deck focus mapping/qquestions!

hey guys, im looking into making my own type of midi fighter mapping for my maschine, but i have concluded that the most organized way of having a ton of effects, is to have like a deck focus row like the midi fighter has, a row of buttons where if i press it, it will show me led status that deck “a” for instance is the focus, and when i de select it the led will turn off. are there any indicators within the software that shows which deck is the focus? any help or advice i could get here would be great :slight_smile: thanks guys

the very short answer is you can’t easily without extra software… the slightly longer answer is someone else asked the very same question only about a day or so and we came up with a solution using banks in mashine. the ‘search’ button is your friend :stuck_out_tongue:

okay ill look right now :stuck_out_tongue: any idea how the midi fighter’s mapping seem to have been able to pull this off? i looked into them and couldnt find anything usefull :disappointed:

pull what off? the changing banks/decks or what it actually does? a lot of it is just mapping multiple items to single buttons - like load fx + enable fx + enable fx unit in mixer etc - so you dont need to press much to get a nice result - hence the name i presume :wink:

the 4 banks mode switching is internal to the midifighter - depending on which top row button is pressed last determines what note values the remaining 3 buttons send out…

OHHHH is that how it works? damn that makes sense. crap lol i used the search button but couldnt seem to find it what should i search for?

just searching for maschine worked for me…
