just make sure the CC's you assign for each scene are different so they don't get mixed up.Ĥ. You can use the Korg editor to assign CC's, the use the NK Studio's Scenes functionality to switch between the CC's used for transport, and the CC's used to control VST's. In this case the nanoKONTROL Studio needs to be in Assignable mode (hold down Scene and Cycle buttons, turn the nanoKONTROL Studio on to set it to assignable mode). You can get both transport control and VST learn if you use ACT, but it's one-way - so the lit buttons on the nanoKONTROL Studio won't light up to reflect the track MSR statuses within CbB. If using the nanoKONTROL 2 for ACT, it should be set to just send out CC's (While pressing and holding down the SET MARKER and CYCLE buttons, connect the USB cable from your computer to the nanoKONTROL2 and engage CC mode).ģ. My C4Mapper utility can help here (remember to use only the top 8 rotaries):Īlternatively, consider getting something like a nanoKONTROL 2 or Akai midimix to run along side it, so you can use the nK Studio for your transport, and the other controller for VSTi's via ACT Learn.

There are other options for controlling virtual instruments (i.e. by putting it into synth rack mode), and combining it with custom mapping settings in MackieControl.ini. This is true for any control surface in Mackie mode. MIDI Learn for virtual instruments isn't really an option if you're using it as a transport controller using the Mackie protocol (which is what I do). It works fine with a cable in MME mode tho.Ģ. it's a great controller.ġ. Bluetooth only works in UWP mode, which may be an issue if you've other MIDI devices that need to run in MME mode. I can't recommend it enough to be honest. I use the nanoKONTROL Studio on my dev machine pretty much daily.
