Thanks to anyone that can help with this.
