Hello.

A basic question I can't figure out, APC20 sliders, I don't want to modify what they do, just grab the input and send it back out untouched. I can't figure out how to do this.

I'd do it direct to VDMX but that would mess up all the other changes I've done to the mapping.

Just record the input into the Incoming and the same output message into the Outgoing and it should work just fine.

I'm not sure what you mean, thanks for responding though

Do you mean grab the MIDI message and use the same MIDI message as the output, as you would on a button? The slider gives me:

Code: Select all

B0 0E 02
B0 0E 05
B0 0E 09
B0 0E 0D
B0 0E 15
B0 0E 1A
B0 0E 1F
B0 0E 24
B0 0E 2E
B0 0E 33
B0 0E 38
B0 0E 3D
B0 0E 41
B0 0E 4A
B0 0E 4D
B0 0E 51
B0 0E 55
B0 0E 5C
B0 0E 5E
B0 0E 61
B0 0E 64
B0 0E 68
B0 0E 6A
B0 0E 6C
B0 0E 6E
B0 0E 71
B0 0E 73
B0 0E 75
B0 0E 76
B0 0E 77
B0 0E 7A
B0 0E 7B
B0 0E 7C
B0 0E 7E
B0 0E 7F

If I use this as the output, VDMX sees it as full on, which makes sense to me.

Oh, I see the concern.

If you select capture in the Incoming Message window and move the fader you will see B0 0E pp. The pp is a variable which stands for whatever value the last byte of data is at the moment. If you make that same message the Outgoing Message it will pass right through.

So, in effect, pp means that the translator will trigger regardless of the fader position, and have the pp in the outgoing message means it will send that same position to the outgoing route.
