GreenLight 187 Posted June 1, 2019 (edited) When using many MIDI CC envelopes it can sometimes be difficult to tell them apart. It would be nice if custom names could be assigned to MIDI CC envelopes, see suggested screenshot #2. Thanks for a great product!

Promidi 814 Posted June 10, 2019 This can be done globally. Under "Controller names", "Standard" in Define instruments and Names, you can customise the list as shown below. It would be nice if this can be done per VST synth, however. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Fogle 671 Posted June 10, 2019 Per VST or effect would be much better. Not all VSTs or effect use controllers in the same manner. A good number of controllers are not assigned in the midi standard but are used in VSTs or effects. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the great tip, Promidi! I know there is a MIDI CC standard, but the parameters a MIDI CC controls are often unique per project anyway, at least for me. Any given parameter on any given VST synth could be MIDI learned to (almost) any MIDI CC number, so pre-defining global parameter names is not really feasible. Assigning a name to an envelope would probably be most convenient when creating the envelope. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenLight 187 Posted January 24, 2021 Any more takers for this? This would really simplify working with MIDI CC's! Imagine being able to set a custom name for a MIDI CC, like so: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenLight 187 Posted March 28, 2021 @Promidi Is it something like this you're after? 😀 Remembering what CC52 or CC38 does can be hard... 😂 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the tip @msmcleod that's something I had never realized/considered! 😀 It would be awesome though to be able to rename the "mouseover name" of MIDI CC's, since I rarely expand the automation lanes... I usually edit them in the main track using the Edit Filter. And it would also take effect in the menu: But still a great tip, thanks! 👍 Edited March 28, 2021 by GreenLight Added image 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Promidi 814 Posted March 28, 2021 Because I want to use the CC Controllers in the PRV. (I use the Transform a lot, for eg) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(I use the Transform a lot, for eg) Exactly, I do that a lot too. 👍 So custom MIDI CC names would have to be visible there as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GreenLight 187 Posted April 28 Could you guys please consider this? 😃 It would be so nice to be able to set custom names for the CC:s in the PRV below: Keep up the great work! ❤️ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
