    Hi, great video and very good software. I combined my setup with the Korg Nanokontrol Studio. Can you please help me how I can change the colours of the buttons (e.g. Mute) on the Nanokontrol with your software? That would be really a great help. Cheers.

    i really love the app and just bought the midi+mackie license! the only thing is I bought it hoping to be able to control the "talk" button on the scarlet 18i20 3rd gen! in fact thats the main reason I bought it... would that be a feature that could be added soon please pretty please ? :D :D

    Nice work, I have the 3rd gen, can the talk button in focusrite control be assinged to midi? now it is binded to a keyboard shortcut that's not practicle, would be great to shortcut that option to my midi controlled footswitch for example, If you confirm that this is feasable I would buy a license for sure.

    Hi how do I start? I would love to buy the Behringer X-Touch Mini. If I do so: Do I have to run some Behringer software to make the Midi Controller to work in windows? And as a second step install your software? - I have already installed Focusrite Control and have it connected to Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 3rd generation. Appreciate your helg!!

    • @RaduVarga
      @RaduVarga  Год назад

      I think you need the Behringer driver, you might want to also grab the XTouch Editor to make the device work as you want it to.

    Question - Is there a way to connect to a BOSS ES-8. So it is not a controller for the Scarlett But it needs to send signals to the BOSS unit.
    Setup:
    Mac 11.6.1
    Logic Pro X 10.7.1 OR Reaper 6.40
    Scarlett 18i20 ver 3
    Boss ES-8 Editor App
    Having a hard time figuring out how to get the Scarlett to properly talk to the ES Editor (and device) app. MIDI communication error. So it's something with the Scarlett as it works fine with the Roland UM-One USB (ultimately want to get rid of that)
    Thanks

      If you can send midi to the computer from it, then yes, you will be able to use Focusrite Midi Control to gain access to Focusrite Control.

  • @PaulLebow
    @PaulLebow 2 года назад

    With my gen2 18i8 there is no authorization of the device to enable midi required. The Focusrite Control software is also different. If you go to the Focusrite website they say midi does not work out of the box until it is enabled via the software. When one clicks the little gear there is no dialogue at the bottom of the window that you show for a Gen 3 device.

    • @RaduVarga
      @RaduVarga  2 года назад

    Dude this is too expensive for a MIDI mapper. People would support it a lot more if it was fairly priced. $10 seems more reasonable and easier to adopt.
