Super new to all of this and zero programming skills, so your patience is appreciated!
I got the PO16 to be a “secondary” controller for the MiniFreak V vst, which I use as a plugin, within Logic Pro.
Using Logic’s Midi Learn function, I am assigning each pot to a specific controllable parameter in the MiniFreak VST.
I’m running into a problem where the 3rd and 4th banks on the PO16 are over-writing the learned functions from the first 2 banks.
Whereas I’m able to assign all 16 pots within banks 1 and 2, once I toggle over to bank 3, it starts “overwriting” previously assigned parameters from the first 2 banks.
I realize that this could totally come off as vague and unspecific (especially for those not familiar with Logic), so if more details are needed, let me know and I’ll do my best to provide.
Thanks, in advance, for any insights you might be able to provide!
Weird issue to be sure… So just to try and explain what I think should be happening:
Grid sends out MIDI CC messages by default from 32 to 47 on a PO16. When you switch “banks” the MIDI channel Grid sends these on changes as well, but the CC numbers stay the same.
In Logic, whichever control you map to a CC, it should disregard the MIDI channel in all cases.
For example if I try to map the first potentiometer on the PO16 on each “bank” or Page for 4 different things, the result will be that that one potentiometer will be controlling 4 parameters at the same time when turned.
However, this isn’t what’s happening to you at all…
To avoid this, I would suggest creating a Page to CC offset when creating CCs for each potentiometer in the local block in a config similar to this:
If I load that Profile onto each Page of the PO16, I will get different CCs on different Pages, when turning the same potentiometer.
This solves the issue of matching CCs at least, but I’m not sure if this would solve your problem completely.
Please try it and tell me more about this issue!
Hi! You should copy the link to your browser! It should prompt an open link in Editor dialog and the config will appear in your configs under Profile Cloud.
