Quick APC40 question

Post by Trackselecta » Mon Apr 16, 2012 7:32 pm

Hi all this is my first post of many hopefully, anyhow Im having a problem with my apc40 with some of the knobs. I have set the pan knobs to control an EQ but the problem is that when i press one of the send buttons and then go back to the pan the knobs have reset themselves back to 0 and i was just wondering if anyone knows how to get around this

cheers!

Try remapping, The pans to your selected midi maps on the EQ you use. Then Bank D to pans. This is only speculations on my part, but i suspect it will work. I don't use the pans at all but i do have the pan bank, Sends A,B,C, Mapped to EQs and this never happens to me.

Has anybody figured out a (preferably non-MAx4live) workaround for this problem?
I own max4live but am trying to keep my livesets as cpu light as possible and the Pan Knob Bank resetting every time I switch to any send bank is beyond frustrating.

No sorry.... Bomes is another option.... you use it to store the previous setting and recall it when reselected....
