Rotary Controls for Session Box Navigation
Hey. I’m pretty new in here and already a professional 😉
Right now it seem s to me that I have to give up four buttons for the up, down, left, right navigation of a session box. But instead I would rather use one single rotary encoders.
I’m building a mapping for my Vestax VCI400 DJ Controller right now which has plenty of rotary encoders. I checked my Midi Monitor and it gives me a CC Value 1 when I move it right and a 127 when I move left. (These are “clicky” ones…so they click on each single move)
Is there a way to assign these?
Otherwise that’s going in the category of feature requests;)
Hey,
Well done for becoming a Pro so quickly! 🙂
Indeed, session box navigation controls currently only support buttons for up/down/left/right.
If you would like to use rotary encoders, this isn’t possible in Remotify at the moment.
However, if you’re feeling upto it, we do have a step by step pdf guide you can use to add this into your script. Just fire over an email and I will send it to you.
Thanks

This is possible with Bome MT. It allows you to translate midi value in to a midi note and a whole a lot more.
It’s not what you Guys are requesting here but still an option 🙂
Hi Blair,
You can do this directly inside Control Surface Studio, here are the steps:
1 Create a Session Box Navigation Mapping in your mode
2 Navigate: tracks
3 In the menu below, select: Scroll
4 Controller input: (your desired knob)
Simple 🙂
Hi Blair,
Really, Increment is for buttons, as yes it will only move the session box in 1 direction.
If you are using a rotary encoder it should probably be Absolute (velocity values 0 – 127) or Relative (1 velocity value continuously sent for left and another for right). Then you will be able to move it in either direction.
