MIDI Control Surface compatibility
Does anyone have a Line 6 KB37 or other "generic" USB MIDI Controller working as a Control Surface in PT LE8? If so, how did you manage to set it up?
I am trying to use my Line 6 KB37 as a basic MIDI controller for a few simple tasks in PT LE 8. With KB37 connected, with no configuration at all it can already be used by PT to record MIDI Note data into a MIDI track. But I would also like to assign KB37's transport buttons and maybe a few knobs to control things such as PT transport buttons, a few plug-in parameters, etc. Seems like I need to set up KB37 as a "Control Surface" to do this. KB37 does come with a MIDI editor, so I can assign the type of MIDI messages sent from each button knob (MIDI CC, Program Change or MMC and their values). I tried the steps in this support article, but no luck: Basically, it sounds like KB37 (or any device that is not one of the devices found in the PT Setup > Peripherals menu as a supported Controller) can use the JL Cooper CS-10 Personality, and then configure the device to emulate a CS10. But when I select the JL Cooper CS10 Personality in the Peripherals menu, I have no option to then choose a MIDI In or Out port. Strangely, if I choose one of the other Personalities it DOES allow me to choose the KB37 USB MIDI In & Out ports for it, but of course it won't work since KB37 will not emulate one of the supported controllers Thanks! |

Re: MIDI Control Surface compatibility
Are you using Pro Tools 8? If so, they killed this functionality. Unless you have a JS Cooper cs-10, this preset will do nothing now.
