Behringer X-Touch integration

[dsteinschneider]

There is a discussion on this forum about binding rotary encoders that show the VST’s knob position using lights that increment around the knob.

UPDATE:

Behringer BCF2000 (Generic) MIDI Controller Sliders to Object Volumes

Terry, I have an x-touch mini which has similar rotary encoders with LED position indicator. I have the problem where if I adjust the knob, then the LEDs also adjust using “local control”. Like you, I also have a binding that sends the midi value back to the LED lights for that knob. The problem is that the local control and the received midi fight each other, especially if I have any curves applied in C3. Same race conditions problems with lit buttons. Does the BCF2000 have the same issue, or…

Controller Select

Hey Guys, Thanks for this discussion - very useful. This all falls under a bunch of MIDI handling improvements I’m planning. These changes fall into two groups - those that rely on some re-design in the binding framework: Binding “take-over” support Binding Reflection (ability to reflect an internal parameter value back out via MIDI) Binding MIDI to MIDI Binding Relative Encoder support (ie: rotary encoders) Better support for bindings to be processed on the audio thread eg: MIDI to MIDI bi…

Visual Feedback/Display of Controller Status

I’ve just started trialing Cantabile (loving it) and I too need some way of grouping a visual indication of the changing status of various different parameters (across different plugins) in one place on the screen. I’m playing around with a little Behringer X-touch mini and the rotary encoders actually work very well with Cantabile - 2-way communication works really well and the LED rings around the encoders show the current status. But it’s not particularly easy to see what’s going on at a gla…

Also relating to config of rotary encoders:

New Feature: Controller Defaults

This is a pretty advanced topic, but hopefully useful to some… You can now provide a JSON file that describes the default binding behaviour of incoming controllers. This is particularly useful for configuring particular CC’s to always be rotary encoders, buttons etc… See the guide for details. Available now in build 3624.
