Radio button 8 via midi

#1

I apologize if this has been covered elsewhere... I've searched and read a few threads but either didn't understand them or the solutions were for something more complex... or no solution at all.

I'm using the object "ctrl/i radio 8 v". I see it can take a CC but it applies to the entire object (all 8 integers). How do I use it from a "sending midi data" perspective... or do I need something else. I'm messing with the osc\brds\brds_analog.axh" if it helps. There is an 8-way radio button for the waveform and I'd like to send it midi data from my controller buttons to change wave type.

I think you'd have to get the midi inputs from the buttons and re-send them to the midi cc of the radio buttons (value 0-7); so you need eight midi receive and eight midi send. You can also use a single button combined with a (cyclic) counter and a midi send, or a single pot, divide by 8 and have one midi send. To get a more specific answer you need to say more exactly what controller you want to map.

thanks for the reply... I'm using the novation remote 25SL. If I understand it correctly, each of my 8 buttons need to be setup as NORMAL (The Low Value is sent when the button is pressed, nothing is sent on release) and send on the same CC with values of 0-7. I'll give that a try.

Edit: that worked. thanks again!

What you could do is connect the radio buttons to a multiplexor that switches on a switch connected to your desired CC.
