Dear all, I've been having this curious problem with mixed up themes ever since the first version of DP9. I also have DP 8.07 installed, and there all themes work correctly. However, when for instance selecting the Medium Dark theme in DP9, the icons on the tool palette as well as the pan pots are s...

Hi MediaComposer88, I understand what you are trying to do! In order to achieve this, you will need to set the pot pick-up settings within your DAW. This way the automation is not written again until you reach the pick-up point. Since the Controller only sends MIDI data, it is sending MIDI data to ...

Hi MediaComposer88, When using Automap (even in Advance Mode) CC#11 is scripted to control the expression pedal. So it seems that DP may be overwriting your assignment pop pick-up because of this. Since you mentioned that other CC#s do function correctly, this further suggests that is what is happe...

MediaComposer, I don't know if this is what you're missing, but remember that for each "device (VI)" you want to automate using Automap, you must create a Virtual MIDI channel (page 18 of Automap 4 user guide). Hi FMiguelez, I selected enabled all 16 MIDI channels (in Automap > Software S...

Not sure to get what you're after, but: - I do use HUI emulation on my computer - Novation info: *The latest version of Automap will include a DAW Setup Guide*, that's what I've been thru to set HUI emulation - to record automation (which I never do, only graphic mixing) I think you need to turn on...

Answers are in p25 and p22 of english Novation user manual. It's called *Pot Pick-up - Pick up* Access is in Novation SLMKII Global menu and in Template edit menu. The setting to get the *second scenario* is ON. First scenario is OFF. BTW, in my setup, I only use Automap, no specific template, so e...

AFAICT, in my 25 and 49SLMKII, the faders can only : - pick the value as soon as I move the sliders OR - pick the value as soon as I reach the actual DAW value and go farther up or down. This last one is what I decided to go with, for the levels or VI values has to be somewhere before my first move...

Take a look at the Creating and Editing Advanced Mode Templates on page 28 of the user guide. There is a Additional Options section only for the Encoders and how they can function as an "endless control". Thanks for the suggestion! I found out how to change these settings, but so far, not...

Hi all, I recently added a Novation Zero SL MkII to my setup for assigning CCs to control my virtual instruments. I got everything setup like I want it, save for one thing: the slider/pot pick-up (aka soft take-over) feature only seems to work with CC7, not with - for instance - CC11. I'm working in...

Thanks for your suggestions! It doesn't look like the AAM sends out MIDI controller data. One quick way to check is with Snoize MIDI Monitor: http://www.snoize.com/ I used Snoize MIDI Monitor to check things out, and indeed everything coming out of the Artist Mix does not show up, whereas control me...

Hello all, I use an Avid Artist Mix as my control surface, and I'm aware it's meant as a dedicated mix controller rather than a controller that allows you to assign any cc to any knob/fader. However, I've been trying to find a workaround for this, so far without success. Here's the problem: when cre...

Hey all, I'm trying to do the following: creating a custom console slider in order to translate incoming CC7 signals to CC11. I'm trying to do it in such a way, that on a MIDI track, recording CC7 automation by moving the software fader of that track in the Mixer Page will directly translate into CC...

Hey all, I'm looking for a good MIDI control surface and it seems that there's a clear distinction in controllers that are very customizable and more dedicated controllers that function as a standard mixer. Ideally, I'm looking for a controller that can act in both ways. As far as I know, the Mackie...

Hi mhschmieder,

Thanks for your opinion on the Acuna, I'll keep that in mind.

Well, based on too much conflicting stories on build, quality control, and costumer support, I decided to take a different route: buying a separate control console (Livid Instruments for instance) and opting for a MIDI keyboard without an array of knobs/faders. Do any of you guys own (or have experi...
