Automap

[Romain / rXg]

i wrote this before but imo the small shame  with novation is the faders
which are not mechanicals and this is bad for volume/gain mixing if you
have more than 8 tracks  ...
Now days I m using  V control  for ipad combined with automap -  in logic,
V control  works with mackie control ( as automap) but  then you don t have
the problem for the faders when more than 8 tracks (ie auto reset for the
new controller selected when you are switching  banks) ...

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/v-control-pro/id400423823?mt=8

What i don t like with V control is that you can not edit the controllers /
faders but you can use the touch feeling of the ipad to control Eq, of
course you can control all plugings and effects  .. ( it works for pro
tool, logic, cubase etc ) but yet you  can t change anything in the mapping
setting as Touch OSC does ...

In the end I think the difficulty with Total-Map-setting is the different
workflows  :  Editing/ playing / composing ( workflow1) , Mixing (
workflow2), Djing ( workflow3), etc , so it should be at least 3 dedicated
setting  . imo ...


Now with my novation and logic  is more or less a dream ...    I m using it
as a Big Remote control , using many templates dispatched through:

Automap ( partially ) -  Mackie controls - 16 Midi channels with their CC
,through the 3 midi-out , 2 midi-in. Actually the novation  is more or less
a midi-crossing-road of my Total-Midi-Map-setting in logic 9' Environment
and two other external device ( ie  : RME )...  :P

and I love the 2 lcd screens ... ;)
