[Solved] "Reset controllers when playback stop" --> NOT used Midi Controllers


Heinz Hupfer

Question

HI:)

 

I found following:

============================================

NoControllerReset=n
Any port/channel using an instrument definition that has a NoControllerReset flag set to 1 does not receive a "zero controller"
message upon stop. You can enter this variable in any instrument definition by using a text editor, such as Windows Notepad. The
variable should be entered directly below an instrument definition. For example:
[Yamaha Promix 01 Control Chan]
NoControllerReset=1
Control=Yamaha Promix 01 Control Chan
Patch[*]=Yamaha Pro Mix 01
This parameter should be used when it is undesirable to zero/reset controllers when playback stop, such as when using an external
effects processor that uses MIDI controllers for real-time parameter control, or when using a digital mixer as a MIDI control surface
(and not using the generic control surface plug-in)

============================================

How can I use this to my attached midi controllers not to RESET when "Reset Controllers on Stop" is enabled?

 

Thanks;)

Bassman.

HI:)

 

@Nigel Mackay

I only use this midi controller with AZController (Midi In/Out).

But where to put an Instrument File? There are no Sounds, Note Names or Patches, it's just a Midi Controller with some User Presets.

Do I have to insert a few Lines into the Master.ins? Normally you use Instrument definitions in a Midi Track, but I don't use a midi Track for the controller, so I cannot put the Instrument File to.......

HI:)

 

@Nigel Mackay

I'm in contact with Alexey, he has had no solution for this problem but blocking all incoming controllers from Cakewalk inside AZController.

The problem is then I cannot use buttons as "normal" midi buttons to play drums for example....

Perhaps he did not know this "NoControllerReset=1". I'm trying out some things.....back soon:)

HI again:)

 

OK! It works:)  

1. Make an Instrument File (LaunchControlXL.ins for me) with following Content and save it to ..\Cakewalk Content\Cakewalk Core\Instruments:

============================

.Patch Names
.Note Names
.Controller Names
.Instrument Definitions

[LaunchControlXL]
NoControllerReset=1
Control=LaunchControlXL
Patch[*]=1..8
Key[*,*]=LaunchControlXL
============================

 

2. In the preferences-->Midi-->Instruments-->Port/All Channels of the Controller-->Define--> Import (The made .ins File)

 

Now this Controller is not resetted on Settings--> Project-->More Midi-->"Reset Controller when playback stop" enabled.

 

That's so nice, why have I not found it earlier? 

 

Great;)

Bassman.
