Coloring different CC's within MIDI Track

Post by wonder »

I'm assigning some lighting controls from DP. I'm using DMXis (AU plugin).

I'm using CC's that aren't typically assigned (CC 20, 21, 22, etc) to draw automation and control a fader on DMXis.

Is there a way to change the colors of different automation lanes OTHER than volume, modulation, pan, etc?

They're ALL red and its confusing to look at and program.

Yup! Its called "set continuous data color", you can find it in the View/Colors menu, or map it to a keystroke in the commands page. Just highlight any of the points on the cc data you want to change first, then the "set continuous data color" command will open up a color picker for you.
