Using Rapture Pro/Session With A Controller

[sjoens]

Rapture Session Instrument window has 8 macro knobs, a pan knob, a volume fader and a LIMIT button that can be mapped to a controller, but there are inconsistencies between the standalone and plugin versions.

1. Standalone allows you to map controllers to the instrument knobs using MIDI learn, but when used as a plugin the mapping is already set and can't be changed.

-  Is that right?  If so...

2. The plugin's mappings are all over the place and difficult to remember which controller knob does what.  Can that be overridden or is it a bug?

 

3.  When mapping the standalone version, none of the parameters respond to my 3rd controller "pot" (which "works" in CbB as a pan knob).

edit: System reboot seems to have corrected the pot issue

-  As a plugin the 3rd controller knob is hard mapped to the LIMIT switch.  However, in standalone the LIMIT switch is not even mappable.  Is this a bug?

 

4. In any usage, you can't map a controller to instruments that aren't already pre-mapped.  Is this only doable in Rapture Pro?

edit: System reboot seems to have corrected this also.  ATM anyway I can map controllers in standalone at least.

Then there's times when standalone doesn't respond at all to any mappings.

edit: Probably due to system glitches.  Sometimes it works great, other times not at all.

 

5. Is there no way to save settings made in the Instrument window?

Thanks.
