    I didn't decide between Elgato Stream Deck +, Audio Mixer, just streamer desk or Megalodon Triple Knob Macro Pad. I'm thinking to buy the nob Controller too to make a Combo. Which one you will choose base in your experience?

    I was just about the pull the trigger on the XL version. And I asked myself, what else can it do other than act as a really good shortcut controller for my daw.
    Something that I could quite easily do myself by learning the keyboard shortcuts and a cheat sheet whilst I do so.
    But this, this is the thing that pushed me over the edge. I only have a 61 key Midi Keyboard.
    And like you say, all the context switching is on the bottom octave.
    It never crossed my mind to use it as an articulation switcher.
    So now I'm thinking, maybe I can create sheets for my favourite VSTS. And have them bring up and install my own templates, and switch through those templates as well.

    This is a great explanation on setting up articulation with Elgato and I have been using it for sometime with my Spitfire BBCSO and Abbey Road libraries with Logic Pro X. However, what I really want to do is to quickly and efficiently switch the articulations while editing the MIDI track that has already been entered or recorded using the Elgato. By that I mean that I have selected a (e.g.) BBCSO articulation set in Logic and now want to change individual or groups of MIDI notes WITHOUT having to use my mouse to select the new Articulation pull down menu in Logic (e.g. Legato, Piz, etc.). I want to just select the articulation that is already setup in Elgato by pressing the button, thus eliminating the time wasting mouse movement. Any suggestions? Thank you!

      @@DoryVideo Do you have any suggestions for using the Streamdeck to select articulation vs. having to use the pull down menu in Logic? Again this is going back AFTER the midi has already been recorded (not live changing the articulation as it is recorded) and using the selections to change for example, a highlighted midi note selection.

  • @ethan123456ish

    Can the buttons on stream deck the activate articulations with multiple note inputs? For example, C0 for Short and D1 for Spiccato.

      @@DoryVideo hi mate!
      I was having a hard time getting the midi notes to trigger in cubase (had it working on reaper previously). Turns out because I had expression maps assigned that didn’t have specified remote keys assigned. I basically had to assign each articulation a remote key and then it worked.
      Thanks for the videos!

    Hmm. I did this extensively against Cubase 11. It was great. Then I got Cubase 12 and found all my hard work could not be automatically picked up against Cubase 12. The issue was not Cubase. The issue was that Streamdeck identified the "Application" as different and therefore I had to rebuild all the same menus and buttons and images etc etc against Cubase 12, A lot of work. I approached Streamdeck Support and they said effectively "Sorry, can't help You. They are seen as different Applications, version 11 and version 12". I searched the Registry to see if i could change a simple setting, unsuccessfully. If somone has a solution that works, please let the readers here know the best way to do this. Hoping this starts the conversation. It works really well but caution going up a version of the Application software. I guess we have to wait till Cubase 13 or 14 to find out if this issue persists. Regards.
