Hi. I've recently purchased a Keylab Essentials 49 MIDI controller to use with Cakewalk and I am having great trouble trying to configure any control surface I set up.
I have come across AZSlow and downloaded it and at first glance seems to provide enough options to be able to configure anything, but I am running across the same issue that I find with alternative solutions in that I can either have the faders and rotaries interfacing, or the transport controls, but not both.
The issue is that when you install the Keylab software it installs 2 MIDI devices, one for note information and one for control info. This means that with AZSlow I can either have the transport controls working or the faders etc but not both.
Is there any way around this?
For clarity I have attached the MIDIOX output... (Sorry about first file being too big - can't see how to remove it)
Keylab is a flexible controller. Probably you can configure it such way that it sends transport and knobs/faders throw MIDI 2 port. My guess it should be the case for "MCU compatible" mode.
But if for some reason you want use 2 ports in parallel, AZ Controller supports that. You will need to use "Cooperation mode" (https://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,10.0.html), for convenience better with "Extra instances" (https://www.azslow.com/index.php/topic,384.0.html). AZ Controller instance with "Master" option set will see both ports, own and "Slave". And so you can configure it normally (f.e. with "Startup" preset).
Many thanks for the quick reply - I'll try both suggestions and report back for others in the same situation.
Thanks - Keylab does not allow you to change the controller channel, but the Master/Slave option works fine!
It has raised a couple of questions though but I will raise a new topic rather than divert this one.
Thanks again.
