How to change channel of a simple midi knob on a dj2go2 touch

Hi, I searched but can’t really find what i’m looking for. I have a djgo2 touch that has a master volume knob (not endless) that’s sending on Channel 16 | Value 10 which is conflicting with one of my 3 XoneK2 controllers that send on the same channel/value.

Obviously I want to change this. enter Bome. I paid and downloaded, watched some videos but still have no idea how to get this to work.

Pretty simple request I’m sure. Any help is appreciated.

Hi and welcome to the Bome community!

You can set up different translators to recognize the same message from different controllers. So if you want to translate from your DJ2Go2 touch and XoneK2 that send the same message, just set up individual translators for each and device a different input device for each and of course translate the output to a different MIDI message.

For more information about device selection, see this tutorial.

Thanks for the rreply! I just want to change the channel of the dj2go knob to a different channel so they don’t collide. I will leave the Xone alone.

What are the steps to do that? I followed your YouTube tutorial on changing channels
But it didn’t work for my knob. When I do “record midi” capture part by turning the knob it records a ton of messages and I can only select one and even that one doesn’t get translated.

Just need a step by step for knobs if you can point me to one.

Thank you!

After you select the incoming message, you need to change the value to any value and then use a local variable (in this case “qq”) that can be passed to the output.

Then in the output message, change the desired channel you want to map it to and send the same variable “qq” as the value of the output.

Attached is an example.

Make sure you set up your aliases correctly.

You can learn more about aliases from this tutorial.

Also the routing of the preset of translator.

For more information about device selection, see this tutorial.

For the Xone K2, I just set up a MIDI thru route so that there is no translation.

See the attached project file.

I’ll try this out and get back to you! Thanks for replying on a Saturday. I’m a software engineer and even this is tough to unravel but having you around (and so quick) gives me confidence.

Definitely telling some friends about this

Ok here’s where i’m at:

the incoming:

when I turn the knob, I get all the messages in the incoming box. am I supposed to select one or all of them one by one and change the settings for them? If just one, which one ?

the list scrolls to here:

The outgoing:

also got some errors I don’t understand. (I did give bome accessiblity access but I don’t understand the first one)

P.S when I do select one of the messages it turns into this:

P.S.S
When I log out midi out, I get nothing after turning the knob. (but can see midi in)

Right click on the cog Icon and turn raw capture off with a left click.

When you are done it should look like this.

Then you should see messages like this.

Click on one of the messages and it will transfer to the incoming.

Then set the incoming to this. Any value set to qq.

Finally set up the outgoing message to the MIDI Channel CC# that you would like with a value of qq.

In this example I’m setting it to CC1 on MIDI CH 1

And here is what my log window shows.
