    miniMAD + MIDI

    by therealmusician » Thu Dec 31, 2020 11:12 pm

    I currently use MadMapper, and control it from my DAW (Reason) using an external MIDI instrument --> MadMapper Driver. I use MIDI CC Key presses that I've mapped in madmapper to trigger certain sequences for my DMX LED strip group.

    One problem I have is that playing music from my computer, and then also running MadMapper on my computer creates more chances for a show to get messed up and for things to crash. I've done a few gigs where all my lights just turned off, for example.

    I don't have a miniMAD but I'm considering purchasing one if it would be a could solution to introduce stability into what I'm doing.

    Can miniMAD replace my current setup?

    MiniMad support Midi using the microModul8 USB controller for now.

    However, OSC is the way to remote-control a MiniMad.

    Check your DAW is actually capable of sending OSC, and that the MiniMad provides the features you're interested in.

    I don't think Reason supports OSC. Do you know of any 3rd party apps that might enable it?

    If you're working on Mac, you can download MadRouter on MadMapper Yourspace, which should help you to translate Midi signal to OSC.
