How Do I Make Mix Volume Sliders Available to Midi Learn?

Post by esierka »

I have easily been able to use the 8 knobs to the left of the Kronos Screen to be recognized when using Midi Learn on a plugin on my DAW. However, no Plugin seems to recognize the mix volume sliders which I would like to map to various parameters in my DAW and plugins. Can anyone tell me how to do this? Is there a setting(s) somewhere that I am missing that need to be tweaked?

Thanks in advance for your help here.

Hi there,

Depending on the selected mode and control assign chosen, Kronos controls will send different MIDI-CC or SYSEX messages. If your DAW cannot recognize SYSEX, you could use a MIDI mapper to translate unrecognized messages into other things compatible with what your DAW expects. For example, the MIDI-OX freeware can achieve such things and be quite useful. The Kronos also offers a fully configurable EXT control mode, it all depends what you want to do.

I second what KK suggested.

Just push the control assign EXT button (under the AUDIO button).
Then everything will send CCs so you can use MIDI learn in your DAW.

Oh my goodness thank you. It was as easy as pressing the EXT button. If I ever meet you I owe a drink!

Glad to hear!
I prefer dark beers, like Michelob Amber Bock.

Of course that's a far cry from true German Hefeweizen beer...
