Hey, folks. This is my first layout designed to share, so any feedback is welcome.

The octave slider and stepper buttons only affect the controller. The midi channel slider affects all of the controls.

The mod. pitch, and volume controls are mapped to the standard CC numbers so hopefully they'll work for you without much or any configuration. There's also an X-Y control, 2 assignable knobs, and 2 assignable buttons (marked Hold and Run). Here are the CC#s:

• Mod: CC 1
• Pitch: Pitch Bend
• X Control: CC 74 (Filter Resonance)
• Y Control: CC 71 (Filter Cutoff)
• Knob 1: CC 33
• Knob 2: CC 34
• Hold Button (Toggle): CC 35 
• Run Button (Toggle): CC 36

The only thing I wanted to do that I couldn't figure out was having the hold button change the keys to work like toggles, making hold local to the layout, but I'm not sure it can be done.

Thanks!
Clif

Thanks Clif, looking good. Do you mind if I bring the Dropbox link onto this site?

But if you're uploading several layouts and want more direct access, get in touch and we'll set you up with an FTP drop box.

Rock on and congrats on your first layout!

Awesome, Clif.

I'm not sure if I never noticed there was a bug report in this, or if it was resolved... but what was happening with Hold? That's exactly what hold/latch does (or should do). Thanks!
