Launch Control XL MIDI Remote

Thank you for your reply.
Yes, I would be interested to know how you achieved this and also to have the link to that thread.
Thank you so much for responding; this is driving me crazy!

There’s no such link. I was asking that you open a new thread, so that I can answer there, without ā€œdisturbingā€ this thread :slight_smile:

Got it! Topic created here:

Thanks

Dear gurus,

I have a question about:

  • Novation LaunchControl XL MK2
  • Cubase Pro 15

My goal is to use my Novation LaunchControl XL as an MIDI Controller for mixing Dub Reggae as on an analog mixing desk, so:

  • each of the eight XL channel strips are assigned to a Cubase channel
  • the slider is (of course) the channel volume (drums, bass, guitar…)
  • each of the three rotating knobs is an effect send (tape delay, spring reverb and room reverb)
  • upper button row = solo channel
  • lower button row = mute channel

With help of the Cubase Mapping Assistant I finally achieved this functions.

But what I am missing now is the correct visual feedback on the XL:

  1. The two lower button rows should be in sync with Cubase and have the same colour:
  • solo = red
  • mute = yellow

I use the LCXL_OQ.syx on my XL and the buttons light green and sometimes come out of sync with Cubase, e.g. if I click the Cubase solo button with the mouse and then on the XL.

  1. When a rotating knob is on 0 (fully counter-clockwise) it would be great if the LED below switches off to have a better overview of the FX sends.

As far I have learned I have to program this functions on my own, Cubase Mapping Assistant isn’t able to do so. I was a former programmer using Pascal, C++, HTML e.g. I read about Steinberg MIDI Remote API v1.1 Programmer’s Guide, .js, .json, HUI and .midiremote files but I am confused even more.

I hoped I can use the Cubase Mapping Assistant and then edit the generated .midiremote to control the leds but that seems not possible.

Can anyone help me out?
