Topic: map help nano pad

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

I want to map y axis on the pad to move filter knob on deck skin up and down. Im using the vdj 4 deck skin. I have the nano mapped to scene 1 = deck 1 and so on. I would like it for all 4 decks. Thank you in advance!

I don't think anyone has been able to map the xy pad to vdj yet. What you need to do is create a definition file that includes the pad as individual cc sliders, but first you need to figure out what channels they operate on using midi trace or midi ox, but I have a feeling that the xy pad changes the rate and amount that the pads midi note is repeated. I had a quick look in the manual for how to map it when Huey was asking a couple of weeks ago but couldn't see anything.

Yeah...I was hoping someone figured it out by now. Thats cool, I appreciate the response...Maybe you can help with this please...mapping the balance knob on the rmx to the filter knob, the question how do you make it work only with the selected deck. Mapping isn't my strong suit..lol
 
deck default will make the change on the deck in pfl, but you need to know a little more to map it. If the balance knob is dual deck, meaning the knob is repeated on both sides of the rxm use

device_side "left" ? action for left side : action for right side

eg. device_side "left" ? deck default filter : whatever you want the right knob to do


Or if it is a single global knob just use

deck default filter
 
You are the man sir!! Worked like a charm. Thanks!!
