If the notes the MPD24 sends are in an OK range and it doesn't matter so much which CC numbers you are sending, then you are done, all you need to do is route the MPD in to the bidules and the resultant CCs out. but that simple setup lets you put notes in, click down on lift up off, and send corresponding ccs on off. They are not the same value, tho' and other things are not there yet, so this is where the mappings/maths comes in. Hit a key, you see the kybd sending midi notes and the CC Creator sending CCs. Hook the output from the HID data extractor to a midi monitor, then hook the output from the CC Creator to *another* midi monitor. THen you connect pin outs 1, 3 and 4 from the Note Extractor to a "CC Creator". Then, connect it to the input pin on the 'Note Extractor' bidule. This turns all of your keys into note on/off senders. You can get a glimpse at a start by setting up a plogue file with HID data extractor, setting it to keyboard. I'll have a little dig at that and report back!Ĭool- I see the tobybear site it down at this time, but the N2CC plugin allowed mapping a range of notes to a cc, which fit the bill for what I was messing with. Synchronizing tempo and musical position between modules 4. one plus to this approach is that you are not remapping the MPD24 upstream, but 'midstream', so you could still send the *notes* output to another track and be playing the notes if you want.

You will need to figure out how you want the map to work and configure thusly (le 'maths' referred to by Monsieur Fou). To remap to CC, 5- simply drop Plogue onto the PLICT, and choose the remapper that does notes to CCs. Well, as usual, it depends on exactly what you want to do, but here is one way to go about it:ġ-you route the output from your MPD24 *to track*.Ģ-arm a midi track, with the MPD24 set as the input ģ-for that track, you send the *output* to a midi yokeĤ-that midi yoke is configured as a 'remote' type input in your Live prefsĪt that point, you are sending notes in from the MPD24 and out to your yoke, to use as note messages back in for remote control. I generally run DINSYNC and clock as a programmed 1/64th triplet on a SW trigger.Quickie! Can you shed some light on converting MIDI notes to MIDI CC#s? This is a bit of sticking point, and I need to get it sorted before being able to properly use my MPD24 as a matrix controller! In all these hosts there can be varying degrees of jitter with the SW sync plug, the common factor being Pro Tools. Horribly unreliable especially with PT10 seemingly

Limited midi due to PTs way of routing midi Limited routing compared to a Plogue type host Some audio signal routing by chaining plugs in channel strip Latest version better but a bit sluggish on saveĪppears as instrument so fastest to set up in PT Pros: Saves within PT session / Allows arpeggiators etc before SW New Drum machine/sequencing possibilities with SWĬan have 16 SW plugs in a group and will act like a host in PT, plus allow 16 aux's into PT for routing to audio/digital outsĪ bit of a sledgehammer to crack a nut (memory hog) Latest v2 SW doesn't currently work (GUI problem)Ĭons:Have to save your Reaper separately from PT session Other hosting features for VI takes burden off PT Saves within PT session for instant recall Have to save your Plogue separately from PT session

Seemingly stable, works as rewire, other features can be brought into PT, VI hosting etc.

Pros: Flexible routing of SW signals / use of arpeggiators etc It's great that Os has suggested AAX might be a possibility, as you'll see there's no one definitive hosting solution thats ideal at the moment. Here's what I discovered regarding Pro Tools hosting.
