You can assign the same control to two things.

Post by timothyallan » Wed Jan 04, 2006 11:36 am

In 5.0.3 I am able to assign the same midi controller value to the session cursor scroll control, and say, Send A on track one. Now when I turn the knob, Send A moves, and the scenes scroll as well :)

Sure would be handy if we could do this for all controls ;)

If it's a bug, can we keep it?

It only works with the session scroll control and something else. I can't do it for any other control combination :(

EDIT: You have to first assign the scroll control and THEN assign your next control, it doesn't work the other way around.

It's suuuuch a tease. Now that I know it can be done internally without using fancy midi yoke trickery :)

Sigh.

Can we call it the "Timothy Teaser" bug?

I would like to see more of this bug!

can we also have an "advanced controller routing" page while you are making mistakes like this.

oh love this bug , imagine an even worse bug : assigning one controller to more than one parameter with the extra option of
- defining a minimum & maximum value for each parameter
- making this value cumulative so many controllers can control the same parameter too
- and add definable slope / curve for every parameter/value assignment

good suggestion!
would be very useful to have this bug implemented as a permanent feature.
