Drum Rack
Hi All,
I’m new to Remotify, is there a mapping for the drum rack please?
Thanks Jeff
Hi Jeff,
We don’t currently have drum rack mapping available at the moment, keep an eye out in the near future though 🙂
Hi Mike,
Not yet. Do you have any specific requests related to the drum rack?
Hey Mike,
Welcome to Remotify and the community 🙂
I’m really happy to hear that you’re enjoying the P32 DJ script!
The Remotify App doesn’t provide any drum rack controls, however, how you could quickly switch between controlling multiple drum racks is by using “Device Select” mappings.
Lets take the layout of the Kuala script for the P32 DJ as an example (as you have this).
The right set of 16 pads haven’t been overwritten with any mappings so they will play the notes of whichever drum rack or instrument is selected.
Now lets say you want to be able to switch between drum racks on tracks 1,2,3 & 4
You could use 4 pads on the left set of 16 pads as “device selectors” (as drum racks are selectable in the device chain).
Create a “device select” mapping for each pad with settings like this:
Mode: 1 (unless you want to use a different mode)
Track Type: specific
Specific Track Number: 1 (this from 1 – 4 would change for each pad )
Device Chain number: 1 (ensure you set this to where the drum rack appears in your chain)
You’ll now be able to quickly switch between drum racks on different tracks and use the pads on the right to play the notes.
“3) Also… When mapping notes in a drum rack I’m more used to seeing actual notes eg C3, than numbers. From what I can see notes are numbered 1-127 like CCs is that right?”
This is correct, Remotify only displays midi values, all notes still have midi values.
I hope this helps.
Thanks
John
I totally agree mike, switching between tracks is so much simpler to manage.
I take this one step further and have each sample on its own separate track rather than inside the drum rack. The drum rack simply fires the midi to each track whenever I press them. Makes it easier to manage each sample in my opinion.
Regarding 2) changing the pad colours based on state.
If you scroll to the bottom of your “session box” mapping, you’ll see an LED Feedback box. This has 14 different “state” options which you can add colour values to.
There’s afew states which will cover your needs here
1. clip is stopped (Clip Stopped:)
2. Clip is about to play (Clip Triggered To Play:)
3. clip is playing (Clip Started:)
LED colour values for the Hercules P32 can be found in the LED forum post here: https://remotify.io/community/question/led-feedback-values
Or, import the Kuala script and copy the values set in there 🙂
Thanks
John
