With Generic MIDI selected, click on it and scroll down the MIDI Bindings pull-down and select My First Try. Now, mount your DAW (MixBus/Ardour) and navigate to Preferences/Control Surfaces. Also, change the header in the duplicated script to end in map files in the midi_maps folder and rename it to something like 'my_first_try.map.'. If you want a quick and easy way to check you've learned something so far, I suggest you duplicate one of the. map extension, as well as being in the right midi_maps folder. The file itself also has to end with the correct. Whatever you put in between may or may not work, but it won't stop the file loading. One is that the content of the file has to start with this header: There are two obligatory parts to a file that will show up as a MIDI Binding Map within your DAW. I still have almost no programming skills, and I'm almost 65-years-old, so if I can make sense of the script above, so can you!

What I'm trying to say is I knew nothing much that was relevant, beyond how to use computers to put magazines together. He got me and the missus started on scripting, and after a couple of years, we were billing a very large publisher serious money to put all their technology titles on-line every month. I don't want to leave anyone behind on this journey, so I'm going to start analysing the ArdourMIDIBindings scripting language from exactly the same position I was in sometime in 1995, when I was trying to get to grips with HTML and build a web site: No specialist knowledge whatsoever.įortunately, my younger brother was a patient dude, as well as an absolute visionary when it came to the significance of the Internet and mobile (cell) phones.

The free version of Tracktion is basic but fully functional, no timeouts, or buy me bleeps. The Ardour site doesn't appear to have any video tutorials, unlike Tracktion who have numerous official video tutorials and links to user tutorials. I've been following a few tutorial on youtube by a fella called Unfa. And I never really got the hang of sequencing and midi on the last spin around either.Įlephant, one bite at a time, but I have indigestion. Now I feel totally out of my depth, things have moved on quite a bit in Ardourland since I last used it. I haven't tried Tracktion on the system yet, as it worked better on Win10.

I've since had to upgrade my desktop due to the motherboard becoming unreliable.įinally I get to play with a working system, Ubuntustudio 21.04 installed, which has some nice upgraded tools and Ardour 6.6. Tracktion/waveform worked well enough on a WIN 10 laptop, but was decidedly flaky on the ubuntustudio 20.04 desktop. Two repairs later with plastic parts disintegrating, I decided to buy a new keyboard. So I got out my old Evolution mk-149 dumb midi keyboard, to find it was slightly the worse for wear.

Mic, stand, and a replacement USB audio interface, UMC204HD which came bundled with a DAW - Tracktion/Waveform and a neat plugin Collective. I'd given some mics and stands back to my son, so that started a slew of purchases.

My partner was due to do a short zoom performance for her Ukulele group. My latest foray into midi started at the end of last year. Thanks again Simon, I'll try things out once all the deliveries have arrived. On the other hand, it can give you eight faders and pans that do something quite useful at mix time. However, there are limitations, notably that is is control-specific, meaning if you set up your physical controls for Channel 1, you can't simply flip them to whatever the active channel is. Some of the on-line information, such as YouTube videos, can be tantalisingly vague at precisely the point where you probably have the greatest information need! Although this one is 10 years old, and references the Ardour, it does cover the quickest way to get a few controller assignments. This also applies to the Ardour open platform workstation, on which MixBus and MixBus 32 are built.īefore I get too into this, it would be great to know how many people are actually interested, and if there are any particular areas they'd like to know about. Having banged on about what a good deal Harrison's MixBus was when it was on promo (and still is, even at regular price), I thought I should share some progress I've made in getting generic MIDI controllers to act as a physical mix surface.
