Making Parameter Value 30 send value 0

Hi everyone!

Since my previous post, I switched from Encoders to 3x PO16 and 3x EF44. Everything is working GREAT!

I just have one thing to wish for.

On some faders, I want to have a higher resolution around the area I actually use. Let’s say I have a fader of a EF44 controlling a volume fader in a DAW. I only need to use that fader between levels -32 to +12dB. In parameter values that means value 30-127. However, in a dream world whenever I pull down the fader to -32 (parameter value 30), the fader would send parameter value 0 instead of 30, hence turning down the fader in the DAW to -infinity. Is there a midi message I can give the fader that will make this happen?

Cheers!

Hi Daniel,

If I understand correctly, you want to send 0 instead of the value based on the fader position, whenever the value of the fader would be equal or under 30.

This is kind of simple to achieve in Editor, let me show how:

zero_if_lower_30

There is also another way, which might be better. This just limits the value output of your fader from 30 to 127 and is much simpler to configure:

limit_fader_range

Hi Narayb!

Thank you so much!

That second suggestion I already did, but that method was lacking the “channel mute” that I was hoping for. Your first suggestion is exactly what I was looking for and i’ve already put it on all my faders.

Thanks again!

Cheers
