More MIDI control options

Post by planewash »

I am using a BCF2000 to control FS and it's working great. But there is a few options I miss in the MIDI control list:
Sound to light - Gain and/or sensitivity
DMX400 - All functions, but most important: Master fader and Program button.
Fog - Fan and Level control.

As mentioned earlier in the forum the Submaster Stop function should be accessible from MIDI.

I would also like a MIDI (or keyboard) function to select the next/previous sequence on the Cuelist. It would make my life a lot easier!

With regard your question about the cuelist, I use submasters to do this.

I place the cuelist on a submaster and then use midi notes to go up and down the list (go and back buttons) and then another midi note to select the sequence (toggle submaster). I actually have the midi software I am using (glovepie) output the go and toggle, or back and toggle, together. This means I press one button to step up the list and one to step down, automatically selecting the relevant sequence.

I then use different submasters for different things, such as movements, colour/shutter chases etc.

Does that make any sense?


I also agree with Planewash that the submaster stop button should definately be available from midi!
