new control scheme (for default?) / nanokontrol #146

Open cyberboy666 opened 4 years ago

cyberboy666 commented 4 years ago

it has been suggested to me from @ParticlesIntoWaves that this would be an ideal control scheme for using recur with nanokontroller (and not needing to rely on the keypad which can be a bit hacky)

An alternative idea for the 1–8 buttons -Top row is video slots -Second row is video banks -FN+second row buttons is shader banks I realize r_e_c_u_r can do more videos and banks than this but 8x8 is the most elegant for NK2... and is still plenty of videos

on the whole i dont think it would take much to implement this.

i have a few open questions like whether we should create 'breaking changes' with the default layout or add a setting option to choose from different layout schemes...

besides that i think everything thing else will be possible by editing the mapping json

I might be biased ;-) but I'd like to see this done using the controller-specific mapping stuff I implemented for the APCKEY25. That way you could have this be the default control layout for the Nanocontrol, but keep the 'old' mapping for other controllers, and expand in future with layouts that make sense for other controllers too.
