Hi every Bome users,

I need your help for my first project:  
I use an Octatrack and I want command it with a Platform m+ controller to use the motorised fader as feedback.  
So far I used an Electra one controller, so I would control OT, that’s connected to Electra One by midi cable, translate MCP (platform m+) to CC (electra one) to control Octatrack.  
I learned how translate fader (pitch bend value in Platform) to CC thanks to this topic [Pitch Bend input to send CC?](https://forum.bome.com/t/pitch-bend-input-to-send-cc/1350) and it works fine.  
My issue now is that the Platform’s faders commands return on initial position, if Electra one commands the fader remain in correct position.

Is there a rule to control it?

Thanks  
Matteo

Hi and welcome to the Bome community!

Hi, you can add translator with incoming of pitch bend any channel any value set channel to pp and value to qq with outgoing of pitch bend channel pp value qq and have the input come from you Platform M+ and output go back to your Platform M+
