controling drum rack with APC 40 & M4L

Post by [email protected] » Fri Dec 11, 2009 12:13 pm

Hi,

I'm looking a way to control my drum rack pad with the APC40 (with a M4L patch for example...)
More precisely, I'd like to create a sepcific mode, which in the APC'pad become a drum pad. like in this exmample : http://fr.440tv.com/video.php/v/2778/Ak ... nalisation

Someone can help me ?

THKS

Yea I've actually been looking for better functionality with drum racks too. I use them constantly and the APC/other midi keyboards aren't great with them. All I want is simple Control Surface-type stuff like bank-able fader control for the drum pad's volumes and sends! Can anyone help me out here with something I'm missing??

I second the nativekontrol aps. awsome and also give you chord and scale functions all at the click of 2 buttons. value for money if you dont understand how to configure that kind of thing (like me) and backed up by great support.
