Midi learn to control navigation playhead

#1

Hello, I am trying to bind a MIDI potentiometer to the play head scroll. Here is what I tried in the midi map file:

<Binding channel="1" ctl="43" function="editor-scroll-backward"/>

However, it doesn’t work and I can’t find any example of such a function anywhere on the MIDI maps GitHub folder. What do I do wrong?

You can’t do this.

Controlling the playhead is much harder than that. The best you may be able to do is to use the nudge function, which will move the playhead if nothing is selected. There are no functions/actions that move the playhead by some defined amount.

I understand. I thought this post suggested scroll is exposed to MIDI

#4

Scroll is not related to moving the playhead. It changes what is in view in the editor window.
