antonybest Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hello guys,I'm building a LC and I have a few questions, I am struggling abit when it comes to putting it together.1. I want 8 channels, each with mute, solo, and rec arm, so 24 buttons, plus I have 8 ALPS motorfaders, plus I want transport control, ff, rw, stop, play, record and bank left & right. The ALPS need to be connected to the DINX4 correct? so I will have 39 inputs. I have 2 x DINX4, do I need to use the other inputs on the DINX4 or can I just put a 10K resistor on them and leave them?2. As there is not as many functions as a normal LC project will MIOS and app be compatible with my project or will I have to program specifically for my project? And if so how do I go about this because I haven't a clue about that sort of thing!!Sorry if this all sounds like rubbish!!ThanksAntony Best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moxi Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 The ALPS need to be connected to the DINX4 correctno, you need a MF module for the motorfaders... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antonybest Posted November 9, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hello,Sorry forgot to mention that, on the ALPS there is a touchsensitive function which as well as being connected to MF is connected to DINX4 also.SorryThanksAntony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doc Posted November 9, 2006 Report Share Posted November 9, 2006 Hi,1. I want 8 channels, each with mute, solo, and rec arm, so 24 buttons, plus I have 8 ALPS motorfaders, plus I want transport control, ff, rw, stop, play, record and bank left & right. The ALPS need to be connected to the DINX4 correct? so I will have 39 inputs. I have 2 x DINX4, do I need to use the other inputs on the DINX4 or can I just put a 10K resistor on them and leave them?As mentioned before, you'll need a MF Module for the motorfaders. The Touchsensors of the motorfaders are also connected to a din (but you have to change the resistors for them !!)If I get you right, you don't want select buttons and encoders ?If you want status leds (a must for the transport buttons ... I think) you'll also need some DOUTs.2. As there is not as many functions as a normal LC project will MIOS and app be compatible with my project or will I have to program specifically for my project? And if so how do I go about this because I haven't a clue about that sort of thing!!MIOS will be full compatible ... if you use the mackie-emulation. Which host do you want to control with LC? (Thats a important question for answering the compatibilty...!)For your setup you'll have to change the mapping a little bit but thats really no problem. I (or somebody else) can help you with that if your baby is alive.Sorry forgot to mention that, on the ALPS there is a touchsensitive function which as well as being connected to MF is connected to DINX4 also.The Touchsensors are connected to a seperate DINx registerThe Motorfaders are connected to the MF ModuleThe MF-Module ist connected to the core.greets Doc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
