mapping multiple banks for remix decks on livid base
I’m trying to map out my livid base to traktors remix decks. I would like to use the small 8 buttons on the right side of the controller to shuffle through different pages of controls for example i would like to hit button 1 and have it toggle on and let me control the clip launching and then hit button 2 and have that toggle on and enable a whole new page of controls like all the transport controls. I would also like all the touch faders to change pages too.
Ive been searching the web but haunt found anything yet any help is appreciated thanks!
You will need to set up toggling modifiers on the 8 buttons then apply the modifier condition to all the commands for that bank.
ex. Button one of the 8 would toggle between 0 and 1
every command you want active when button 1 is on would need to have the modifier condition M1=1
Button two of the 8 would toggle between 0 and 2
every command you want active when button 2 is on would need to have the modifier condition M1=2
Because there are only 7 modifier states you will need to use another modifier on the 8th button
There are 7 modifiers with 7 conditions. You can use one modifier’s conditions for buttons 1-7 then for the last button you would need to use a different modifier.
Ex. buttons 1-7 would use Modifier 1 (conditions 0-1, 0-2, 0-3, 0-4, 0-5, 0-6, 0-7)
Button 8 would use Modifier 2 (conditions 0-1)
Note that BASE has 7 internal banks. You can set them so you wouldn’t need to think about the modifier conditions for each bank - however, the eight button can be your modifier based shift button.
So you’re setting your mapping device to ‘All Ports’? create a mapping device for each peace of the mapping and address to correct controller to prevent any conflicts.
thanks i overlooked that! unfortunately i tried to set it up with the 7 internal banks but in doing so when i want to use it wit ableton it doesn’t run the midi script for live looks like my only option is setting up modifiers this might take some time..
I don’t have my BASE at me right now to check if Livid made any tweaks to the editor but yes, the online editor software would be necessary for making those changes.
i would rather just take the extra time and map the modifiers than have to open the editor every time i want to switch software thanks tho. I have managed to map the modifiers 1-8 but it only changes to the modifier when i keep my finger on the button. Any idea on how to make each modifier button toggle on and how to disable the previous modifier?
As per my previous posts you can have 8 different “banks” using one modifier and it’s conditions where each button toggles between 0-1, 0-2, etc. so when the modifier = 0,1,2 etc a different “bank” is active.
What I think you really want is to map the 8 buttons so that when you press one the “bank” is instantly active not toggling between “bank 0” and “bank 1,2,etc”. To do this you could just map button one to Modifier direct =0, button two to Modifier direct =1, etc which is a bit easier, but mapping the LEDs may require 8 different commands/each just to tell them when to be on or off.
OK cool - just go for what’s best for you. The function buttons in the base controller has a two LED’s for each button, you can assign the first LED simply by pressing on the button but the secondary LED needs to be manually assigned. If you still haven’t already figure it out the midi notes goes from D1 to A1.
I made a quick modifier setup to help you understand the output configuration. This is built off my existing MIDI diagram so please test and let me know how it works.
sorry been busy with work and all I’ve managed to use your modifier tsi stewe and it works great!
I’ve managed to map out all the remix cell for decks c and d but I’m now having problems mapping out led feedback to them i would like to have the cells light up when a sample is loaded and then have then light up green when i trigger the samples.
That’s great! To make proper LED color for each state you’ll need a modifier condition (Remix Cell State). If you pass me the .tsi I can make a quick edit and demo one cell to help you started with that.
Yup, got it. The problem seemed to be with a pad - you currently have midi passing trough CC so traktor can’t even see the note on and note off assignments. Go to Livid online editor software hit any pad and disable CC i the Inspector section on the screen right, then press “Group” button to add this setting to all pads in one action.
Once you’re finished with that try re-mapping them to note and see what happens. I’ll also look into edit this to display all four states of a remix cell.
