DrivenByMoss: Bitwig extension for many hardware controllers (version 26.6.1)

[Elkiwixmandalaz]

Hi Again, I just went ahead and try toggling through "NOTES" on Bitwig with the LaunchPad Pro and I am notable to toggle through either "NOTE" or "CHORD". I am currently trying to use the LaunchPad as a key board like I did in the past. I simple grabbed the sampler on Bitwig, and selected "Acoustic Piano". I hope that you can help me out. I also grabbed the latest version of DrivenByMoss and put it on my extensions folder.

Thanks in Advance!

Hello,

New to Bitwig. How do you arm a track and audition notes to sequence them without them being recorded into the clip? I see you doing this in your demonstrations and wish to do the same. Thank you so much!

What is your question?

Arming a track does not record anything until you press record. Also you can enable monitoring without enabling rec arm. See the Bitwig manual.

Hello. Where are the mode settings (lydian, dorian, etc) for the Launchpad in Bitwig 5 running the latest script ?

Hi Jürgen,
not sure if you encounter the same "bug" like me:

When moving the navigation-button of the Komplete Kontrol S49MK2 to navigate through Tracks, the Group Track is like a "border", not letting the navigation through, unless the navigation-button gets double-tapped quickly. Not sure if that's "normal/expected" behavior.
How i encounter this behavior:
- Bitwig 5 Beta 13, and Bitwig5.0, drivenbymoss 20.3.0
- ARRANGE View, Cliplauncher View
- Project has several Tracks, including at least one Group Track
1. i click on a Clip in the Clip Launcher, to focus it (to navigate within the Cliplauncher)
2. then i use the Komplete S49MK2 4-Direction-Button to navigate from a non-grouped Track to the Grouptrack
-> Result: The Grouptrack doesn't get selected. Instead, it's only in focus for a millisecond, then the focus switches back to the non-grouped Track. (="invisible border")
The same invisible border exists when trying to switch from a Track inside a Group to the Grouptrack.

Since i wasn't sure if that was also the case in the past, I checked it with Bitwig 4.4.10 with DrivenByMoss-19.2.2 : there, the navigation-button switches through group-tracks without effort.

Thanks alot for all your work

Hi. I installed DrivenByMoss 20.3.0
Ableton Push 2 does show up in settings but the on/off buton is greyed out and it does not allow to turn it on.
On Push 2 itself I can see only Push logo.
I am on Windows 7, Bitwig 5.0
What can be wrong?
cheers

Hi Moss,

Thank you for your reply. It seems to be as soon as i arm a track and press shift-play to start a new clip as soon as i play anything it records into the piano roll. I do not press record at all. Ill keep messing around with settings. Thank you for your time.

It is in the drop down menu which you find now by clicking the little controller icon in the title bar of the main window.

That's the idea of the "New clip" feature. A new clip is created which is overdubbing its' content.

If it is grayed out, it means that the MIDI and/or USB ports are not set. Can you select them? If not, something is wrong with your hardware connection.

Thank you, is there a way to add a blank clip from the launchpad mk3 which does not have overdub enabled? Thank you so much for patiently answering our questions.

Im sorry for being confusing but all i wish to do is use the step sequencers without my auditioned notes being recorded live. Thanks.

I can reproduce that. Seems to be a regression in Bitwig 5. It seems that slots/clips on a group track cannot be selected and therefore it jumps back to the previous track. I reported it.

Currently, not. You need to disable Overdub first.
