AZSlow

Good afternoon, is it possible to provide the program code?

Thank you Alexey, I'll give it a go.

I have just checked with up to date Windows 11 and (currently) Defender reports no problems. But that flips periodically.

The installer is not signed (that it expensive), NSIS based and the program is compiled by GCC (on Linux).
"Antiviruses" tend to use all that factors to claim they have "AI" which detects not yet known viruses...
In practice, they just continuously report false positives. I am tired by that at work (we have centralized anti-virus monitoring which reports false positives in PDFs and even some text files, several times per day).

I hope one day EU will introduce regulation to forbid such behavior (essentially that is false accusation in attempt to distribute malware). Till then, programmers have no change to do anything (most interesting cases was false detections in commercial software security updates... even in these cases it took days to white-list...).

No, wing is a different device. We had XAir and X32, also there is x32 emulator. Even in such conditions creating working core and usable presets is not easy. I don't have Wing and I don't know emulator for Wing.

These controllers are not "hardware MIDI" controllers. They communicate throw NI software, which in turn represents itself as MIDI devices.
NI has so called "DAW integration mode" which this preset (and official DAW integrations) use. Till it is activated, NI represents the device as a "simple MIDI controller".
Note there is MIDI mode switch, to control synths directly and with different (configurable in Kontrol) messages. "DAW controlling" MIDI communication is fixed.
All possible messages and the set of LEDs which a DAW can get/set is listed in the first post (can be outdated, the information is 5+ years old). NI Machine can use more (not a surprise...).

AZ Controller is sufficiently flexible to react differently on different values for the same CC. So there was no problem to configure 4D.

"Tap tempo" preset is a fancy workaround, effectively it is a "computer keyboard macro" which is working with corresponding Cakewalk dialog.
As any other preset, it can be "merged" into KK preset. But sorry, there is no easy way to "copy/paste" between presets. It will have to be reproduced manually (so created new control and TapState Software Set and re-creating all corresponding Actions in it, including Feedback for the Timer).
"Export text preset" is a good way to have the reference, or another AZ Controller instance (not Cakewalk can mess with presets, better use AZCInstances and transfer preset throw "Export/Import binary preset" in case you want more then one AZ Controller).

Hello Alexey,  Thank you for doing all of this. I think it's time to get you another coffee! or flowers (for the Wife Of coarse) sorry I don't remember.

I have a Komplete Kontrol s88 MKII.  I had the MKI prior and I had it setup just the way I wanted.  With the MkII they replaced the RWD and FFW with METRO AND TEMPO That would be no problem but the buttons are not recognized so I can't assign them.  I tested this M32 preset just to see what you did and to my surprise a lot more buttons are exposed and function on my s88 MKII Including the actual shift, undo, redo, 4D press, etc.  none of this was exposed before.  However, I had already setup the 4D rotor with functions I like, and I can not change currently with this preset because the CC messages previously were separate for Left, Right, Up, Down, Rotate Left, Rotate Right, and press was not exposed.  Now with this preset Left right uses same CC with 1 or 127 same with up down, same with rotate. 

My question is,  1st of all,  how did you get the other buttons to be exposed? and 2nd, Is there any way I can change the CC values myself, I looked at all the documentation until my eyes closed and I could not find a way.

Lastly I tested out the tap tempo preset and it is brilliant but I saw no way to incorporated it into my existing preset.  So I brought the Alphatrack back out and set a touch control for the tapping and it worked flawlessly, the only problem is My Alphatrack has been the source of many crashes and unexplained slowdowns etc. I have to retire it for good this time.  Is it possible to assign a button like "quantize" on Komplete kontrol to the same tap tempo function from the preset.  It seems like it will be a lot of work if it's even possible to keep everything else in tact.

Can you let me know if any of this is possible?

Thank You

Edit:  I did a little more digging and I believe the two different ways that the controller sends the messages is why there are two different ways that CC's are being sent. so I'll live with the one that suit's my needs but I am still curious if I could get the tap tempo assigned to a pad of my choosing.

Trying to download the azcontrol software installer and it is blocked saying it has a virus.

Good day, could you please tell me if there is a configuration file under the Behringer wing?

Thanks Alexey.

I will go ahead and implement this scheme in the full system.

By the way, I have been working to eliminate the use of MIDI-OX and loopMIDI in my system.
I used these two utilities to provide a flexible way to route, merge and distribute the various MIDI streams my system requires.

You may remember that I use a number of additional GUI based buttons ('Chameleon' app) to switch a number of core functions in my mixer and tape machines (e.g. I have a RECORD mode and a REPLAY mode).  These buttons sit on top of the Sonar GUI.

So I have increased the number of AZ Controller instances from two to six. (previously I had a RECORD instance and a REPLAY instance).  The additional instances allow me to read and set the additional GUI based buttons via AZ Controller.

The new method works really well and has also allowed me to reduce the number of hardware MIDI ports to just two pairs (between the PC and my PICs).
The system response time has improved as has the reliability.

My final upgrade, in planning, is to replace the six old MOTU ultralite audio interfaces (Firewire based which Windows 11 struggles to support) with three MOTU 16A audio interfaces (Thunderbolt). 

We shall see!

Best regards
Robert

Hi Robert,

It looks good. You are right, I forgot to remind about priorities. But that is usual for any monitoring, if you want something happens in predictable sequence, you need correct relative priorities.

Alexey.
