Hello Community,

with an YouTube Tutorial from Bome: ‘midicc to mcu’ with project example downloading i was able to get cc 7 to mcu working. How ever i tried to make it reverse but the fader movement work not as expected.
could someone help which rules needed or simply share an working template.

Regards

Hi and welcome to the Bome community!

I don’t think we did a MIDICC to HUI tutorial. What are you referring to. Also Mackie HUI protocol does not have a master faders but Mackie MCU does. Are you trying to convert between CC and Mackie MCU or CC and Mackie HUI?

Maybe if you post an example and where you are stuck, I can provide more assistance.

Hi,

Use the below example which handles all 9 faders.

My aliases look like the below:

You can learn more about aliases from this tutorial.

Preset 1 handles messages from my controller to the Mackie App.

hello steve,

thanks for quick answer. support is amazing here.
i will test tomorrow but this seems to me like as you say a complete pack of 9 faders. are this set can be divided into individual faders?
because I didn’t want to have all 9 assigned immediately. I will use a maximum of 5 faders for mcu slots. I wanted to use the other faders in another application.

It can easily be modified for any number of faders. In the example I posted I start with CC0. This can be changed by modifying the value of the global variable ‘ga’ in the Init Preset. We can also set up individuals translators for each fader you want to use and hard code them to a given fader number.

hey steve,

thanks for template but it wont work as expected.
could you please send me an example for hardcoded cc7 channel1 to mcu master fader and back from mcu master fader to cc7 channel1.
Does E8 stands for master Fader in mcu language?

Yes, E0 through E7 are faders 1-8 and E8 is the master.

Convert it to Note 46 if you want bank left and 47 if you want bank right. Both MIDI CH 1.

See this tutorial for converting CC to note.
