Apps that allow import of midi control templates
I know the Moog synths and Nave support this, any other apps out there have this feature?
Comments
Are you asking about apps that allow you to load different sets of MIDI mappings so you can, for example, remap hardware MIDI controllers to different parameters en masse?
From the apps that I know:
Multiple global maps - these apps can save different mappings that you can load (typically from their settings menus):
Shoom
Fieldscaper
Soundscaper
Laplace, from v2 on, can load different MIDI mappings (pre-v2 it was a single global map)
Per-preset - these apps store MIDI mappings in each preset, with varying flexibility:
Mitosynth stores MIDI mappings on a per-preset basis, so every patch can have a different setup. Of course, if you want to change to a different control set, you have to edit the patch. And a somewhat related irritation with Mitosynth is that MIDI learn is active anytime you go into a "constant" tab, so you have to make sure to stop any CCs going to the app if you just want to make an edit to a "constant" parameter.
All apeSoft and Amazing Noises apps. MIDI mappings are stored per-preset as part of the Control Manager, but there's also a setting to disable the mapping load: "Include Control Manager in Presets".
The Control Manager is very powerful (it allows you to set per-knob LFOs, accelerometers, etc.), but the settings are mutually exclusive - if you set a per-knob LFO you can't also set a MIDI mapping. However, most other apps don't give you per-knob LFOs so you're still coming out ahead in terms of what most apps allow you to modulate.
Turning "Include Control Manager in Presets" off overrides the per-preset load so whatever control set is currently in memory is what will be used for any presets you load after changing that setting.
Patterning stores MIDI mappings per-preset but also allows you to import those settings from another preset, so you can quickly remap. Probably the most useful paradigm when only considering MIDI mapping flexibility.
Thanks a lot for your reply, the info on preset storing as alternative is very helpful!
I hadn't noticed that midi mapping system in the apesoft stuff, usually can't resist putting another lfo on something when I bring up that popup
