Moderator jfk Posted May 19, 2014 Moderator Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 What does "... map MIDI controllers ..." mean? The MIDI input learn capability typically makes it pretty easy to link a WATCHOUT input object to a specific action on a MIDI device. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLenine Posted May 19, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 19, 2014 In modul8 for example, the command is called MIDI Key mapping. I need help on mapping specific buttons on the interface to the keys on the controller... The keys are all set on watchout input panel, but it's hard to link the keys to the interface buttons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

limeworks Posted May 20, 2014 Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 You don't have to map anything - just setup the inputs to respond. This has to be done one by one for each key/pad/control on the surface. There is no way to natively map it like you do a DAW / Sequencer to control play / pause etc. Personally i have started using QLab as a Watchout controller, simply for its comprehensive control ability. Watchout is still champion for actual output however IMO - and QLab can't compete with this. Rob 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dataton Partner Walter Posted May 20, 2014 Dataton Partner Report Share Posted May 20, 2014 I have a tip though : you only have to create all notes / controllers once. If you have created, named and linked all buttons and faders, just select all inputs, copy them and paste in a txt file. Name this file "korg nano2" for instance. Next show you create and use this controller, just open txt file, select all and copy, open input windows, paste and you have all your inputs from this device back! Ideal timesaver IMHO.

Moderator jfk Posted May 22, 2014 Moderator Report Share Posted May 22, 2014 I also need to understand better the sintax on the Trigger command line, in ths task window. Have you read the WATCHOUT 5.2 User Guide, Chapter 12, Tasks and Expressions, starting on page 209 ? Perhaps you could be a little more specific on your areas of uncertainty? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member matkeane Posted June 2, 2015 Member Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 I have had text files for the Korg NanoKontrol 1 and an Akai LPD8 hanging around on a USB key for a while. This thread finally prompted me to put them up on Github where anybody can grab them (and I can find them again when I need them!) - https://github.com/matkeane/watchout-snippets 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
