Modul8 output cloned on desktop and knob stuff

Hi I'm new here. Recently bought Modul8.

I have two questions perhaps the more experienced users could please help me out with:

1. When I send the OUTPUT window to the second monitor/projector/screen, it leaves my desktop view. I quite like having an OUTPUT window on the desktop above the PREVIEW panel. I can get it back with ADVANCED OUTPUT then cloning the CLIP and sending that to OUTPUT 3, though I can't move the little screen that appears on the desktop. Anyone know how I can keep my output window in its original position while still have a full-screen output window for second monitor?

2. I'm getting MIDI from an Edirol PCR-300 keyboard as well as Ableton Live from another laptop. I'm mapped the one knob my brother uses for high-cut and low-cut to screen size which works quite well visually. However I'd like to screen size to return to normal when he's not fiddling with knobs as I'm often left with a huge screen size that he's zoomed in and left the knob in that position. Is there a Module that will return the master screen size to its RESET position after a few seconds of inactivity? It can even be a slow movement towards neutral. Otherwise I have to reset it each time manually.

Otherwise, I hope to meet some of you Modul8 users virtually.

Peace,

Mike

And thanks in advance for any replies.

Oh, one more thing:

Anybody know of a cool flash module that will flash briefly on every beat, perhaps linked to the master BPM? I suppose I could make something like a movie with a few frames of white on each beat and have it trigger with a layer sequencer but perhaps something simpler exists. Thanks

Well my eyes are burning from looking at each topic post until I found what I THINK I was looking for:

1. "yes, put clip1 on to output 2 and 3. main should be none. its on output>advanced."

Hope that works.

2. Used the 'LB-CC Remap' module which lets me limit a sliders value. That should work.

3. Haven't found that.

Anybody know how I can move the little OUTPUT window that appears on the desktop when going through output channels 2 and 3 in ADVANCED OUTPUT view?

I think you can move-arrange the windows before you go full screen. After that these stay fixed where you left them.
