mongrol Posted March 14, 2017 Report Share Posted March 14, 2017 Hi folks, Is there a way to use tracks containing parameters only (CC's in this case) and apply them to other note tracks? Perhaps using some bus shennanigans? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jjonas Posted March 16, 2017 Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Did you see Section 6.1. and its subsection, 6.1.6. (Sending internal CCs over a bus to control track settings) in the Beginner's Guide? Quote It is possible to send internal CC data over a bus to change a track's (or even the sequencer's) settings. To effect this, there's three settings you need to make on the sending track. First, on the sending track's EVENT page, select a CC parameter layer. Second, set the track's Port to send over Bus1. Bus1 can be set to 'Jam' or 'T&A', it makes no difference. Once the Port setting is set to 'Bus1', the CC layer options on the right LCD change to loopback CC control options, instead of normal CC options. For example, CC#49 now allows you to control another track's octave transpose. The final setting you need to make is the sending track's Chn. setting (on the EVENT page) to determine which track you want to control with the internal CCs. Normally the Chn. setting has no effect if Port is set to a bus, but here it does. However, in this case the Chn. setting doesn't denote MIDI channel, but the receiving track's ordinal number. For example, if you want to control track G1T1, which is playing a synthesizer on MIDI channel 5, you set Chn. to '1' (and not '5') on the sending track's EVENT page. If you're not controlling track settings with CCs, but sequencer settings (like CC#03 to set the scale), Chn. setting makes no difference. It is important to note that sending internal CCs over a bus to control another track doesn't require any setup in the receiving track. All the settings are done on the sending track's EVENT page. The full list of MBSEQv4 CC implementation is available in Appendix 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mongrol Posted March 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2017 Hah! y'know jjonas, I'm starting to think everytime I ask a question you add a new bit to the beginners guide then point it out to me. :) Thanks mate. You've done a rock job on that guide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
