Assigning Controllers in DP with a USB mixer

Post by rikp »

I recently purchased a Korg Kontrol 2 and I want to assign Controller 7 and 11 in DP to the faders on the Korg. Does anyone know how I go about doing this?

Thanks!

There might be an easier way I don't know about, but one way is to build a "Console". You can read about it in the Console section in the manual.

There you can make screen faders & knobs and assign sources & destinations.

However, for Volume and Pan, I'm wondering if there isn't a more direct method.

Wouldn't the MIDI track effect insert "Reassign Continuous Data" plug accomplish this?

I figured it out. I had to assign Controller CC11 and 7 to the outboard MIDI mixer faders then DP recognized them! I'm an idiot....
