I’ve been trying out ardour 2.0beta5.1 (it looks awesome so far) but I’ve noticed that there’s no support for MIDI controllers at the moment, i.e. mapping MIDI control surface elements to mixer sliders, etc. Is this going to be included in any beta release of Ardour2 (I’d like to be able to help test the beta versions more), or should I just wait for the final release?
Thanks for all the hard work on an excellent piece of software…
I don’t have a ‘Control Surfaces’ submenu in my Options menu, but I do have a “Use MIDI Control” option which is ticked. I’ve created a line in my ardour.rc which looks like this (plus angle brackets):
and it’s set as the port for MMC, MTC and MIDI Parameter Control. I’ve made sure my control surface port is connected to this port via qjackctl…but nothing’s working, i.e. with ‘Trace input’ on there’s no debugging output in the terminal when I work the control surface’s sliders, and I can’t assign any controls (is it still Ctrl+middle click?)…
