Hey Friends,
I'm looking at building a custom midi controller for playing around with stems
-the plan so far is to build a controller that resembles and expands on nicotux's stems mixer window and place it ontop a free space of my mixer pictured here:
nicotux's vb skin stem window

why ontop of my prime 4's screen?, coz its laggy asf with vdj, im using a higher refreshing 29" display attached to my case instead.
as pictured, but not set in stone the stems midi controller might include
5 x faders = kick/bass/isntru/vocal/hihat
10 x centre detent knob pots for an alternate mixing type to faders
10 x latching pads for deck A /deck B stem mutes
10 x extra buttons for solo'ing a stem
40 x buttons to control the xa1-8, ad1-8,XV1-8,VD1-8 buttons
more????
the controller will be made open source and 3d printable as im going to up it to thingiverse for maximum love.
-am thinking of call this project 'SysStemic'
what are your thoughts ?
questions-
would anybody out there be interested in making me a custom skin for this project ? -i can pay for your services :) comission?? commission ?? $$$$
also do any of you know the mapping command to
'play deck 1(a) and clone playback[instant double] to deck 3(c) and/or other decks' at the same time?
would love to hear some feedback :)
cheers,
.Luke

I assign a set of decks to crossfader side 1 for left & 3 and 2 & 4 for right by default, other have to be set by hand
then use things like this
LoadStem left deck = deck all cross_assign left? load :
LoadStem right deck = deck all cross_assign right ? load :
LoadStem= leftdeck ? deck all cross_assign 'left' ? load : : deck all cross_assign right ? load :
same for play, stop, loops...
More examples exitst in the forum but was not able to find them
Note due to multiple decks, bleed need to be set in a way not to amplify overlapping filter zone
Well it's always a good idea to get ideas like this :)
mybe consider HID instead of MIDI, it's simpler and more customizable
