Toggling with NanoKontrol?

Postby philthomson » Mon Apr 30, 2012 7:45 pm

Hi all,

I have a NanoKontrol I would like to use with Bidule. Mostly, I want to use the 'mute' buttons to mute particular things.

What I would like to be able to do is to hit a button on the controller and have that mute a particular device. What I have tried is to right-click on a desired device, choose 'Control from Midi', choose Mode and then hit the button on the controller. There are two problems with this approach: 1) The device switches to bypass when the button is pressed, not mute, and 2) the change only lasts for as long as the button is held down.

Is there a way to do what I want to do? Below is what is output when I press and release one of the buttons on the controller.

Code: Select all
Chn:  1 CC( 32): 127
Chn:  1 CC( 32):   0

You could always use a CC Value Remapper and a MIDI CC To Params to get it to switch between mute and bypass but if the button doesn't stay down you'll have to build something that creates a trigger from a CC Value of 127 and uses that to advance to the next entry of a Value List that goes into a Parameter Modulator. Alternatively you could also remap the CC to a Note and use Note On To Value List.

Cant you set your nanokontrol's behavior to toggle vs. momentary?

I see posts about that in various forums.

Thanks all. I had the Kontrol software, but it never seemed to work. Just now, it miraculously worked and it seems that I am able to make all the changes I need. Thanks again.
