OK, I have searched high and low through the forum today and i can not figure this out..
Using the UC33e in Control Surface mode, i can access the eight given parameters of bank 1, however i can not access any further banks to control the further parameters of the device. I am able to do this with a remote zero sl by using the bank browse on the controller, however the uc33e does not seem to have this browser buttons and seems that it can not be scripted via instant mappings/control surface script - from the .txt file - " You can neither add functions nor can you change the banks of device parameters."
Is there not even a way to navigate through banks using the mouse/keyboard?
Many Thanks guys,
UC33e Control Surface - Changing Banks
Re: UC33e Control Surface - Changing Banks and Remote Scripts
Ok i've figured it out a way to make it work. I'm just using the top row of pots for the bank of parameters and using the scroll buttons to scroll the banks....
Set the UC33e to run on preset 5 - press recall and number 5 and make sure your global midi channel is 01 on the unit.
Create a directory called My UC33e here:
C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Ableton\Live 8.2.1\Preferences\User Remote Scripts\My UC33e
and put in this in your UserConfiguration.txt doc which should be in the directory
