Behringer CMD Series

[KingCast]

knobs for effects will be mapped as

var 'FXSel' 1 ? effect 'backspin' slider 1 : effect 'dsp_distorter' slider 1
var 'FXSel' 1 ? effect 'brake' slider 1 : effect 'flanger' slider 1
var 'FXSel' 1 ? effect 'flangedLoopOut' slider 1 : effect 'dsp_reverb' slider 1
filter

For the knobs I think that part of my map is fine, I'll be trying it out in a few so I i'll find out any way but here is my current knob script.

<map value="KNB_FX1" action="filter" />
<map value="KNB_FX2" action="effect slider 1" />
<map value="KNB_FX3" action="effect slider 2" />
<map value="KNB_FX4" action="effect select" />

So knob 1 is a dedicated filter knob, knobs 2 and 3 control the parameters of any of the effects being engaged and knob 4 is effect select so I can use more than 6 effects if I need to. Let me know what you think.

[synthet1c]

that will work fine. If you want to do something more indepth let me know.

[KingCast]

Ok this is the latest everything except for one led is working perfectly. The 4th fx led still toggles on and off when any of the other effects are engaged. Other than that this is beautiful, thank you sooo much for the help, I still have a long way to go before i really understand the vdj language but I love all the options.

I figured as much. Being able to turn them completely off would be nice though.

I believe I can do this with my LC1. What controller are you talking about at the moment?

[nem0nic]

Could this be expected as a firmware update any time in future?

I understand the desire to have 2 different indicator colors, but I don't expect a firmware update until the beginning of 2014 at the earliest (unless we see a problem that needs to be addressed at that level). At that point, I have a list of "upgradey-type" things that I want to change, and a "dark" state is one of them. It would be implemented similarly to the LC-1 dark state, where 7F is the "OFF" command, and the existing messaging remains intact.

I'm assuming you mean 7F in hex (Meaning, send 127 from Traktor = Off)?

Edit: I'm ok with waiting 'till early 2014. For now I've set the loop hotcues to blink.

I find the fact that lost cost modular controllers potentially will be getting firmware upgrades *incredibly* exciting.

Thanks for letting us know

Looking forwards to this.

Ok side bar I was renaming my map in the xml description and now VDJ doesn't recognize my map any more. I can always start from scratch but just so I don't make the same mistake twice, what happened?

Never mind I had a script error, proceed with the tar and feathering.

I have plenty in my pocket regarding CMD.
