Audiobus: Use your music apps together.
What is Audiobus? — Audiobus is an award-winning music app for iPhone and iPad which lets you use your other music apps together. Chain effects on your favourite synth, run the output of apps or Audio Units into an app like GarageBand or Loopy, or select a different audio interface output for each app. Route MIDI between apps — drive a synth from a MIDI sequencer, or add an arpeggiator to your MIDI keyboard — or sync with your external MIDI gear. And control your entire setup from a MIDI controller.

LaunchPad Pro Sysex
Not sure if it's possible but I'd like to send Sysex messages from Lemur on an iPad to the LPP - I'm pretty sure this part is possible.
What I'd like to change via Sysex is custom modes 1-8 and Projects but I can't find anywhere what the Sysex message is for these so I'm thinking it's not possible...
Anyone know?

if you had entered the topic title in Google, this would have been the result:

The original Launchpad Pro doesn't have custom modes, so I assume @wexy means the LPP3
Not sure if it's mentioned in the Programmers guide but hopefully this link works:

Ok, Just worked out the Custom pages:
*** Template numbers (00-07) fo pages 1-8
SysEx: F0 00 20 29 02 0E 00 03 *** 00 F7
So custom page 6 will be: F0 00 20 29 02 0E 00 03 05 00 F7
That was the problem I been looking in the wrong programmes manual far out THANKS
So I've managed to send Sysex messages to the LPP from my Lemur controller
to change some layouts and custom modes which is great as I have 8 scales set in 8 custom modes that can be triggered seamlessly by Lemur to LPP & RC 505 Looper!!!
I guess the only thing that I really want to do is change projects too. I can get to the page but it doesn't seem possible to select a project which is a shame because that would allow changing the scale as well.
You would think sending a CC or note midi would be nice or program change event hopefully they can implement something here
Thanks this was really helpful to get me started took some trial and error to get the correct code out of Lemur but I got there and learnt a lot and now have another rabbit hole to go down haha
That's great! Would you consider sharing the layout file? I'd love to have a go and I don't mind if it isn't finished yet.
I'd just like to see how you put this together, cheers.
Not at all. The main project is quite complex so I'll include the LP part as a separate file

That's great, thanks! I'll give these a spin tonight.
I’ll put a video together soon showing how the system works it’s kind of an integrated system and built on Lemur, AUM, Atom, Launchpad and RC 505 for free flow jams and cover songs
Good stuff. Sounds very interesting.
I"ve been working on somethings involving sysex as well and my next step is to see I can can do exactly what you are doing.
You can call the scale setting page via sysex:
Decimal Version: 240 0 32 41 2 14 0 5 0 0 247
Curious if youve tried to send a midi note to the launchpad with its assigned pad's midi note and see if it actually selects the scale. Could be a possible work around for you as opposed to calling a project slot (which I believe you cannot call via sysex). This is a couple steps down my punchlist, but I'd love to compare some notes as it seems you are going down the same rabbit hole as I am.
Also curious if you have decent resources for lemur. The ones i've found online are dead forum pages and lemur documentation is just god awful.
Its early here.....looking at your graphic, I see you already have a button for Scale Settings.
Derp....
Yeah I’ve setup 8 scales that map to 8 custom grids with those scales 6 octaves and a drum pad in those scales that’s the best I could achieve with Sysex but it works great

Yeah, I got most of lemur. Its more the scripting part of it that I can use some documentation on.
Yeah I had to work it out last night myself im basically just using midiout(0,GetSysexmessage());
Calling and sending out something like this
a[0]=0xF0;
a[1]=0x00;
a[2]=0x20;
a[3]=0x29;
a[4]=0x02;
a[5]=0x0E;
a[6]=0x00;
a[7]=0x04;
a[8]=0x00;
a[9]=0x00;
a[10]=0xF7;
