CW with nanakontrol2 and midi control

Recommended Posts

Hi there,

I just set up my Korg Nanokontrol 2 with cakewalk and I have it working as a control surface. Play/stop/mute etc. All working great.

What I wish to do though, is use it to control parameters inside softsynths. Like, hit "learn" move a control on the Korg and it gets recognized in the soft synth.

i can't seem to get that going. Can anyone point me to a tutorial or document that explains this?

Or just give me an idea what might be wrong? I have it set up and checked in midi devices in and out but Cakewalk doesn't seem to respond to any messages. Perhaps because it's set up as an Act controller? Not sure.

Any help would be appreciated...

Thanks!

Jono

Thanks, it is a little.

I have it going now.

I removed it from being a Mackie control surface and used the Korg Control Editor to set it up as a CC controller. Then you unplug it, hold down "set" and "cycle" while you plug it back in. Then I opened Cakewalk and it functioned like a midi CC controller. (To use as a control surface you unplug it and hold "Set" and "Record" while plugging it back in.

Thanks!
