People,
I know there are a number of Windows users who purchased Logic Control and
who would be keen to use it with Cubase SX. I know, I'm one of them.
Well, there *may* be a light at the end of the tunnel...
Using a combination of MIDI Yoke, DirectX9 and a piece of software I wrote,
I've had some success in using my LC with SX1.05. I'm hoping that Steinberg
or Emagic might provide native support, but I didn't want to wait.
The following functions work:
* transport control, including jog dial & markers
* zoom control on the project window
* mixer automation, including volume, EQ, FX, mute/solo
* user defined keys F1-F8
* channel views
The following functions don't work:
* pressing the V-Pots
* some LED oddities
You will need to already have installed:
MIDI Yoke NT1.71
DirectX9
If you have Windows XP, are technically literate and wish to help complete
this picture, e-mail me directly. If it seems okay on a few people's set
ups, I'll make a beta version available.
Note:
Please don't treat this as some kind of heresy. No platform wars - it's
just the PC users who got stuffed.
I'm not interested in porting this to other platforms (no enquiries please
at this time). I only built it as a personal project.
If you don't want to install MIDI Yoke or DirectX9 on your machine, I can't
help you - I understand that many people don't want to screw about with
upgrade, and yes, there is a chance that they may screw up your working
setup.
Let me add, there are no warranties *at all* - it's an alpha, and though it
works on my machine, it may reduce yours to a pile of smouldering rubble.
I don't guarantee it'll ever get beyond the alpha stage.
I don't guarantee it'll make any sense at all without the proper Mackie
Cubase template.
However, I intend to develop this as far as I can - and if there are any
Mackie Control users who might be able to run a couple of tests with
MIDI-OX, I'd appreciate a little help to fill in the gaps.
Regards,
Steve.
