    Hey Al Be, this video is great! Makes it easy to understand.
    Just wondering. Will you be able to map one knob, to different effects on various plugins? (E.g. Knob 1 for both Delay on Arcade, and Space on RC-20). But you can't have both plugins on at the same time I believe.
    Or can one knob only be mapped to just one effect in the whole of FL Studio?

    • @thisisalbe
      @thisisalbe  3 роки тому +8

      No you can map it to multiple. Just uncheck the "remove conflicts" option before you move the knob you are assigning. It's in the pop up

    Hello, I came up with a problem and I hope you can help me, you see; when I succesfully bind a knob or a fader to any parameter (in any plugin) it barely changes the valor, but FL Studio does recognize my MIDI Controler. Every time I move the selected knob or fader, the valor of the parameter binded to it changes just a little, not in a linear way; for example, I bind knob #1 to a phaser in a synth (which goes from 0-100, like dry and wet), it binds succesfully but when I move my knob the parameters freeze in 50 or 25 and it doesn´t change no matter how much I move the knob, pretty much like an ON/OFF switch, except this switch does not turn OFF. Got any sugestions? Thanks!

    Curious any chance you have any videos on how to assign my pads to play My own drum patterns? I use to use an MPK mini II, but now I have upgraded to the Alesis VI25. My issue is, I bought this midi, because Im a drummer, and sometimes prefer to play my loop patterns live. Im not to fond of the FPC, or maybe there's something Im still not getting.

    • @thisisalbe

    • @thisisalbe
      @thisisalbe  3 роки тому +1

      If your Mod wheel isn't working, it's because FL has been told to use something else for it. To fix it... Go to the browser on the left side, Current project - > Remote Control -> Left click on Mod wheel -> Link to controller -> Move the joystick straight up. The dialogue box should disappear and modulation should be good again. You may need to save to the startup template if new projects don't keep the mapping.

  • @02rjmartinez
    @02rjmartinez Рік тому +1

    Mini mapping a non-animated midi controller I kind of feel like is almost defeats the purpose because you have to constantly reset the faders every time you open the session, because if the faders aren't exactly where you had them last time, once you move it it'll move the fader out of position in the software

    *Faster Solution*. After you touch/move the parameter you want to control, just go to the ‘tools’ menu at the top, then ‘last tweaked’ and link to your midi controller.
