anybody got any experience of altering this template to work with a mpd 24, or other controllers.

very impressed with the u tube video but been having a go of the trigger finger - and not so keen.

what I'm working with right now for my live sets - is an sp808 , the faders come in handy(send midi), & a X-session,

So I have the knobs and the faders, pads I'm lacking...

Nice werk mate.

If you did a video with the Akai MPD24 you would get a lot sales.

BTW how many templates have you sold ?

Cheers

does anyone have a copy of this modded for an MPD24?
midi seems like another language to me, and not owning a trigger finger, im between a rock and a hard place =(
would love to get this cracking for the weekend!
cheers

ps: binary b - no more videos for now. i'm selling lots of templates so i'm not really concerned. i'm working on a dvd based program right now, as well as studio templates, and a rack pack to sell. i also have an album to promote and two to finish so my hands are full at the moment...

It's not hard to set up another control device to use the template. The template has all the midi mapping done for you - so all you have to do is note which midi note/message does what, and edit the preset in your MPD24 to send the same note/message.

I think the template comes with an Enigma Template, too. So you can download Enigma (from M-Audio) and find out what all the pads/faders/knobs on the Trigger Finger send - then set up your MPD24 to send the same notes/messages.

I really like the loom of the MPD24 - how are you getting on with it?

Yeah the Mpd is pretty dope. Excellent build quality.

But i am really getting into my Novation 25SL now and its making the mpd feel neglected... but she is a hot bitch and can find another man easily.

So i am getting on down with my multi-nippled knobbed-out baby now.
Its a shame the continuous controllers on the mpd arent on the novation.
I would marry her then.

Sounds good - you should be able to edit the presets on the 25SL in the same way. You should check out the novation website. I don't know if there is editor software for the SL series, but I wouldn't be surprised if there is.
