Finally, another of the FEW excellent vids presented by someone who knows what he is doing and knows how to explain it so that everyone understands. WELL DONE! (& thx)
Kenny, I hope that some day a school gets named in your honour, for all the great work you've done on these Videos... it's 2023, and everything is still relevant... Worked a charm with an Oxy Pro kybrd... Thx for all your efforts👍
Soft takover is FANTASTIC! I thought it would be impossible to control the DAW non-motorized faders, but that changes everything!!! Thank you for the video!
NOTE: At 4:14 mins, a temporary group changes those levels till they become at the same value. Your "mixing data settings" for that group of faders will be destroyed.
A video like this shows the infinite possibility of Reaper combined with MIDI controllers... you really do get the "analog-recording", tactile feel when you take the time to configure Reaper to respond to your MIDI controller.... it's a huge time-saver too... and anything where you use the mouse a little less is a beautiful thing. Some of the best MIDI controllers for use with Reaper as a control surface: Arturia Keylab Essential (actually has a Reaper map in DAW mode, using "Mackie Control" emulation) Arturia Keylab MK2 Arturia Beatstep (16 endless encoders, 16 pads that can be used as midi CC buttons)... and 16 maps/presets! Arturia Minilab MK2 (16 endless encoders, 8 pads x 2 banks, and 25 mini keys) Korg Nanokontrol2 (cheap and effective) Behringer X-Touch Mini (cheap and effective-- 8 endless encoders, CLICKABLE too) NI Maschine MK2 (cheap used, and brilliant as a MIDI controller-- bonus, you get super-responsive 4x4 drum pads, and 8 pages of them) NI Maschine MK3 (not cheap, but great!) NI Maschine Studio (you get the color screens of the MK3 but for super cheap-- used these go for about $250-300 these days, often including a Maschine software license!) NI Maschine Mikro MK2 (missing the encoders, but the click-wheel is super useful with Reaper) not to mention the Nektars, the M-Audio Axiom / Oxygen / Axiom Pro, etc... Lots of options. Take the time to set up your stuff and you will love Reaper even more. Nothing is more configurable or powerful.
Thank you Kenny for coming through again with another extremely helpful well thought video! I got M-Audio - Oxygen 25 that offers out-of-the-box integration with popular DAWs including Ableton Live, Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase, and many more. (No Reaper mentioned) But as you say - this is better for programming it ourselves. I've got to revisit this again and get this midi controller cooking. Great stuff. Clearly explained and easy to understand as is your style. Much appreciated as usual! :-) I know you've been real busy lately but would love to see a series on tempo, tempo maps etc.
Please disregard my previous question. I figured out that the Faderport isn't considered a midi controller. It's obviously a usb controller. I figured out not to enable it in midi device but add it under Control device at the bottom of the options window. Went to the drop down for input and output and chose Faderport. Then I went back to the actions screen list to add the mute button.
At 5:59 it seems when you are pressing the mute assigned button, when you left the button up, the mute cancels. Many of these physical buttons are momentary switches have 2 states, one when pressed, another when released. I do not want toggle.
Is it possible to treat a knob by treating the function of twisting it both ways as 2 different functions? As in, twist right = function x, twist left = function y? I'm trying to map a beatstep, and for say, selecting previous and next track, it's not letting me use the same knob. It would be far more helpful to keep both functions restricted to one knob. Is this possible?
Hi Kenny, I am a slow learner :) Just got a Nektar impact LX49+ midi keyboard. (Very similar to this Axiom 49) Enabled +control in midi devices. 1 . Put an amp sim plugin on a track. 2 touch volume. 3. > parameters > learn . Move knob on keyboard....... and ... nothing . what have I not done ? any help would be appreciated. I will also post this on the Reaper forum.
Great video! It makes it all so simple! Actually it works for me with the M-Audio Oxigene49, but changing the MIDI channel affects the music too. If, for example, I'm using a 4-channel VSTi and partition the keyboard using MIDI ch1 on basses and MIDI ch2 on the right side of the keyboard, I cannot change the MIDI channel to switch different "Command Banks". Any suggestion? Thanks.
Hey Kenny, your videos are great and very informative , i'm hoping you can do one on getting the faderport16 working in reaper , i cant find anything on youtube , thanx man.
