The other source of information might be the windows or mac template editor. However, if you have the unit, it should not be that hard to monitor the MIDI coming from it for different button pushes and ask for some help making the best out of the unit’s capabilities with a MIDI map. As already said above, yes it could be done but would require making specific code to do so… that is “send the unit plus development pay” or to put it another way: no that can not be done in Ardour as it is. Actual midi monitoring will tell for sure as documentation does not. Could it be done with ardour?”Īgain guessing that ableton does this or that is of little help. “And that is what I guess ableton live does. The only real way to find out is to actually monitor the MIDI messages while pushing various buttons and combinations of buttons. However, considering it does have a HUI template where this change of message would have to happen in the controller (from my understanding of HUI).

The manual is next to useless so far as finding this out. My guess is that the buttons on the right change the midi sent by the bottom row of buttons.

The Template Editor may allow setting up the XL in such a way it follows MCP quite well or in a way that works best with generic “It’s my own wild guess that it’s up to the DAW or whatever software to decide to change it’s internal control surface mappings depending on whether it receives a particular midi message or not.”īetter to find out for real. HUI is closed and undocumented to most people except where they have reverse engineered it.

MCP on the other hand is well supported by almost everyone because the original LC (Logic Control) controller manual came with full MCP protocol documentation. It is unfortunate that they chose to emulate HUI rather than MCP as HUI is outdated and deprecated. However, they may also just send a press message and expect the DAW to take the same event to mean different things, Ardour can not handle that without a device specific module as Paul has said. The buttons on the right that control the meaning of the lowest row of buttons may be internal to the unit and just change the messages those buttons send which would allow you to set up a useful midi generic midi map. This means you need to use a MIDI monitor like the one internal to Ardour to figure out your own MIDI map. Novation has not seen fit to give reasonable documentation on this device. Here’s a link for those who haven’t the faintest idea of what the controller looks like so that I am saying makes a bit of sense: The question is: Can you map the buttons on the right (or any other) to change the functions (mappings) of the bottom row of buttons in Ardour just the way ableton does? Doing so would increase the controller’s possibilities ten fold.
These buttons on the right hand side can be mapped to any other function in ardour, as they also send out midi messages. In ableton, however, you can change the function by pressing a set of buttons on the right, choosing between solo, mute or record arm. The Novation launch control XL controller has a row of buttons at the bottom which in ardour defaults to the track solo funtion.
The ardour mapping for the device works very well, but it lacks some functionality. As many of you might know, this device is perfectly integrated with AbletonLive. I have recently purchased the aforementioned device and I am pretty happy with it.
