problem getting basic midi control/note working to chg seq's

Post by cobra »

on 3.4.8, I used the midi learn to assign keys to functions fine, tried different pages, have start pressed, have edit unpressed, (still not sure what the shift button does...)

but I can't get FS to execute Toggle Sequence when I press the MIDI key, it must be something simple....

anyone have an idea why it isn't starting sequence??

I think I really like FS otherwise!
Here is an Image of my setup: http://nettrust.com/tmp/FS.png

My goal is to use a DAW sequencer to trigger FS sequences.

Thanks

Hi

and realy strange because i tried it with the BCF2000 and it works fine.

so what kind of Midi message does you Midicontroller send..

it should be CC# and the buttons should work like a Flash button.

as example
HEX - > DEC
on press B0 32 7F -> B0 50 127
on release B0 32 00 -> B0 50 00

Thanks,

I think I figured it out, it only works if note-on velocity is 127, and I found the threshold in freestyler.ini, which i've now set to 1 from 127.

Now the only thing i have to complain about is the 5-pin out on my Enttec! I can only render in EasyView until my adapter comes :(