Hi I can find it anywhere, how do go from midi channel 1 to middi channel 2 and midi channel 3 etc? Is there an ACTION that i could assign to a midi controller for this? I only want to toggle the 8 channel mixer i have to control volume pan channels for mixing,
Hey man I have the nano kontrol as well, I have an issue and was wondering if you could help. Whenever I hit the mute, solo, or arm button on the nano kontrol, it only works as long as I'm holding down that button, if I take my finger off the button, it stops working. How do you fix this? Thanks!
@@mateoaponte7556 Hey man! sure thing, ran into the same issue, followed this instructions songwritingandrecordingtips.wordpress.com/2012/04/21/recording-using-a-korg-nanokontrol-2-with-reaper/ , works just fine now!
Very big thanks! Maybe it's too late, but I do not understand: I am plug "Novation Lounchkey 49 mk2" to Reaper and trying to assign "9/Master" fader on keyboard to Master volume in Reaper and Master in Reaper jump non linear to MAX or to MIN position. Where is my mistake? How I can get linear control of keyboard faders?
Hi! thank you for this. I have a launchkey 49 novation, and somehow i was able to map physical faders to Reaper faders through midi channel 1... now i am trying to map others and all i get is channel 2... help!
hey! thank you for the turorial. I have a problem after mapping some keys to play/stop/Record/snap/metronome etc.. because if I want to up te octave of my midi keyboard I found out that pressing some keys I reach that number (key) which is already assigned to a transport control, and it plays the note and at the same time it does its function of play/stop/etc (this happens even if I assign them to different channels) How should I do? Thank you!
While in the midi note editor, you can hold down the scroll wheel of the mouse to drag around and navigate instead of using the scroll bars. Is there a way to bind that action to the same button but in the main track menu? I've tried to find it in the actions list but couldn't.
wow I really wish when I did this it worked that smoothly. If I assign an action to any midi knob or slider it continuously turns off and on. For example, I assigned the record action to the record button on my midi keyboard. Then when I press record on my midi keyboard it will record for a couple seconds then not record. Record again, then off again. Same with another actions I do. When I assign next track in the actions list to a button on my midi keyboard and press it it will keep going through to the next track until the end of the tracks. I cannot figure this out someone please help. Thank You!
Hi, nice video, as always!!!! One point, is it possible to add an action with a sequence of midi CC, for example (MIDI chain 1 CC 10 + MIDI chain 1 CC 23 )...a sort of shift or ctrl key. TY
Is it possible to assign a midi controller knob (rather than fader) to a track volume fader? It doesn't work right when I try it - but maybe there is an option I am missing somewhere?
So I have a Novation Launchkey 25 and I assigned the track left and right buttons to next and previous track like in the video. For some reason though it jumps two tracks instead of one and I can't figure out why. Anyone have any ideas?
Quick question! I'm somewhat new to this stuff, so I hope I can make enough sense that you may be able to help me a little. I just got the NanoKontrol2 (8 faders/8 knobs - transport buttons, blahblah) So, is what I'm looking for, is to be able to open up Reaper (any project; any time) and be able to assign ANY parameter within the project, to any fader/knob that I choose: Track parameters, VST parameters, Sends/Receives - anything that can be automated/controlled. So, for example, I have 4 tracks- Bass, Cello, Viola, Violin. Each instrument has 4 parameters I need to assign and control (1-expression, 2-attack, 3-release, 4-dynamics). I want to use 4 of the faders (1-4) to control the 4 different parameters (when in write/latch/touch modes) for each of these tracks, but use the same faders/knobs for each track's VST parameter. So, if I assign fader 1 to expression for track 1(Bass), I want to be able to use fader 1, for expression on Track 2 (cello), and it not effect the same parameters on the previous track(s). And, if it's possible, when I'm NOT inside the VST, or have the automation set to write/latch modes, I may want to control the volume of the tracks (ex: tracks 1-8; faders 1-8), but I don't want that to effect the automation I just wrote for the VST. I assume, that if the automation parameters aren't armed to record/write/touch, then it should be fine, but I don't want to lose the MIDI CC assignments to the VST parameters when jumping back and forth from the VST to the track. I guess to simplify my question, is there a way to assign the same fader/knob to multiple parameters within the project, without manipulating ALL the data that is assigned to that fader/knob? I want to use the same faders, for the same parameters, on multiple tracks, but I don't want them to all write at the same time. Sorry for the lengthy question! Thank you so much for your time!
