I want to match a touchstrip on a stanton scs.3d (DaScratch) to a rotary knob on my remote sl, essentially creating a 1=1 controller ratio. I have never dealt with programming these types of things before and just need help, I am totally lost as to how to interperet the rules concept and programming methods?

Mac OSX Beta.

!!!NOT USING AUTOMAP!!!

it's just a hardware midi template.

any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,

here is a first example:

Code: Select all

Translator 2: S1 - Absolute IN - Absolute OUT
Options: stop=false
Incoming: MIDI B0 07 oo 
Rules: 
  ga=oo
Outgoing: MIDI B7 60 ga

This is for example used for Traktor with the left slider (gain).

You get an incoming Midi from DaScratch. The local variable oo is saving the velocity. In the rules section the value of the local variable is saved in the global variable. So, Midi Translator remebers this value forever. In the outgoing action we use the variable for the velocity again.

Hope this helps.

I am still pretty uncertain of hoe to program this, but I will try writing some rules and see if I can make sense of them, thanks for the sample info though.
