AKAI APC mini : all works - sliders and every pad wink

#37

Alesis qx49 midi usb works perfectly.

#38

Novation Launch Control XL works very good, I'll test LIVID CNTRL:R too both in stealth and USB mode in the next days

#39

Arturia Microbrute works great! Polyphony, velocity, pitch bend, mod wheel, octave up/down.

#40

USB hub support (on the host port) is certainly not on my short list of improvements. I certainly do welcome such contributions. But there is far more important work to be done.

I´ve tried a Maschine MK1 and it doesn´t seem to work. I´ve tried powering the axoloti via computer usb port and with a 9V 1A power plug.
It does the same led animation that when you plug it to a computer, but after that it just stays switched off.
I guess since it is a controller made specifically for its own software there´s something there making it not work.
No big deal, I wasn´t planning on using the Axoloti with the Maschine, I was just curious. Just letting you know.

#43

Maschine mk-1 does not work, I guess it needs more power, because most of the time it doesnt even finish the startup animation.

yeah, they do that frowning
same happens when connecting Maschine controller to for example a linux computer; usb is detected and everything , but since it doesnt run their software the controller shuts itself off.

If its not a class compliant midi device then it will not work... unless you find a developer willing to write a driver for it.
(assuming the protocol is documented)

#45

Korg microKorg Keyboard/Controller works with additional DC power in the microKorg.

#46

Just confirmed that the Arturia Beatstep Pro is working fine with the Axoloti powered from my laptop. BSP runs fine on USB power from the Axoloti, and I can still drive a pair of Sennheiser HD590s (which aren't horribly inefficient but aren't exactly efficient either) well enough. When I have more time I'll see if the Axoloti can still power it when it's sending CV.

I can confirm that the Roland V-Drum TD1KV works as a midi controller as well. Just tested it tonight with a drum patch I modeled.

#48

@Missun, do the keys also work?
for me only the knobs work, not the keys/pads.

#49

@alex They do wor for me, did you try fiddeling around with the editor? you can download it here.

#50

@Missun
Got it working now.

it was sending on midi-channel 2.
I was using the demo patch 'electric piano' to test, but turns out the midiport setting is not functioning ; midichannel can only be set in Views > Settings >MidiChannel .

#51

A midi port is not midi channel, two different concepts.

#52

in many years of working with midi I've never seen midi-ports other than in/out/thru , so with a range of 1-16/omni I assumed it could only mean 'midi channel' .

So what does it mean? irq setting ?

#53

It's used on USB midi , a USB device can expose multiple ports eg an ableton push as a user port and a live port, ive also a USB midi cable which has 2 midi din addressed as 2 different ports, it's pretty common with USB devices

#54

Yes 16 ports, for the same reason as channels, it uses 4 bits. But that's the only reason.
( and no, no relation to hardware Irq or otherwise)
