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

[Medley]

Thank you for your earlier reply, I’m MPC is hooked up now

I’m hoping to get my PS4 gamepad working as a controller too - it is selected as a game pad and found as a “PS4 controller,” I see many note mappings but when I link my game pad to an instrument track, there is no MIDI activity. I’ve tried to load MIDI modulators and map CCs to no avail.

Please can you help me out? Thanks

I have no PS4 gamepad for testing but it might be that not each and every controller is working with the library I use.

Never mind, I tried a different PS4 controller (they're both official pads) and now it's working, must have just been a hardware issue, just letting others know,

Thanks again

hey moss & friends,
I wanted to ask again because perhaps my question got lost last time or my idea is simply not feasible:

I would like to quickly jump between two (Project- or Track-)parameter-PAGES with a single button press.
(I don't mean temporarily setting individual parameters to a different layer,
but rather temporary PAGE changes.
For example, temporarily from page 1 to page 2 and then automatically back to page 1 when the button is released.)

The following happens when you suggest using layers:
pressing Layer 2, briefly jump to Parameter PAGE 2.
After releasing the button, not returning to PAGE 1.
But rather Page remains on 2. (if it is set via layer)

would be a huge benefit if that were an option.
cheers & kind regards

I am afraid that is not possible with Generic Flexi.

Hi Moss,

Im currently using BW6 B4. Also running Touch OSC on the iPad. Not sure if i read your docs right, have you removed OSC connectivity from the "Generic Flexi" controller in your latest Version of DrivenByMoss??? If so do you have plans to add OSC back in???

Thank you.

OSC has nothing to do with Generic Flexi. It is a separate extension you will find under the manufacturer name "Open Sound Control".

Hi Moss,

Thanks for responding...

So is there a way to get Touch OSC on the ipad working with Bitwig6 using DrivenByMoss V26.x???

Sure. I do not provide a template for it but someone made one (don't have the link read but should be easy to find).

hey hey, is there a way to launch group tracks scenes from open stage control? I couldn't find it in the docs and the standard launch clip doesn't seem to work on the group tracks.

in the image u can see the clip launcher shows grouped tracks with a box around them, it also labeled below on the meter, and none of these buttons launch the scene within the group. I tried scene/@{parent.variables.n}/launch, of course this launches the whole scene

or track/@{parent.variables.n}/scene/@{parent.variables.c}/launch as a guess. but no luck

is this a limitation in the script or api?

There is no special concept for group scenes. They are clips. But there are some long standing bugs with them.

well, I tried the template in the current public release and it is seemingly working as expected. So BW 6 beta 5 is the problem maybe?

BW says they dont support 3rd party scripts so how would I report this issue to them?

If it works than it is fine. There had issues in the past with starting scenes in groups. Maybe they fixed it by now.

I mean it doesn't work in BW beta 6 but does in 5.3.13

Hi Moss,

Can I make a suggestion/feature request.

It would be really great to have a quick access toggle of knob sensitivity in the top tab above the time line ruler. That way it's set and the user can control plugins with one hand on the push and the other on the keys etc.

I find myself having to go all the way into the controller settings to switch between sensitivity settings because some plugs need more or less than others to work properly without the moue or the screen on. Maybe a simple 3 mode switch between -100, normal and +100 in that menu would work very well?

Holding shift doesn't really work to get fine control, not if right handed and even then, most people including me have the push off to the right or left and not dead centre, so you move out of the speakers stereo field to hold shit and turn a knob, plus both hands are taken then too.

What are your thoughts on this?

nevermind

Report it as a regression to Bitwig support (current Beta is buggy as hell).
