Is there a keyboard shortcut to change the grid on the drumrack. I have a midi controller that triggers the first 8 cells of drumrack and would like to be able to move the view of the grid without touching my keyboard or mouse (midi style) I'm pretty sure you cant midi map this, but i could make it work with a keyboard shortcut. If not i guess i'll just make an instrument rack with a bunch of 8 cell drumracks and move through them with a chain selector mapped to a macro.

ctrl + 1 (narrow)

ctrl +2 (widen)

ctrl + 3 (triplet grid)

I'm actually talking about the grid on the device itself. when you click on the right of a drumrack, you can scroll though with the arrow keys or , command arrow keys. what i want is a shortcut, or workaround, that scrolls through the cells without having to click on the grid itself.

I don't think there's a dedicated shortcut for it. I wish it was in their api and could be mapped. I think the closest you'll get is if you have the grid selected, you can use the up and down arrows, but it has to stay selected:/

1+ for this to be mappable to keyboard. I just found out my mpk mini does the sa me thing.
