Hello Moss,

I want to fetch the time positions of a Bitwig songs via OSC but when I fetch the /time/str messages, the values contain the pattern positions. It is the same like /beat/str but with colons instead of dots and an higher precision. Do I need to trace anything else if a connected application wants to know that the song is currently at a position of one one minute and 15 seconds for example instead the number of recently played beats?
Do you want to use NI Komplete Kontrol MK2 controllers on Linux? Then check out the qKontrol project.

Thanks, you are right! Will be fixed in the next update.

  • Komplete Kontrol Mk 1
    • Fixed: Modulation wheel did trigger button press of the main encoder
Thanks for the quick fix

@moss Are we going to get User pages on other hardware, like the SLMKIII?
Studio One // Bitwig // Logic Pro X // Ableton 11 // Reason 11 // FLStudio // MPC // Force // Maschine

Some basic information is being displayed but I have to think about a complete redesign.

Uh, SLMkIII already supports user parameters!

See the manual: https://github.com/git-moss/DrivenByMos ... SLMkIII.md

If you like RTFM there is now a DrivenByMoss PDF manual (will also be included in future updates)! Many thanks to Ryan for contributing those nice Launchpad images!

Very nice!

Fantastic documentation, that helps a lot!
Two questions for the Launchpads though, because I don't have a supported one yet:

1) Does the session view follow the (pinnable) cursor track? I have a complex project setup for live looping and would like to have multiple Launchpad instances, each controlling the clips on a specific trackbank. Is it possible to pin it this way?
2) Is there a "select clip" function like Push seems to have? Another great thing for my setup would be to select clips with the pad controller and then have a foot pedal to record into the selected clip.

(Oh and I just looked into Flexi because of the foot pedal idea: it seems that the clip functions need the selected clip/scene to be on the currently selected track in order to work. And the delete function is missing, I think it has been recently added to the API? Would be great to have versions of these functions for the selected clip, independant of the selected track.)

Yes. I do not have 2 identical models, so I could not test that but in therory that should work too.

No.

The Record and New function always look for an empty slot on the selected track.
Yes no delete so far, you could try with Undo.

Hello there, I hope you are doing well!

One question to the APC40 Mk2. Is there a way to get the Device Control knob LEDs behave like APC40 + Ableton or APC40 + send knobs in Bitwig? To get a better view I need more LED lights but there are only one or two at the time.

Maybe with some code editing?

Best

I guess you mean with active LEDs left to the position. The problem with that is that there are a lot of parameters (and there is no criteria to detect them) which are centered and for these it would look wrong.

Will there ever be a Native Instruments Maschine Mikro MkII script?
