I am using Mackie Control to have my korg nanoKONTROL2 controller to work. I learn that from this thread.
I read in the doc that I can customize the control surface with mackie control, but I am stuck because I can’t find the right midi map to customize. I have a Korg_nanoKONTROL2.map but in the case of Mackie control, it appears it is not the right one being used.
My question is: How and what should I modify to change the behavior of a button of my nanoKONTROL2 MIDI controller?
Not sure rn if there are simple map files for the MC protocol devices, but from what I remember, MC is just a custom combination of 14bit and sysex commands.
This chapter describes how to modify controller to action mappings:
Edit: for the buttons, you can just go to the Funktion keys tab in the control protocol settings
Preferences > control surfaces > enable mackie > show protocol settings > Function Keys
The last column has no heading on my system. Don’t let it fool you, just click on it and it will reveal a dropdown for action selection (what a rhyme )
For anything continuous, you would have to set up generic midi device
Mackie Control is it’s own thing. There are no binding maps. The customization referred to in the manual only is in the dialog for Mackie control, accessed by dbl-clicking “Mackie” in Edit > Preferences > Control Surfaces and it looks like this:
Having said that, there should be almost no reason to ever do this, except for weird devices that use Mackie Control Protocol but really don’t have any controls that are labelled for any sensible purpose. The whole point of Mackie Control is that every control has a name and an implied purpose.
Thanks for your answers. I just wanted to change the [<<] button of the nanoKONTROL2 from Rewind to Go to start. Thanks to your feedback, I managed to change it this way:
