I only know of this one

I confirmed with him last year that it doesnt spring back to the middle, which is important that it doesnt when doing panning.
If he needs a minimum number of orders to do a batch I might be interested in buying one too. I notice the cart button has dissappeared from the page yet still present on his other controller. From memory it was about $100 but dont quote me on that.
Today, set up remote device touch controller with an XY pad to control the multipanner using Quick Controls assignements. Solves a problem.
example.
X=ch5/CC0 (selected QC1) PAN LR
y=ch5/CC1 (selected QC2) PAN F R
etc, etc
A second XY pad can do height, rotate etc
@ckon ā¦ Iām curious ā¦ does that mapping work globally, meaning that the controller will control the Multipanner of whichever track is selected?
Iāve got a dual midi joystick, which I partly wanted to control X/Y elements of many VST instruments/libraries. But I am also really hoping to use the 2nd joystick for the Multipanner, ācos I work a lot in quad mixes. But when I try to map the joystick, it only maps to the Multipanner of the track Iāve got selected. I canāt figure out how to make it work as a global default.
AFAIK, if you are using Quick Controls for this, then it is a two-step process: You must map the parameter in the Multipanner to āQC slot X of Selected Trackā, and you must assign that quick control slot to the desired parameter on all tracks you want to control this way.
But for most of the parameters you can simply map them directly to the controller, and set their focus mode to āSelected Trackā.
The only parameters that you canāt map directly to a MIDI Remote controller (only GOD knows why) are: Z plane, Tilt Y, Tilt X, Orbit, Counter-shot, Radius, Height Focus and Signal Height.
But since you only have 8 QC slots anyways, if you are doing the QC way youād still need direct mappings if you want to control all of them.
Thanks Henrique. That seems to suggest that itās a track-by-track assignment process ā¦ and not possible globally. Thatās tedious, and seems ridiculous. But what would I know?!?!?
I was about to say that you can easily set up QC for all the tracks at once using Q-Link, but turns out you CANāT!
Then I thought, oh, but surely you can at least easily ctrl+C ctrl+V and fly through channels using the arrows and quickly paste the same config everywhere, but you also CANāT!
Then I tried saving them as part of track presets, but you also canāt apply presets to multiple tracks at onceā¦
Ufffā¦
I like the Nuage the most. Most of the panās parameters, such as Divergence and Object Size, have an absolute position, not just the x, y, and z axes. Therefore, itās crucial to be able to assign them to a Moving Fader. Itās also a necessary feature to be able to control the parameters of two channels simultaneously. I also like that you can assign the recorded parameters to a rotary encoder to trim and adjust them. Itās a real shame that the development of such a promising physical controller was discontinued.
