Output a modifier from one controller to another?
Output a modifier from one controller to another? Posted on: 23.07.2011 by Marvella Henage Is this possible? I have an akai mpd26, which has 16 (4x4) pads I use for cue point juggling - 8 are mapped to deck a set/store hotcues 1-8, and 8 are mapped to deck b set/store hotcues 1-8. However, i want to be able to delete hotcues by using the shift button on my vci-100 (i believe it sets mod 7=1) as a modifier read by the MPD. Is there a way to "output" the modifier condition set on one controller to another? Thus, i would hold shift on the VCI and hit a hotcue on the MPD, and it would delete that cue. | |

| Dana Ordinario 23.07.2011 | try looking into third party MIDI applications like Bome's. I'm not sure if it doable but I believe that would be your best bet. |
| Marvella Henage 23.07.2011 | haha "a shitstorm of conflicts." CHALLENGE ACCEP- nah i'm not that crazy. Bummer, i'll have to find some way to map around it... |
| Tatum Ansaldo 23.07.2011 | If you set the in/out ports to 'all ports' and made a unified all in one mapping, that would give you global modifiers. But to most likely outcome of that in 99.9% of cases is going to be a shitstorm of midi conflicts, so I wouldn't recommend it. |
