I love the Rig Manager in general and thought I understood the concept of it, but there is a certain behavior creating issues for me. What I do a lot in my rackspaces is using “Note on” as a trigger for widgets (to activate/deactivate layers, transpose etc) That way I´m able to control a lot of th…

If I am following correctly,…maybe an option to “Map All Keyboard Controller Notes as Controller Aliases”(?) And then maybe show that on a separate page (or underneath other controller aliases) so it doesn’t clog up the controller alias page..(?) [You would have to deal with the fact that Yamaha (…

@Beatlab I do not understand why that is an issue? Because of manual work? How many Note Messages are used to control widgets?

[image] Beatlab: Wouldn´t it make a lot of sense to also replce these triggers automatically when using a different rig? What about this situation: 2 Keyboards used. For the upper Note messages are assigned to widgets Now both Keaboards are replaced by different Keyboards. How should the …

[image] pianopaul: I do not understand why that is an issue? Because it doesn´t behave like I would expect. (I assume most people would expect like me that every Key would work after switching the Rig, no matter if you´re playing a VSTi or controlling a widget with your keys) And yes, becau…

[image] Beatlab: Rig Manager - Bug or feature It’s a feature :slight_smile: [image] Beatlab: So GP knows exactly what to replace with which controller. It´s exactly the same for your midi In Blocks. Not really - because you’re not actually learning notes when you’re just receiving th…

[image] dhj: It’s a feature :slight_smile: So what is the advantage of “not considering” this kind of “learned” Midi Inputs? Or the other way around what would be the disadvantage of considering these when switching Rigs?

What I meant was that the ability to map a note to an alias is a feature. Whether it’s a good idea to map all notes automatically is something we would have to investigate. I realize it sounds easy but please consider: How many would benefit What’s the impact on performance How important is it c…

Don’t know. I guess there is a benefit to the extent it is really easy to make a trigger note an alias instead of using midi learn. On the other hand, it is pretty easy to create an alias for each note in Rig Manager yourself. On the third hand, keyboard notes are all “pre-mapped” (C1, C2, etc),…

[image] dhj: Whether it’s a good idea to map all notes automatically is something we would have to investigate. I realize it sounds easy but please consider: Fair enough… Even if this isn´t used much right now, I´m sure more and more users will see the benefits and use it in future. Mappin…

Rig Manager - Bug or feature? Note on Alias necessary?

I had the same use case a while back and manually created the NoteOn and NoteOff commands for all 88 keys. It’s been working great ever since.
