Merging Custom Map Data into Older Sessions
[MERGING CUSTOM MAPS]
Let's take a closer look at how to take the custom Knob and Fader Maps you've created in newer sessions or templates and merge those into older sessions which were built before the new mapping functionality existed. We'll also take a look at a few creative ways to structure maps and leverage the Y-axis of the Joystick module for high resolution control of effects sends. First, Open the session you've been working on which contains all of your current Custom Maps. Under Settings > System > Auto-Load From Titles And Sessions - untick Clear Custom Knob Maps When Session Data Clears. Now, open one of your previous sessions which obviously wouldn't contain the new maps you've recently created. Once open, simply perform a Save or Save As on your session and the Custom Maps have now also been associated with this session.

Cinematic Room Professional Map And a working repository of Custom Map XML files to play with: Custom Map Files Hi Jeff, thank you for the great ongoing tips and help. How do I bring your .xml custom maps into one of my sessions? (S6, PT 2021.7) Lee |

Re: Merging Custom Map Data into Older Sessions
Greetings,
Glad you are enjoying the tips. Here's a few different ways you can leverage the maps. (1) Simply open the following session - which is a getting started Dolby Atmos for Music session I am working on -> https://www.dropbox.com/s/fboka47ci8...Start.zip?dl=0 The session file includes with it maps for Cinematic Rooms, Stratus 3D, ProSubharmonic, Slapper and others - so you can experiment with them. OR (2) Copy all of the XML files in that Custom_Maps folder to a jump drive -> connect to your Master Module then copy to the following directory: C:\Users\S6User\AppData\Roaming\Avid\Consoles\Knob Maps\ Custom Maps Repository: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/16odjiyti...4269Jaina?dl=0 Using the method outlined in the last TOD video, once you've opened the session for example, you can move the maps into any new or legacy sessions. best, Jeff |

I'm guessing I can do the same procedure, but select "do not load maps from session" to get back to where I was. But I'm hoping there is a way to do it from inside the User account that is faster than logging out?

Re: Merging Custom Map Data into Older Sessions
You can certainly opt to untick "Auto-Load custom Knob and Fader Maps From Sessions", however that doesn't purge the maps that were created from the Pro Tools session.
You can attention a given track and target the appropriate plug-in (like Cinematic Rooms Pro) and then choose Custom > Factory All to kill all maps for that plug-in. Save the session and you've purged it from memory. Jeff |

Re: S6 Tip ‘o the Day
Hey Jeff.
Thanks for posting these maps. Quick questions. Will these maps apply to the S1+Dock as well or only S6? Thanks |

Re: S6 Tip ‘o the Day
The XML files are interchangeable and can be used with EuControl - for example if you map the encoders which are adjacent to the Master Module - these could be used with the Dock encoders in EuControl. There are a few included, however most of the example maps that I discussed in the tips were specific to 4x8 for Knob Modules and Fader Maps for Fader or Channelstrip modules.
best, Jeff |
