I’ve looked through the forum but haven’t seen this question yet. If it has been answered already I apologise.
Here’s my question: I’ve set up a script for my AKAI controller that works perfectly fine and does just what I want it to. Yet every time I start a new project I have to load this specific script again. Is there an option like “set current script as default” or something similar? Since it is the only controller I currently use it would be handy not to have to set it up / load it up every time.
A new project is usually my template or a clean project. In both cases no script is active unless I activate it manually which is what I would like to change.
I active the sript by opening the MIDI remote section and choosing my preset. So it’s pretty easy but it seems pointless to do it all the time.
I think we might misunderstood each other here. The menu in my screenshot is the exact same menu I open every time - be it in a new project or in an older project where I haven’t activated the Midi remote setting/preset that I choose from that menu. So in short my question would be if I can make this setting a default setting so that I don’t have to go to this menu and activate it all the time.
I’m sorry, could you please attach screenshots, how does it look like on your side? You should get the setting immediately by default. You should not do this when creating a new project.
Therefore I would like to know, how does it look like, when you create a project.
If I start a project by using one of my templates (Screenshot 1, below “empty”), everything works as expected right away because the project was saved that way. The same goes for all projects where I set up the MIDI remote the same way I described above. So it really isn’t a big problem at all. I would just be nice to have the option to save a certain setup as default which I can’t find.
thank you. This doesn’t apply here because I have no trouble finding the script in a new project or an older one where it isn’t activated yet. My problem is that it is not activated by default. (See my latest post in this thread)
Yes, I choose the controller (MPD218) and the assignment (MPD Control)
I could do the same in the lower zone but either way I have to choose first for the script to be active.
The scripts are working even without selecting them. My guess is, that your scripts are using the 1st (default) page at the very beginning. But you need to select “Prog 13” to get your desired functions. You have to do this manually.
From what I understand you want the remote to be directed not to the default page but to a later one. One way to workaround this, is to create a totally empty template, setup up your MRs in it, and recall this template instead of a “real” empty one.
Yes, this is correct and that’s a good work around. As mentioned before it works with my other templates too. The whole point of this thread was to ask the community if there is a way to make my last setting the default but it seems there isn’t any.
Exactly, when we’re using MRs setup using the assistant.
When using scripting (which doesn’t seem to be the case here) we can make it start from whichever page we want. Just mentioning it, in case you have any MRs scripted.
thank you - this solves it for me.
I have transferred the settings from my setting “prog 13” to the default setting and now it works perfectly in every project and by default. It would still be nice to have an option to choose which setting you want to be the default but since I only use one it’s fine in my case. Thank you!