Yes! Is that possible? I'm sure it is, but I don't know where to adjust those settings. I think (I'll have to see how I like the flow of working with it that way) it would be beneficial for me to use it like that.. for now at least.
Have you found how to change the control of tracks? I mean the first 8 faders and knobs are for tracks 1-8. If you have 16 track can you make the same faders to control track 9 - 16? I have this problem so long time and i look in forums no one knows. Thanks

I only get midi chan note 38 on every button and slider of my Cakewalk Peavy StudioMix, it will move very fast on what I select, but it says note 38 on all the functions I want to assign , any Idea of what I could config ? Thanks.
Just noticed your reaper layout is different than mine. All my channels are at the bottom with my master but you got all your on the left. Any one know how to do this?
Aurelio Tecladista you have to switch to CC mode. Read the manual. ;) Also you better get the software to customize the button modes from korg website.
Everytime I try to add a new shortcut function to a different button on my Faderport, the CC # stays at 47. So it asks me if I want to override the previous mapping. Also, every button my the Faderport will is used for that shortcut function. Please Help!
I hope faderport will have some real control surface or other way of controlling as otherwise the fader wont jump to the reaper value by itself and the buttons wont light up when you do stuff in reaper as it sadly only recived the midi info but does not send back to the controller :/
This doesnt work at all for my m audio code 49 midi keyboard. i suspect that when connected using USB that midi control messages dont work. I suspec tyou MUST use midi cables for this (and i dont have a power block for my midi controller)
Hey Kenny...do you this will work for using a Digidesign Command8 with Reaper?! I have a friend who would be willing to sell one of those dirt cheap. If I can use it with Reaper I see no reason NOT to buy it!
Hi, very usefull video! Do you know if in Amplitube its possible to change between presets manually using a midi keyboard?? for jamming situations? Thanks
I think it should work if properly mapped. Controls do basically what you assign them to do. I don't play live, but in addition to a midi keyboard, I have a Line 6 Fbv mkii. There are others similar and not too expensive. Also, you might want to check out the Guitar Wing.
Hi Kenny; Have you ever used a Novation Launchkey with Reaper? I'm thinking of getting one, but some users have reported that it doesn't work exactly right with Reaper.
He Kenny. Now I can control Record mode with my midi controller. :) nice. But Is there a way to SEND midi cc messages if record is activated? So the record button led will lit when recording?
As far as i have been able to figure out there is no way for reaper natively to send messeges back to the controller without using it in another mode or using plugins for reaper. So this is kind of a bad situation as a lot of modern controlers have lights and automated faders and what not.. so in tht case reaper will not send what you do in the software back to the controller as it just works one way.
moro am Brazilian and bought a nanokontrol2 and I am unable to make the same configuration change channels by nanokontrol2 to control tracks and their respective volumes if you can help me seriously eternally grateful
Finally, another of the FEW excellent vids presented by someone who knows what he is doing and knows how to explain it so that everyone understands. WELL DONE! (& thx)
I used this today for an AKAI 249 that wasn't really being used to do much more than play in MIDI notes. Thanks for your concise tutorials.

I finally have use for the BCR2000 which has been sitting around here for about 6 years. Thank you for the great video!
man, there's nobody better than kenny at blowing my mind
Kenny. Your tutorial are priceless!
Explanations are simple and clear.
I've learned so much. Thank you.
this the most simple and straight-forward explanation tutorial i ever watch..
Thanks Kenny! I hadn't assigned my controller to enable input for control messages so was very confused until coming here!
Wow! Thanks this is the way to go! Finally something i understand! I'm a musician not a comp wiz! Thank you kenny!

thanks a lot, man. Just bought a new controler, and you made it so easy to configure with reaper.
Thanks, Kenny! Sorted out my Novation X-Station proper without having to work with the controller's templates.
Once again, you are the saver of metaphorical lives. This setup with my Pacer was driving me nuts and you made it super simple. Thanks!
Thank you so much Kenny. Your tutorials are priceless sir. Can't thank you enough.👍😎👍

So this is kind of a bad situation as a lot of modern controlers have lights and automated faders and what not.. so in tht case reaper will not send what you do in the software back to the controller as it just works one way.
Thank you!
Any way how to control the sends ? somebody....
