Hi,
I need to somehow link different text lines to midi notes, so when i eg. trigger c-2 , it shows one text line, when i trigger d-2, it shows another, and so on.

Really hope someone can help me !

Best regards,
Rasmus

not sure what you mean by showing one text line... do you mean message boxes?

it could be "Break on cue, and play intro" or "Loop chorus", each of them linked to a midi note so when a note is triggered, it shows the text in a nice and big font. only one is supposed to be shown at a time :)
