Akai APC40 and TPro (MISA basic setup)

[gregsully]

I've loaded misa's template (thank you) and done a bunch or further customization, but now that I'm ready to give it all a spin I realize that im having issues with all the hotcue buttons with LED lights on causing a stuttering of audio. This appears to only happen when the message to turn on the LED for that button pushed is active. If I turn off the LED output (even for just that particular hotcue) there is no stuttering issue.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I'm running XP SP3

Hey Andrew,

sounds good, any chance you could post a short vidoe demonstrating how your mappings work ?

Cheers.

Shure...
I need more time... this week is moving week...
next week i put some explanation and post here!

also coming more stuff about connecting with pd..

but if u play around u will find out...
the difficult one is the shift keys for walking in the time line and setting up the cues...
the rest is quite ok to find out...

Couple questions.

How can you program a negative value for the controller range? Im having a hard time programming the LED's to have the proper response.

What are the different values needed for flashing, still, red, green?

Thanks,

Jared

could someone please do a video of the apc and traktor please i really wanna see it all together

so if im understanding correctly...the track selection buttons change the midi messages sent out by the lower banks of knobs within the hardware. so you could use these buttons as "scene" buttons so to speak in order to have different groupings of those knobs?

Not sure what you mean by negative value for the controller range. Are you trying to get the LED's to turn off?

The MIDI values for the LED lights are 1,2,3,4,5,6 to change the LEDs from green/blinking green/amber/blinking amber/red/blinking red. I believe this is in respective order, but you should double-check.

Yeah, pressing a track selection button would change the MIDI channel output by the lower bank of 8 knobs and 8 buttons. The Track Selection row of buttons on the APC40 ends up working like hardwired MOD buttons for Traktor.

The lower set of knobs and buttons essentially gives you 9 banks.

8 knobs + 8 buttons x 9 different channels = 72 knobs + 72 buttons
