Mapping Twister To Pro Tools Plugins

[Mike Caffrey]

Is it possible to map a MIDI Fighter Twister to plugins in ProTools?

I realize it should be possible in theory, but I'd really like to find someone who's actually succeeded in doing it in ProTools 12.

It took a while to figure it out, but the answer is to use an app called Controllermate to map cursor locations and use control wheel data. It works well and it took a while, but I figured out how to control faders with Controllermate too.

It's possible using our Mulligan application!

Mulligan works with any MIDI controller, but the Twister is my favorite controller to use with it. Twister has the smoothest knob action of any of the controllers I test with, and the fact that you can color-code the knobs on Twister makes for a degree of customization that I don't get elsewhere.

Ask me anything if you're curious about it. I'm about to publish a starter template for using Mulligan with Twister – I'll see if I can post a graphic of that template here.

OK, that starter template I mentioned before is out now. The Twister Starter Pack makes it easy to jump in with using your favorite MIDI controller with Pro Tools, using our Mulligan app.

Pro Tools is one of those applications that doesn't support faders with LED feedback by default. Can you verify that Mulligan fixes the issue wit sending midi data back to Twister's ring indicators?
