And since I'm starting with a clean slate, I'll have to manually convert all of the FX and instruments I want to control in this way. The mappings appear in the ACT tab of AZ Controller, but they are not "connected" to the M32 knobs because they are associated with the ACT rotors, not the ACT sliders, and it's the ACT sliders that are associated with the M32 knobs. Thanks so much for the wealth of information. all that sounds like lengthy and complicated, but in practice using any of these methods is simple and quick (once you have mapped the first plug-in and understood the procedure). Some synths allow "MIDI learn" what is not possible "ACT Learn" (and not KK map). Note 3: for instruments/guitar effects you may prefer to use MIDI control. Also there are NKS presets/mappings for many instruments in the Internet. Advantages: you can have different mappings for each preset, the mapping is nicely displayed in KK. Note 2: instruments you can map in KK and then use KK mode to control. Note 1: if you don't see parameter you want in ACTFix, the parameter is most probably "not controllable". Your old mappings will be broken, your new mappings will not be saved, etc. When corrupted, Cakewalk can't use these files but it does not report that. If ACTFix report "corruption", restore from backup. Here you can reset/rearrange/etc the mapping.Īfter learning some plug-ins using 1-2, I strongly recommend close Cakewalk, open ACTFix and just "Save" to make a backup. Switch to "AZ Controller" mapping (combo-box on top). It can be you can't ACT learn (also happens with Cakewalk plug-ins), or your current mapping is a mess and you want start from scratch, you want re-arrange mapping, etc.
This way you see current mapping, so "strategical planning" is simpler. You can use the procedure of (1) but "pressing" buttons in the "Faders" column instead of touching M32 knobs (remember you have 4 banks, so 32 faders in total). Focus plug-in in question, you should see current mapping. Open AZ Controller UI, switch to ACT Tab. If not, parameters you wanted are not "learnable" (see method (3)) Modify some plug-in parameters in sequence (using mouse), then turn M32 knobs (in ACT mode) in the same sequence. You press ACT Learn button "A L" (if you are learning FX it is right there, if you are learning PC Module use one on ACT top bar module). That is why I write partially.īy default when there is no mapping (after deleting all XMLs) everything is mapped to "ACT knobs".
With this preset M32 controls so called "ACT faders" only, delivered mappings are primary for 8+8+8 Faders/Knobs/Buttons. It can be some of them was partially usable. In pre-installed XMLs there was "some" mappings.
