Hi there,
I was wondering if there was a way to assign MIDI CC to Pattern Mutes, as opposed to Global Mutes. I’m trying to control my Digitakt with an external midi controller, and I realized that the MIDI CC for muting only works with Global Mutes…
Anybody noticed that? Maybe I’m missing a setting or something?
Are you sending 94?
Indeed I am, kind sir.
Works for Global Mutes (green) and not for Pattern Mutes (purple).
I guess you can only control global mute then as thats the only CC for mute listed.
Bummer… Maybe something can be added in future updates?
Also I’m having an issue using the solo CC control. It simply doesn’t work…
Hi!
I am wondering if someone found a solution to send a CC message to make a pattern mute instead of a global mute. Any suggestion? Or is the global mute the only one you can control via CC?
Trianglewave: for the solo option, I do the following:
If I want the track 1 to be solo, I send seven CC94 (Global mutes) to the other 7 tracks at the same time. It works in my setup.
Thanks!
MIDI CC 110 is pattern mute. I’m not sure why this is documented as CC 66 in the manual but that one does’t work. I had to use MIDI monitor to find it out it was 110. Now working perfectly
Welcome.
Please report this in this topic.
I’m checking for Digitone…
Edit : no CC yet. NRPN only.
Thanks! Reported in the thread
What do you send for mutes to enable or disable?
Is it 127 or 0 to NRPN MSB to enable/disable? There is no mention in the manual.
I know this is a Digitakt topic, but I’m curious…
I don’t remember, I checked with a midi monitor, Pattern Mute sends 4 CCs (NRPN), but I didn’t check the on/off values.
The midi message for Digitone pattern mutes is expressed in CC as CC99 1, CC98 104, CC6 0, CC38 0 for unmute, and the same, but CC6 1 for mute. If I am not mistaken, the NRPN parameter number would be the value of CC99 (1) x 128 + the value of CC98 (104) = 232. And the NRPN value would be the value of CC6 (1 for pattern mute, 0 for unmute) x 128 + the value of CC38 (0) = 0 for unmute, 128 for mute.
I found a way to toggle the mute using a note on/off command from an external controller using the Blokas midihub to translate note commands into the series of CCs required. If anyone else is looking to do the same, here’s the patch: DNPatternMute.mhp (1.3 KB)
For this to work out of the box, the controller toggles need to send note number 99 with velocity of 2 for ‘note on,’ 1 for ‘note off.’ Assign channels 1, 2, 3, 4 to the Digitone tracks you want to mute/unmute.
