Custom Consoles Not Working In All Chunks

Post by JSmith1234567 »

I'm having some weirdness where a Custom Console I created doesn't work when I switch chunks?

Has anyone else had this problem?

It works for my main template, but when I copy that chunk to work on an alternate take the Custom Console doesn't work in the newly created Chunk?

Thanks!

I'm not sure, but are MIDI instruments the target of the sliders or buttons in your Custom Console? Maybe it unlinks from the target assignments? You could go into "Edit Mode" on the Custom Console and look to see if anything has changed perhaps?

Hey man that is EXACTLY it.

That clipping window is all MIDI-track assignments.

It just gives me a readout of cc #1 on certain tracks that use it, which there is no easy way of punching in and out levels, as opposed to cc #7.

It loses all connections to the tracks.

I have the same problem with attaching MIDI controllers to certain faders.

It works in the chunk, but not if you duplicate the chunk.

Man I wish MOTU would update custom-consoles finally?

Or let you have multiple mixing-boards open?

Custom Consoles still look like a 25 year old Atari interface or something.

I love DP and am never switching, but sometimes I see "environments" and the like in Logic, and some of the Nuendo stuff...
