Hello, I have axiom pro 49, is there a way for me to midi map all the buttons on it to bitwig, the transport buttons, drum pads, knobs, mute, solo for channels etc...? I downloaded some axiom pro controller script but it does nothing but let me play the keys. Thank you Igor |
I might have something for you! (and anyone who stumbled into this thread) I created a simple Bitwig Controller Script for my Axiom Pro 61, that lets it be used as a normal generic midi controller, but also gives functionality to the Axiom's transport buttons. Credits to "teetrinkers" who created the Bitwig Script for the Axiom 25, which I referenced.
Change all occurances of "Axiom Pro 61" to "Axiom Pro 49", and I think you'll be golden! This script should give everyone (not just Axiom owners) a solid base to start creating their own controller scripts =D
I've added some comments to make it somewhat more understandable. To install this script (or any, really) in BitWig
If you want to learn more about scripting, or your script/device does not get recognized, then in BitWig goto Help -> Control Surface Scripting Guide, and read it. =] Cheers answered Dec 31 '15 at 01:10 by wygonjinn (221) edited Dec 31 '15 at 19:02 |
I switched to REAPER. As a programmer, REAPER is perfect for me, because no other daw comes close to the amount of features REAPER has (and I'm fluent in 5+ DAWS) -- and the customization REAPER supports is astounding. The sky is the limit w/ REAPER. And I didn't wanna pay for the upgrade to BWS 2.0 -- and BWS 2.0 didnt support Sysex, whereas REAPER does. Also there were some bugs in BitWig, like Kontakt instruments randomly stopped working, and loud clicks happened from the External Audio Effect or Instrument or something completely randomly I think And to top it off, I have a ton of hardware effects and synthesizers, and BitWig at the time didnt support synchronize everything together nicely......midi clock, latency compensation, etc. Whereas REAPER has this nice "Ping Device" feature, where it will send a click to an External Effect, or a MIDI note to an External Instrument, and then calculate the round trip delay in samples it took to get back into the computer, and offset the track by that much -- so all the tracks were aligned properly with all the external devices latency accounted for answered Sep 26 '18 at 21:34 by wygonjinn (221) edited Sep 26 '18 at 21:35 |
IM not a musician but I think a lot of the things you mentioned have now been sorted out in BWS Maybe you'll come back one day, its a shame when talented people like yourself leave For me its just a hobby, I fell in love with the sound of synthesisers way back when ELP and YES and tangerdream and Kraftwerk were all the rage I could never afford a mini moog back then, but now with the Arturia synths and the beatstep pro I have them all and with my musical knowledge of just about knowing where middle c is, I have a lot of fun making old berlin school kinda stuff, then dragging the tracks in to the clip launcher and using the launch pad pro to fire them off. I doubt very much I will ever need or use all the new features of BWS But for an absolute novice, I have found it very easy to use my only complaint is that at the moment all the new flashy controllers out of the box work with abelton live and you have to wait for people like you to write the scripts to use them with BWS sorry to have bored you with my life history, but im a UK expat that moved to Spain and I don't get out much LOL thanks for your work on the axiom script cheers Kevin answered Sep 26 '18 at 21:48 by turbo_kev (69) |
That's awesome haha! You didn't bore me :) BitWig is much better than REAPER for just jamming out on the fly with your launchpad too, so It seems to suit you well! p.s. As a hacky workaround fix for the crashes you can comment out the code by adding two forward slashes //
