DIY FX Preset Buttons?

DIY FX Preset Buttons?

Just wondering, I know there are multiple tutorials here on how to build super faders/knobs but how can you make the four diy fx preset buttons that are on the new MF Pro? Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated!

what software?

just map any button (midi controller or keyboard) to select effects on a certain bank.

/edit: reread the question. you mean building four more buttons to your MF?
if so: solder buttons (arcade or whatever) to the connections on the top left side of the MFs pcb. i think you have to activate them in the menu mode. not sure about that.

I kinda reading it as how do you create your own fx presets to assign to the new midifighter preset buttons rather than just use the stock ones.

That’s exactly what I was wondering! Do you know how?

Well we’ve never seen the new midifighter mappings (I think) so I don’t know how they work. I assume that the buttons just set certain effects slots to certain effects so it’s a matter of changing the effect being directly selected to whatever you had in mind. Easy enough.

oh. .so i didnt really get the question :stuck_out_tongue:

like mrpopinjay said, it’s only a matter of changing the “effect select” commands in the controller manager, to whatever fx combo you want.

@MrPopinjay: there are two MFpro mappings in the MF section.

Ya I was aiming for creating an extension to my midi fighter with one rotary potentiometer and two faders, like the beat masher, and I was wondering if i could add on the fx preset buttons as well.

So I guess I am asking a questions that involves both of your guy’s original responses.

You can the midifighter has 4 digital inputs (buttons) and 4 analog (knobs faders) inputs. You can get the little rubber buttons that they used from spark fun, sorry can’t post the link though I’m on my phone .

Thanks so much! Do you guys know of a tutorial on how to assemble the buttons and button pad with led’s because I am new to this whole soldering thing.

thanks bro

about a tutorial no but if you go onto the livid instruments site i think they have something to go along with there midi brain kit. they use these or similar buttons.
