KeyLab 49-88 with Cubase. Transport buttons Tips
« on: January 24, 2016, 07:09:31 pm »
 :) My first topic, please dont kick me too hard!

The transport buttons on your KL will not work with non-Pro Cubase versions (might be usefull for other DAWs). So we can use Pads! I have managed a settings that include next functions: Fast rewind, Fast forward, Pause/Stop, Play, Slow rewind, Slow forward and Rec.

They are working well except they need to be pressed a bit hard due to KL Pad's feature.

Using Arturia's MIDI Control Center reconfigure Pad's settings like this:

   For Pad1 to Pad7:
Mode - Control
Channel - 1
CC Number - from 36 to 42 (1 number per Pad)
Min Value - 0
Max value - 3

-Than open Cubase (I have Cubase 8 Artist and KeyLab61), start your project, go to inset Devices - Device Setup.
-Next in Devices window click on Generic Remote (create it if needed). In Generic remote settings set your KL in MIDI Input tab.
-Clear window below by clicking a row and Delete button to the right. (Optional)
-Than create 7 rows which will look like this:

   Control Name      MIDI Status      MIDI Channel      Address      Max. Value     Flags
FastRewind            Controller         1                        36               3                     R, , ,
FastForward           Controller         1                        37               3                     R, , ,
PauseStop              Controller         1                        38               3                     R, , ,
Play                        Controller         1                        39               3                     R, , ,
SlowRewind           Controller         1                        40               3                     R, , ,
FastRewind            Controller         1                        41               3                     R, , ,
Rec                         Controller         1                        42               3                     R, , ,

-Than edit the window below to match this:

   Control Name      Device      Channel/Category      Value/Action      Flags
FastRewind            Transport   Device                       fastRewind          , ,
FastForwad            Transport   Device                       fastForward         , ,
PauseStop              Transport   Device                       stop                    , ,
Play                        Transport   Device                       start                    , ,
SlowRewind           Transport    Device                       shuttleBw 1x       , ,
SlowForward           Transport   Device                       shuttleFw 1x        , ,
Rec                         Transport   Device                       record                  ,T,

As resault you will have your Pad1 to Fast Rewind, Pad2 as Fast Forward, Pad3 as PauseStop, Pad4 as Play, Pad5 as SlowRewind, Pad6 as SlowForward, Pad7 as Rec.

Im done. You may now kick me.  :)
