Wylany Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Hi guys. I created account to ask you something. I've just get a midibox of unknown origin. Connected and tried to learn my keyboard a few ccs. On the cc chart i can see thare should be a velocity but this box don't understand velo at all. Is this a construction, program or what issue? I hope this isn't any stupid question but I'm not any ingeneer, just wanna play this gear. Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johey Posted January 28, 2013 Report Share Posted January 28, 2013 Velocity isn't mapped by default. Refer to (skip the introduction posts and read from like #13). I haven't yet played with velocity on my MIDIBox SIDs, but I'm pretty sure it will work. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00dawg Posted January 31, 2013 Report Share Posted January 31, 2013 Velocity isn't terribly sensitive on the SID, but it does work (actually better than I thought it would). If you want tight control, you'd have to look at adding a VCA, the designs of which are peppered around the forum and wiki. You have to add a whole CV section for that to work but may be something to consider. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylany Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 This box is very simple, doesn't even have any display, so no chance to map anything :/ Probbably adding CV will work for me but don't have any idea of it. I'm not really familiar with electronics. I'm a musician. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johey Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) Haven't tried myself, but I guess it would make sense controlling sustain with velocity, providing attack and decay is both zero? Edit: Oh, okay. No display might add some difficulties. But I guess you could load a patch created on another box.

I'm not really familiar with electronics. I'm a musician. You can use the CTRLR panel or perhaps the older MBSID software to setup custom patches and map things however you like. It's no repalcement for a full control surface, but it'll get the job done fairly well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wylany Posted February 7, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I'm trying to use CTRLR panel. Installed, midi device chosen properly but not working. Monitor shows only midi in messages and no tweaking affects any changes. I'm going to bed. Maybe someday my prince will tweak ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m00dawg Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 CTRLR is a bit of a pain to get working for sure. Make sure you are running the /exact/ version and panel TK recommends. It often won't work otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
