Hello Alexey,
Here are some observations, results and thoughts from your recent update:
loop and stop were on at start up
a) no lights in upper button row after pressing layer A button a couple times
b) loop, stop, play all work as should and corresponding lights do too
c) press stop for long time, RTZ, timing seems ok
d) shift and control work with lights accordingly
e) encoder 1 and 2 control track when layer A not lit, send when lit, action feels ok, may need slight adjustment (see below) but no leds light up at all
f) shift button works for fine resolution of encoders, track-volume res is good (coarse could be finer?), track-pan fine-res may be a bit too fine-it takes 4 clicks on encoder to get it to move 1%
Send-level res and Send-pan res may be just a bit too fine also and coarse just a bit finer
g) pushing encoder and turning works, note value on push jumps to 127, then cc value changes when turned, value goes to 1 when turned right and 65 when turned left
answers to questions
1.a+b) I like the idea of more mode switches as long as we can find a way to set punch in and loop, I agree, mode switches that light to indicate use is good idea
2. a) yes I would like a strip mode, with joggers make sense, also made input gain control in there somewhere and buttons for solo, mute, arm, input echo etc.etc.
b) send mode with modifier(i.e Ctrl) as a strip submode also sounds good---is there a way to "loop" thru sends? like, cycle from Send1 to Send2 to Send3 and if there
isn't a 4th it would jump bsck to 1? just throwing an idea out there
c) loop/punch mode would be great
d) multi strip mode also great idea if possible with the functions you mentioned, default doesn't really matter to me but maybe solo would work better
e) Plugin Dynamic mapping!! Not even sure how you can make that work but it sounds awesome.
f) some keyboard function would be good, I don't do many non-midi program changes (main instrumnet is guitar), so I play thru amp sim (TH3, Amplitube4), save and undo,
multi dock (D), inspector (I), and browser (B) are some of the main ones I use
3."Stop -> Undo -> Record again" sounds like a great feature to have, I use "comping" mode a lot
You didn't mention Zoom and fit all tracks, are those things we can add in?
The way I do stuff for myself is start with EZ or Superior drummer, guitar or bass and maybe EZ Keys, I'll comp and write, gets sounds I want, and then mix.
I think what you've descibed will work out well.
Actually, it far surpasses what I even thought was capable of doing! I don't have much experience with control surfaces (only seen them in videos and ads) and have never
had a MAckie or any large control surface to use so I'm not real sure of what they really are capable of. This is all "icing on the cake" (or Cakewalk if you will
) for me plus I get to learn some
new things. Thank you again for your time and effort!
I've also attached a screen shot of the Behringer edit software in case you need any info from there, meant to do that last time but forgot
