Engineering makes several models of the X-Keys and the model Josh is using in this Insight.
#CONTROLLERMATE TUTORIAL SERIES#
You can program an X-Keys button to do anything from changing the color of its backlight, to performing a keyboard shortcut, to executing a pre-determined series of mouse moves, clicks and button actions. ControllerMate is compatible with many types of devices and can perform a wide variety of tasks. If you're curious about the technical side of it, we explain more detail here in a post titled Mulligan. X-Keys is USB-enabled programmable buttons. And Mulligan works without using plugin wrappers, and without requiring plugins to have any special MIDI features – meaning it works with any plugin.
#CONTROLLERMATE TUTORIAL PRO#
Each plugin can have a customized knob mapping (several, actually – which are all managed from within Pro Tools itself). (Otherwise, with just the ring of LEDs for visual feedback, it would be unclear whether a completely unlit ring indicated an unmapped parameter, versus indicating a parameter value of zero.)Īnd, in case it's not clear from what I've already said: Mulligan automatically connects with whichever plugin is the currently focused one. Mulligan also features some extended MIDI feedback, customized for the Twister: it turns the multi-color (RGB) LED under each knob on or off, to clearly indicate whether that knob has been mapped yet to a parameter in Pro Tools. Yes, Mulligan does indeed get data from Pro Tools for its eight plugin control knobs, and then automatically routes that data to the Twister's ring indicators.
These actions can include any mixture of typing, keyboard key combinations, clicking, dragging, AppleScripts and more. Using a graphical interface and drag-and-drop editing, users can program controller buttons to perform complex keyboard and mouse sequences. ControllerMate is a system that you can use to configure buttons, axes, and hatswitches on HID devices to perform keyboard, mouse and Finder actions. Can you verify that Mulligan fixes the issue wit sending midi data back to Twister's ring indicators?So sorry I missed your question before! ControllerMate is a controller programming tool that allows custom functionality to be added to standard HID devices (joysticks, trackballs, gamepads, keyboards, and more). CONTROLLERMATE NO LONGER WORKS WITH CATALINA THIS VID IS ONLY APPLICABLE TO OLDER MACSThis is a companion vid to my tutorial on getting the XKEYS 68 wit. I am endeavoring to save some time for those who have read it and now are eager to get things done.
Pro Tools is one of those applications that doesn't support faders with LED feedback by default. ControllerMate (part 4 of 14): One Button, Two Actions (Short Click versus Long Click) Note: this is not a substitute for the original and most excellent ControllerMate tutorial.
