Midi Learn - FM8 Pattern Editor - on Photon X25 how?!

Post by derders » Sat Aug 25, 2007 7:11 pm

Hello to all,

I love the FM8 Arpeggiator

I want to assign a knob on my Photon X 25 in Live that can switch the Pattern Editor Length but I dont know how.

Is there someone who can help me - and others who want that?

I know that it must be possible, jet I can do it with the mouse wheel but I want it on my midi-keyboard

it is very cool to switch with the length to make a cool step sound

but I am soo noob to assign midi cc


so pls help me


when I click "midi Learn" and go to the Pattern Editor the length is marked with a red border -- but when I turn on my knob on photon x25 there is nothing

can I solve my wish/problem or is it impossible?

Had that same thing with FM8, it doesn't seem to like remote control and is probably down to FM8 configuration or maybe even a flaw in the VSTi itself, there are probably other ways (this way doesn't support parameter feedback for instance) but this is how I got around that problem:

MIDI track on the right is the one I have containing FM8, the one on the left routes MIDI controller data from my BCR2000 to the one on the right, automation doesn't work this way either - instead you'd have to record a MIDI clip containing the controller data into the left-hand track and edit it if needed from the envelope editor window - hope this isn't confusing you further!
It does work eventually so stick with it.
