Arturia BeatStep / MiniLab Relative Modes - Parameter Jumps / Resolution
Hello Forum,
I'm struggling with the Arturia relative encoders and Loopy Pro. The encoders are set to Relative 1 mode (values 61-67). However, after assigning them via MIDI Learn, smooth continuous adjustments are not possible. The parameters jump drastically, with only about 12 steps available before a software fader jumps from 0 to 127. In contrast, using absolute mode provides much finer resolution, allowing for smooth control from 0 to 127.
In Ableton Live, the Relative 1 mode works perfectly with the BinOffset setting.
Currently, I’m using Absolute mode with parameter pickup, which works, but it would be much better if I could utilize the relative mode.
Has anyone encountered this issue and found a solution?
For reference, here are the sources I used for my settings:
Loopy Pro Manual:
Loopy Pro currently recognizes two relative MIDI conventions: 127/1 and 64-centered
Arturia Manual:
Relative 1:
Sends values 61-63 for negative turns and 65-67 for positive turns. Turn speed affects the parameter response.Relative 2:
Sends values 125-127 for negative turns and 1-3 for positive turns. Turn speed affects the parameter response.Relative 3:
Sends values 13-15 for negative turns and 17-19 for positive turns. Turn speed affects the parameter response.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Yeah it's an unfortunate bug that is fixed for the next release.
In the meantime my fix is to map your controller knobs to 2 widget buttons, and the two buttons will rotate a widget dial.
The dial will be your properly functionning encoder now. 🙂

(After re-reading the post, I think I could've been more clear, let me know if you need help)
Oh, great i will check this out!
I am so nervous for the next release with all the MIDI Looping Beta Videos on YouTube.
LoopyPro is already so great.
