Hi,
When I bought the NanoKontrol Studio, I wanted to
use the 8 sliders as MIDI Controllers. For example :
- Slider 1 : MIDI CC 7 controlling the Volume
- Slider 2 : MIDI CC 11 controlling the Expression
- Slider 3 : MIDI CC 10 controlling the Pan
- Slider 4 : MIDI CC 21 controlling the Vibrato
(I could continue until the slider n°8 but let’s say, I’m ok with 4 different MIDI CCs).
In my DAW (Digital Performer), I have 2 tracks (for example).
IS IT POSSIBLE that the 4 Sliders (4 different MIDI Controllers)
control the track n°1 in Digital Performer and the SAME 4 CONTROLLERS the track n°2 ?
If yes, does somebody can help me by showing me the exact step by step process to succeed ?
Thanks !

Re: NanoKontrol Studio & Digital Performer and NanoKontrol E
I use the original Nano Kontrol, and like it.
Two things to think about...you can use it to generically control certain cc#s for whatever track is currently in record.
You can also use it with DP's "attach controller" function to permanently attach a controller to a certain fader.
This works, but it has always been a little buggy in DP. If you try to "detach" or clear the controller, DP usually crashes.
One other weirdness; I actually had two Nano Kontrols (one for my portable setup) originally.
I found that when you attach a controller to a fader, it would not work with the second Nano Kontroller which was set up identically, so I just use the original one now and take it with me when I use the portable setup.

I tried to use the Attach MIDI Controller and it works.
But Nano Controller seems to be SO DIFFICULT and no explanations no where !
It seems that by default the slider 1 is set up on CC7, right ?
How can I change it to CC11 ?
And second, is the Control Editor really useful ?
Thanks for your help !
