Title: BSP control mode with BitWig Studio
Post by: turbo_kev on August 06, 2015, 11:56:18 pm

Hi  I have the Knobs and buttons in  BSP set up correctly in MCC

when I use MiniV in stand alone mode with the BSP all the knobs and buttons work in control mode
I have assigned most controls of the miniV

but when I use the miniV as a vst in BitWig  the BSP works fine in sequence mode
but none of the knobs or buttons work in control mode


Can anybody shed any light on what I might be doing wrong

cheers
Kev

Hi turbo_kev,
I've tried with Windows 7 64bits and Bitwig 1.1.10 and everything works. I've set my control mode knobs to send cc trough the USB port in the MIDI Control Center. The BSP appears as a generic MIDI keyboard in Bitwig's preferences. Then right click on the bitwig knob you want to control (Glide, Volume, SpeDelR...) but not those on the Mini V GUI and choose ,,Learn Controller Assignment'', move your knob and have fun.

Thanks for the reply

but that's want I want to be able to control via the BSP
I know it works on the BitWig studio stuff

but why cant I midi learn the controls on the Miniv v ?

it works perfectly if I use my old BS   but not on the BSP ?

cheers

Hi kev do you have the control set to the correct midi channel . if mini v is on seq 2 press chan button and the red flashing light may be on a different channel 
just press channel 2 /step 2 to move it.

Hola Mr T

nope the BSP sequence is on midi chan 1 (green led on 1 )
and control chan is midi 1  ( red led on 1 )

I have the correct settings in MCC. because it works in stand alone with no DAW
I can control pitch and transpose perfectly in BitWig   but not control mode
I select midi learn in the Mini V  and turn a knob or press a button and I get nothing
but if I select midi learn on any of the Bitwig studio stuff ( faders knobs etc etc )  they all work
so I know the BSP is outputting correctly   it just wont work with the Mini V ????

Strange thing is that my old BS  works in control mode with the Mini V in Bitwig
with no probs


cheers
