JunoControl - M4L Patch for the Roland JUNO-106

[oddeo]

I wrote JunoControl.amxd to make automating the Juno-106 much easier in Ableton Live. The knobs are set to automap like macro controller knobs (on the APC40 you can access the 8 knobs on the right by holding shift and pressing 2). To flip the switches up or down click on the text rather than the actual switch (i.e. + or - for the ENV POL).

With the exception of the program change display, this patch is unidirectional and will not sync to any changes made on the Juno-106 hardware. (If someone would like to put in the time to code this patch to be bidirectional that would be great)

To overcome the SysEx messaging issue currently posed by Live I wrote a router called JunoRouter.maxpat. This MUST be open in Max Runtime.

Suggested instructions:

Drop JunoControl.amxd on a MIDI track in Ableton Live
Drop an External Instrument to the right of JunoControl. Set the MIDI and Audio routings according to your setup.
Unfreeze the patch to access the JunoRouter.maxpat
Right click JunoRouter.maxpat and “Open With” MAX Runtime.
Select the MIDI Port your Juno-106 hardware is connected to. Set this up in the Audio/MIDI application(Mac). (I am not sure what the procedure is for Windows OS)

That’s it.

All of the buttons and knobs can be mapped and automated using Live’s MIDI learn function.
There is one issue that I have not been able to figure out.....you have to click on a button or switch twice for the setting to be made on the Juno hardware (first click changes on the M4L GUI, second click changes on the Juno). This is my first M4L patch so if you know what the issue is with this please let me know.

I hope this patch is useful for you Juno-106 owners. It sure is for me.

Enjoy!

Neil

this is exellent! thx very much!

[zalo]

dont know if this is going to help with the double clicking issue but the button and switch script could be a little easier

here is an example of the one set up for buttons

i hope that gives you an idea and maybe it will help with the issue, if you still have to click twice maybe adding a pipe to the runtime script to double send every change would work

best of luck

[ikeaboy]

Well done sir.You may have made up my mind on purchasing M4L.....when the money appears

[oddeo]

Zalo...thanks for the tip...I have not had a chance to look at your patch yet but I definitely will as I am sure there is plenty I can learn.

I actually overcame the double click issue by adding a Message "bang" on the far left side of the patch, ran a chord from all the buttons and patched the bang message to the sxformat object. I probably could have rearranged things on the screen but, this did the trick so I left it.

I am sure there are much more efficient ways of building this patch. It was my first so getting it done was more important than making things pretty under the hood. It is amazing how much I learn every time I work on a patch. I am working on a highly complex patch for the Korg M3 right now and wow....MAX blows my mind.
