Luppp and footcontroller experience and tips???!

[ArneSchulz]

Hello, everyone, I want to use luppp for a performance. I need a footcontroller to work with luppp! I need four loops and four scenes! Is it possible to switch ( loop/scene) between 1,2,3,4 Loops and 1,2,3,4 scenes by using the same footcontrols? (ICON g-board?) It would be great to have two inputs and four outputs (or stereo) and a headphone for monitoring. (Roland octacapture?) As well it would be great to have a controller for vol, mute, and pan. everything should be as small as possible, could a tablet work for that purpose? Any Ideas or comments? Thanx Arne

Hi, You'd need to assign different controls to the loops and scenes, otherwise you active multiple thing (a loop on scene 2 and complete scene 1) at once.

I don't think you want that?

For per track output add "enablePerTrackOutput": 1, to luppp.prfs.

At the moment luppp isn't capable of multiple inputs and I cant say when that will happen.

March is going to see some rework of the internal audio/time engine. I'll evaluate if multiple inputs is easy to integrate.

Thanx for the interest and reply!

Is it really impossible to have two commands on one control nob? I worked a lot with abelton and there it is possible. Maybe by a script that tells which kind of action has to get started?

@ArneSchulz there is a feature comming which will allow you to script your midi actions as you want. but not ready yet. Until than you could work with the special Clip function. you assign a special clip with right click -> special and than you can trigger the action with a midi controller. if this is an option, we can talk about!

in general, your wished controller seems pretty specific and custom, it might be a good idea to built it on you own. again, if you need any input where to start, we can talk about ;)

Hi @ArneSchulz,

Yes its possible to write bindings right now with the Generic MIDI backend for Luppp: For example, a grid press event can be done by sending a note on (0x90, or 144 decimal), with a note number of 40, to track 0 scene 2, using the following snippet: https://github.com/openAVproductions/openAV-Luppp/blob/master/resources/controllers/akai_apc_mini.ctlr#L18

This is the current way to do things. What George mentions above is a new scripting backend that is in development, but not ready for real-world use.

In short, right now it is achievable to do what you're hoping to do, it just requires some effort in scripting / testing your setup. Hopefully that will become easier in future due to the CtlraScript feature.

Cheers, -Harry

@harryhaaren but he wants to use one switch to control different clips, if i understand correctly

[ArneSchulz]

Hallo everyone, I think georgkrause is right! One nob to switch between loops and scene. so I can choose in which scene I want to work in 1, 2, 3, or 4. I hit the scene / loop button again and I am in the loop mode and can choose loop 1, 2, 3 or 4. I´m a musician, guitarist and do some livelooping. for me it seems this would be the most effective way to handle livelooping with luppp. I got the idea from this guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z3H_KAHWdyw info@sonnit.co.uk. Thax for discussing this idea, it is more then I expected! I tried a lot of free loopsoftware mobius, superlooper, but I love luppp and think it has the most potential of all! greetings arne

@ArneSchulz in the video there is a knob for each track and there is no scene change as far as i see. So you would also need to use the 4 track buttons. you dont need the mode button because the first hit records, the second hit stops recording and then you can play/stop a clip. you could use this button to go through the scenes. you start at scene 1, one hit and it goes to scene 2 and so on...

I use luppp with a Roland FC200 + a Boss FS-6(to change octave in mode note). I can rec/play/stop the loops on many scenes. I can't control the scene(play/stop) because midi binding doesn't work well on my laptop, but work better on my pc. On the laptop, I had to edit the config file to can use the foot controller. it work well now.

@ArneSchulz still some questions or can i close this?

[ArneSchulz]
