I am trying to trigger Cue clips via MIDI, but it doesn’t seem to be working for me.
According to the manual here:
It seems like it should be straightforward:
Ardour allows assigning arbitrary keys on MIDI controllers to trigger cue slots:
- Right-click on the trigger slot of interest
- Choose MIDI Learn in the newly opened window
- Press a key on your MIDI controller
However, after completing the above steps, the clip doesn’t trigger.
I have also tried:
- Add MIDI port to Cue track
- Assign in routing grid Hardware MIDI to Cue track input
- Enable Monitor Input on Cue track
- MIDI tracer on HW port: MIDI events scroll as expected
- MIDI tracer on Cue track: MIDI events scroll as expected
Then I found in the routing grid that there is a Cue Control in under Ardour Misc tab
- Undo all of above
- Assign in routing grid Hardware MIDI to Cue Control in
Same behavior, it just doesn’t seem to work.
Am I doing something wrong?
