Help with Numark Total Control please
Help with Numark Total Control please Posted on: 09.05.2012 by Katherina Oldson I have had this controller for a few months now on the most important week its not functioning well. everything on the controller works except some of the buttons on the right side (deck b) load track, set cue, cue, and the the play buttons are the only things not working on the controller. i have tried it on other software like traktor but the buttons are not working. i know they work because i click play with the mouse and the led lightsup on the controller but when trying to press play on the controller it wont respond. please someone help me i have a gig on saturday. i have also tried putting other ts1 but those buttons will not respond. | |

| Lorine Krattli 18.05.2012 | I had a similar problem on my old Numark Omnicontrol. I took it back to where I had purchased and as it was under waranty they sent it for repair, turns out the PCB was damaged. I got it back and 5 weeks later same thing happened again and it was sent back and Alesis fully replaced the unti as the PCB went again. Guy in the shop said they get numark stuff back all the time with similar issues so i went and got a twitch instead. |
| Katherina Oldson 17.05.2012 | thank you guys for your help, i made a quick video to show whats wrong, please watch |
| Chasidy Heckenbach 14.05.2012 | when you press only the play button, without releasing, you get more than one midi message generated? if so does sound like a hardware bug. i've had pots on some of my controllers send out a stream of messages when it's bordering between two of them. if the 'extra messages' are cc's there's a good chance they're from a pot, if your buttons usually send out note messages. maybe pressing the play button is causing the case to bend slightly and triggering something else? comparing the midi dump to the spec for the controller, or even just the tsi, should tell you what they are - and if they're just totally bogus or not. |
| Katherina Oldson 14.05.2012 | Yes it sends the message put the play button sends 4 different messages. And when I install the traktor tsi file it still sends different messages. |
| Melinda Wubben 14.05.2012 | If the buttons don't send MIDI and you've confirmed this with another computer, the controller is broken. I hope it's still under warranty. |
| Katherina Oldson 13.05.2012 | I used MIDItrace and it worked like a charm, my controller was brand new again, it got me through the evening . But now I'm have the same problem all over again, I tried using MIDItrace again but the same buttons wil not send messages. Please help its an internal problem I don't know how to fix. |
| Melinda Wubben 10.05.2012 | So, you know the LEDs on the buttons work, not if the buttons send MIDI data. Try using MIDI learn for the functions you need, and see if anything comes out from the controller side. If not, it's b0rked. If yes, your mappings are just messed up. |
