How to use Mod_Anyctrl ? #43

Closed Potreba closed 1 year ago

Potreba commented 1 year ago

Hi! I'm looking for ways to control IamForce with external midi controller. I'm looking for info to build Arduino / Opendeck midi controller as a footwsitch to do stuff like up/down arrow , combined down/launch_scene8, maybe expression pedal to crossfader. As far as I understand Mod_anyctrl is a module responsible for such task? Is there a way to map midi CC / note like you did with mpc.conf file?

TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

mod_anyctrl will insert your controller in the internal midi loop of your Force. If you send the correct midi message from your controller, you can simulate any button of the Force. Basically, if your want to PLAY when your press your foot controller, it must send the PLAY midi message. You can hardcode that rapidly in your Arduino source. I also did midi usb interfaces with Arduino and STM32F103 uC. Usbmidiklik.

You have to pass the usb name (use "lsusb" on the Linux command line) of your controller as a command line parameter to mod_anyctrl so it will recognize it.

# export ANYCTRL_NAME="Launchpad Pro MK3";LD_PRELOAD=/media/MSTICK/tkgl_anyctrl.so /usr/bin/FORCE

Potreba commented 1 year ago

Thanks for all info!

export ANYCTRL_NAME="Launchpad Pro MK3";LD_PRELOAD=/media/MSTICK/tkgl_anyctrl.so /usr/bin/FORCE

Should I change or add ANYCTRL_NAME="my usb controller name";LD_PRELOAD=/media/MSTICK/tkgl_anyctrl.so /usr/bin/FORCE ? And that's it? Or I should edit tkgl_anyctrl.so or anything else?

b0 52 00-7f - if I understand correctly, b0 means control change, 52 is CC#, 00 is Midi channel 01? Or its 00-7f meaning from 0 to 127? Sorry for so much questions, google didn't return anything I could decipher

TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

Yes ANYCTRL_NAME="my usb controller name". You can copy the lib to a USB key (here the name is "MSTICK").

00-7F is the range in deed. That means the third byte must be in that range

If you are using the bootstrap image, the Kikpad with the Launchpad MK3 emulation should work.

TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

check in the module script tkgl_mod_iamforce.sh https://github.com/TheKikGen/MPC-LiveXplore-bootstrap/blob/main/tkgl_bootstrap_%5BProjectData%5D/modules/mod_iamforce/tkgl_mod_iamforce.sh#L70

TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

Alternatively to tkgl_anyctrl.so, you can use mpcmapper.so.
Ex : 

LD_PRELOAD=./tkgl_mpcmapper.so ../../MPCF-306  --tkgl_iamForce --tkgl_configfile=tkgl_mpc
mapper.ini --tkgl_ctrlname="Launchpad Mini.*(KIKPAD|MIDI).*"
TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

LD_PRELOAD=./tkgl_mpcmapper.so ../MPCF-306 --tkgl_help

(MPCF-306 is the name of my local Force binary V306)

In your case, you could try : LD_PRELOAD=/media/HAKAI/tkgl_mpcmapper.so /usr/bin/FORCE --tkgl_iamForce --tkgl_configfile=tkgl_mpcmapper.ini --tkgl_ctrlname="Launchpad Mini.*(KIKPAD|MIDI).*" You need to copy tkgl_mpcmapper.so and tkgl_mpcmapper.ini from the github repository to your HAKAI sdcard. https://github.com/TheKikGen/MPCLiveXplore-libs/tree/main/src

@TheKikGen happy new year to you!

I've added anyctrl to doer_list . If I add it first, iamforce never starts (plays kikgen logo and back to mpc). I've tried editing tkgl_mod_anyctrl.sh for my test controller. I've found name of the controller by using Putty and lsusb and amidi -l. I'm confused which one to use, so I used both. I'm not a programmer, so I've copied your code into every place I think it might've work. But it didn't . I tried sending 'Play" command and it is b0 52 00-0F = 1 chan CC 82 00-127 . Nothing happens

I just pushed a correction of tkgl_anyctrl.c and its light version tkgl_anyctrl_lt.c You fill find the new library so file here : https://github.com/TheKikGen/MPCLiveXplore-libs/tree/main/src Remind: the light version is enough if you need only to map MPC/Force buttons with messages from your controller. ANYCTRL_NAME variable contains a regex pattern to match the port name (visible with a aconnect -l cmd).

@Potreba Ok. You must copy the last version of tkgl_anyctrl.so mentioned above to the tkglbootstrap[ProjectData]/lib/ directory first. Then, you can use that script version with your Remote SL controller :

I've copied files from your link above to 'lib' folder and copied code you've written above to tkgl_mod_anyctrl.sh . Still nothing works. I'm sending midi messages b0 52 00-7f - Play from SL . This is hex, right, so its CC#82.

TheKikGen commented 1 year ago

Connect with ssh :
# ssh root@<your mpc ip address>
Stop the MPC application : # systemctl stop inmusic-mpc

try manually to launch MPC with anyctrl (with the bootstrap sdcard in) :

# cd /media/TKGL_BOOTSTRAP/tkgl_bootstrap_[ProjectData]/lib
# export ANYCTRL_NAME="ReMOTE SL.*";LD_PRELOAD=./tkgl_anyctrl_lt.so /usr/bin/MPC
