Xone K2 problems

Post by robdquick »

Hi,

I have just bought myself a Xone K2 to control freestyler. Setting up the faders/pots to control submaster intensity/cue speepd works fine, however I cannot get any of the buttons to work at all. The code shows up in the midi panel when I 'learn' a button to a function, but it doesn't do anything in the actual program.

For example, I want to set a button to activate a cuelist button. This is what shows up in freestyler when I press the button:

But when I go back to freestyler, pressing the button doesn't activate the cuelist. I know the midi control is working because if I assign it to an encoder it works, so it seems to be specific to the buttons.

Here is the output from Midi-OX when I press and release the button:

TIMESTAMP IN PORT STATUS DATA1 DATA2 CHAN NOTE EVENT
0000602F 1 -- 9E 24 7F 15 C 2 Note On
000060C4 1 -- 8E 24 00 15 C 2 Note Off

I've tried activating all of the options in the options in the midi panel. but none of them seem to work.

Anybody got any ideas??

Ok, solved the problem. Buttons don't send out CC messages, only note on/off. Using Bome's Midi Translator classic to convert the note on/off to a CC makes it work.
