Transposing Chord pads in realtime with Midi controller/ CC messages

Hi all,
i want to be able to transpose the chord pads in realtime with the drum pads of my Novation Launchkey midi controller whcih allows custom mapping of Key commands and Midi CCs.

Can i address either the ROOT KEY or TRANPOSE ALL parameter via CC messages, so i can create a custom mapping for each note of the octave? :thinking:

The Tranpose up/down and Tranpose all Modifiers seems to be meant for editing purpose and and i could not find a way to make this work, so i was wondering whether mapping to the values of the Root key parameter is possible as this would accomplish the same purpose.

Thanks in advance and best regards from denmark,
Mike

Hi,

I’m not with Cubase at this moment. But I think, you can do this and some MIDI Notes are assigned by default. Double-check the Remote Setting of the Chord Pads, please.

Hi Martin,

thanks for the reply. I tried the Remote control options already and by default the Transpose All setting is assigned as a continious controller to the Pitch Bend wheel( so no note range is possible), which in practise does not allow to select the individual notes of the octave and it bends the chords of the chord pads alongside the rest of the notes, which is not what i want.
I will try to change it to Midi CC and experiment with the values to see if i can program 12 Pad mappings with different CC values that correspond to the note of the octave. It would be great if you could map to notes and define a second tranpose octave similar to the chord pad octave in the remote control settings. I could not find a way to remote control the root note parameter either, nor find any documentation. Having the voicing parameter controlled by Mod wheel works great and is fun, but for transpose all the default continious midi remote control option does not work great (for my intended use case)

I don’t think there is any remote or key command access to the root key setting in Chord Pads at the moment.

Hi,

You can use PitchBend to transpose all Chord Pads.

The MIDI Notes transpose only the selected Chord Pad.
