Hello !
I'm new to samplerbox.
For the moment I am able to create my own samplesets with differnet velocity layers and round robins !
It works really ! kudo to devs !

I don't have any buttons on my raspberry for the moment.
I use prg change on my keyboard to switch from a set to another ( works fine )

For the moment I don't use %voice
I would like to know how to switch from a voice to another via any midi command from my keyboard.

I don't find any info about it on the site.


Have a nice day

Hi Pierre,
The trick is to give your keyboard controls (=knobs/buttons) a name via controllersCC.csv (see the in the root part of the configuration docs)
You have to know what signals they are sending, you can perhaps read that in your device's manual or find out via midimon.py (see the commandline section of the docs).
Then you assign the voices changes to the knobs of your choice via the CCmap.csv either in the root (for the system default) or in the sample directory for a sample dedicated mapping.
Hans distributed demo files in the distribution, based on his own setup.
Still it might help.
If the above sounds rather alien or just has some white spots, then please indicate where you loose trail.
Regards, Noek

Thanks again for your help !
I got into CCmap.csv and controllersCC.csv
I realized that I've got quite the same keyboard NEKTAR LX61+ as Hans

I'm now able to switch betwwen voices with my PADS !!!

Then I tried to play with the filters. It seems like my drawbars are correctly set up.  When I set Moog filter default to ON in the configuration .txt I can hear the filter moving when move the drawbar.
But for strange reason, I am not able to toggle on/off this effect from my keyboard although I set the button correctly ( CC0 val 0 or 1 ).

Any idea of what I'm doing wrong ?

Regards

Pierre

Struggled with this too  Rolleyes
It's a defined "switchon" value ranging 1-127.
The 0 is just releasing the button which is ignored apparently.
So the button on your LX shouldn't toggle but rather set a value not 0 and then samplerbox logic does the toggling. No clue what the "1" value toggles, buy obviously not the moog..
The trick here is that he makes 1 CC serving 127 buttons.

Ok I see.

Regarding the picture below.

To toggle ON/OFF the moog filter, I should send a CC2 at value 2 ? Right ?

The answer is yes, but..
.. you are using a different CC for every button.
That's not necessary, you'll see in the included controllerCCs.csv that Hans uses CC80 for all switch like things, thus saving on CC's and avoiding midi-standard CC's.
I liked that and used it on my device as well.
Just a hint..

I actually did'nt change anything on hans's files... the picture I sent you is from the downloaded image I got from  https://homspace.nl/samplerbox/

Hmmm sorry, I might have a made a strange manipulation as I realized this is not the original file !!!
I will further tests tomorrow !
