Hi!

i think this is an interesting one :)

learn key combinations or midi message combinations...

this could be useful when you deal with complex patches...

imagine to have 8 samplers and you want to record enable a certain one...

press R+1 on keyboard and the first sampler start recording
press S+1 and it stops...

pres R+4 and the 4th samples start recording...
press S+4 and the 4th sampler stops...

it can be good with midi messages...

CC9 (127) + CC1 (127) the 1st sampler record
CC10 (127) + CC1 (127) the 1st sampler stops


CC9 (127) + CC4 (127) the 4th sampler record
CC10 (127) + CC4 (127) the 4th sampler stops

:)

Good suggestion.
For multiple key learn I propose a text field where could you enter a word like ?R1? ?R2?. It seems to be very simple. In fact the intern structure of Usine can already handle this function.
For multiple Midi, it?s harder but not impossible.
I?m gone work on It.

agree....and a way to support special keys like

"shift"R

or "ctrl"b


i propose to put special keys in quotes do distinguish from normal key combs

hi,
would it be possible to have learn combinations for MIDI+MIDI and MIDI+key?
it would be useful when you have to control several copies of the same patch..i.e. 4 live loopers , 4 delays

great work senso on the 2.5 :)

Do you have an example?
I'm not sure I understand what you really need.

hi senso,
i try to explain

4 different delay patches

i want to have physical control for delay time, feedback, and volume..

for a total of 12 midi/osc/ controllers

what i'd like is to be able to keep the "1" key on the computer keyboard while moving a fader/knob assigned to i.e. delay time..
this would modulate the delay time on my first delay patch..
"2" + the same fader/knob would modulate the second patch delay time...

or you could use a midi/osc button + a midi slider

say CC64=127 + CC01 = 0..127 would modulate first patch delay time
CC65=127 + CC01 = 0..127 the second patch delay time..

all the above reduce significantly the number of controllers needed for "cloned" patches

thanx

hello Lalo
perhaps, the best thing should be to add a midi option like:
'midi process only on the selected track' in the remote panel

then, in your case, just select the track and move your controls.

simpler?

hi senso,
it's a good idea..
..but it wouldn't work in case you have "cloned" patches on the same track..
..wich is a common thing for me..when i work on dense textures with delays/samplers i find confortable to have everything in the same patch/track...

the idea i proposed would reduce a lot the complexity and the number of phisical controls

thanx
