====== MSC - MIDI Show Control ======

From [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIDI_Show_Control]]: 

> MIDI Show Control, or MSC, is a real-time System Exclusive extension of the international 
> Musical Instrument Digital Interface (MIDI) standard. MSC enables all types of entertainment 
> equipment to communicate with each other through the process of show control.

While [[external:mmc|]] is meant to control a particular machine - play, stop, pause, rewind etc. - 
MSC is more oriented towards the show. MSC transmits commands particular to a show: you can call 
specific cues of specific cuelists.

MIDI Show Control is supported by a number of software, e.g. by QLab: you can send MSC messages from 
QLab into Titan, in order to control the show.

As for the implementation have a look at [[https://manual.avolites.com/docs/17.0/running-the-show/midi-dmx-or-audio-triggering?_highlight=midi#midi-show-control|the manual]].
You need to set the device ID in the Timecode tab of the User Settings. Then you can call these commands:

|GO	|Fire the specified playback or cue|
|STOP	|Pause the specified playback or cue|
|RESUME	|Un-pause the specified playback or cue|
|LOAD	|Set the playback level to full|
|ALL OFF	|Release all playbacks|
|RESET	|Same as ALL OFF|
|GO OFF	|Same as resume|

Here is an example of controlling Titan from QLab via MIDI Show Control:
