rattleandhum Posted August 10, 2005 Report Share Posted August 10, 2005 I have decided to build a variant of the low cost version of the Midibox64It would include 2 AINx4's and one CoreI would use 24 faders, 22 pots, 7 analog rocker switches, and one special pot.Does this sound plausible?ThanksKurt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK. Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 Hi Kurt,MB64 cannot emulate the Logic Control Protocol - however, without the large display it doesn't make much sense anyhow, and most MIDI software provides a good integration of such a generic controller that you are planning to build.I would suggest to add at least one DINX4 module (or one 74HC165 on a breadboard) for at least 8 buttons. This allows you to control special functions of your sequencer (e.g. Play/Stop/Record/...)Also Solo/Mute buttons can be very usefulBest Regards, Thorsten.

Jidis Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 however, without the large display it doesn't make much sense anyhowTK and Kurt- FWIW, I didn't have much trouble moving the display elements around on a 2x40 using the MB64 files, and I barely know what I'm doing ;)I've played with the main display page layouts, but there's lots of stuff that seems like it would need to be moved around to use the wide LCD. Nothing frightening, just a bunch of nudges and added characters. I've been fighting with some button mode changes the past couple nights, so the LCD offset thing is a fond memory.Now that I've seen Nuendo's ability to transmit the mapped generic remote element's MIDI messages from the program, I don't see much reason to go LC either, and the MB64 code seems written to be customized. I do like the MTC display and the track metering, but there's always MIDIMon for one of them.-George  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
