I use my launchcontrol XL for making music and since I’m building a synth right now I was checking out midi mapping and midi feedback on it. This whole video had absolutely nothing to do with what I was looking for, but now I’m stuck in a Resolume rabbit hole, because clearly I need this in my life 👌✨ great video!
Thanks for the video. Very helpful! I noticed on your top row of knobs, you had some video controls set such as play forward, backwards, etc. as well as other video controls like beatlooper. Are these controls set up globally so that they are applied to whatever clip is currently active and only that one (one at a time)? Did you do this using application midi map instead of composition midi map? Thanks!
Hi. So few videos about this. Thanks. Wondering what you are using now? Same setup? And are you using Arena or Avenue? Does Avenue let you midi map if you are using Arena?
I use the APC at a club and even then I don't use the buttons for triggering clips, I just set it to toggle FX. It's all preference though, like EVERYTHING in VJing, there's no right or wrong. I prefer to use a mouse to select clips because, with my setup, using any MIDI controller for triggering clips would be very inefficient. I have several decks in Resolume and they all have over 80 column, there aren't enough MIDI buttons on any controller to map every single clip in a deck. With a mouse, I can be in full control of my performance and quickly navigate through Resolume, previewing clips and quickly selecting new clips to play. I can also quickly navigate through a deck with the scroll wheel and easily choose a new deck. I understand the point of using a MIDI buttons for clip triggering, like with the Novation Launchpad, if you're working with a pre-programmed show with a big DJ (for example, Comix uses the Novation Launchpad and Launch Controller XL since it fits perfectly with what they do), and you have one deck with enough MIDI buttons to map every clip you have. But in my case, I'm always improvising and going through tens of hundreds of loops each night, I need to be fast and efficient in my clip selection. And that's what I get with a mouse.

Cool, thx a lot for you in deep explanation. I had the same problems that launching clips with buttons doesnt make a lot sens in my case. Normally I do sets running 8 hours (fitness event) so I need to replace my clips and have to look at my computer screen anyway, so I use the mouse a lot more than the buttons on my APC20.
Hi, tysm for sharing! I'm having trouble mapping layer efx. For example, once I map layer 1 efx knobs on the 3rd row, it will only control layer 1 efx, and not other layers. What should I do??

Everything is within Res 5 Arena
Did this work straight out the box like this or did you custom the settings ? And dose it work out with arena 7 ?
how do i launch a clip on another layer but not blend it, just have it trigger and the previous clip stop?
how to synconize the audio with visual?

I have Res 6 now but still prefer 5.1.4 Arena
@@vjhashtag9755 Thanks! Still using the XL controller?
have you ever figured out how to unreverse the lights on the launchcontrol? driving me bonkers.
I use actually a APC20 to select clips and another Controller from
Novation for FX. Why do you select clibps by mouse?

I think a better setup would be to use a touch screen monitor. But those are expensive.
jep, that's what I thought of. but maybe a mirrored part of the screen (with the clips) on a tablet would be a good start!
why wouldn't you want to use a mouse! a brilliant invention...
would this be good for controlling synths and other stuff in Reason? I wanted to use knobs n sliders more.
Yeah I think it's great for video synths.
Hi! How do you get the light feedback on the launch control? thx
Make sure to setup Midi Output in the Resolume settings, that will enable Midi feedback.

figured it out.. thanks again for the vid :)
delicious
Hey Ik it's been too long uploading this video...I wanted to know if u could share the mapping file :)
loveli
had to end it with a quote
how do u transform mp4 to dxv?
You have tou use Mpeg streamclip, a freeware wich you can export a clip to dxv 3
I do it in Adobe After Effects, you can even make videos with alpha channel. Its amazing!
Use the program Alley that is now included with Resolume software for free
i have novation launch controller please send me controling file ??????
