Crossfade "A" button not reacting to MIDI

Post by tonyschuite »

Hi there,

I am mapping a BCF2000 to control Resolume Arena 4.2.1.
I want to arm the A and B buttons of the crossfader. so far it has been working, however one crucial annoyance is that resolume does map the Buttons, but both seem to be triggering the B button only.

I am probably doing something wrong, but please help!

kind regards
Tony

You probably have the same note that you use for A mapped to B as well, but in a different mapping mode.

Check the Composition Midi map and the Application Midi map in both Deck and Layer focus, and you'll see the double mapping quickly enough.

Nope,

already checked, figured this would be the problem, but that's not it. I started with a clean mapping.
is there a default mapping that i should be aware of?

i checked contextualMidiShortcuts.xml
if I put the shortcut on A, on byte2=91 it has a link to path="/track#9/connect" as well as path="/layer#1/group"
if I remove the shortcut, path="/track#9/connect" stays in the xml file. Even If I remove it from the XML file.
if I add the shortcut to both the A and B buttons, there is no difference between the two lines of code in the XML file except for timeStamp="96388.3574" / "0" and Byte2=91 / 92

I then physically deleted the file, opened resolume, removed all midi mapping for both comp as well as app, created a shortcut for the A button on Layer 1.
Same problem, it always triggers the B button

Are you sending notes from the buttons, or ccs?

Make sure you send notes. Mapping midi ccs to button GUI elements can give unexpected results.
