How can I assign commands to Guitarix with MIDI foot controller

Post by aki42 »

Hello all,

This is my first post from Japan(Yes I'm Japanese. Sorry for my poor English).

Recently I bought a audio interface, Steinberg UR22 mkII, and start using Guitarix for my guitar.
Everything works great with my Manjaro notebook after some tweaks.
And also I bought Behringer FCB1010 MIDI foot controller to controll Wah guitar effect of Guitarix.

To start using Guitarix with Behringer FCB1010, I read following page.
https://libremusicproduction.com/articl ... d-guitarix
The page says "Bindings can be viewed and edited by navigating to Engine > Midi Controller."
But on my guitarix, there's no entry. And I can't add any entry on it.

I'm quite new to Behringer FCB1010 and just start reading http://www.mtnsys.com/?path=faq-fcb/showfaqs.asp%3f.

My Jack connections are below.

How can I assign MIDI commands to Guitarix with FCB1010.
Please give me your advice.

Best regards,
Akihiro

Hi

Your connections looking good so far.
Guiarix use MIDI learn to connect a midi controller to a parameter. So, do a middle mouse button click on a controller in the GUI, that will pop up a little widget. Then move the Midi controller you would connect to it, the number of the Midi controller will then be visible in he little widget. Then press "Ok".
Repeat that for any connection you would do.

This connections will be stored in the MIDI Controller widget then and you could edit them, if you need.
On the road again.

It seems so, yes. By clicking with the middle mouse button on a controller, I mean, a Knob, a switch, or a selector list, any controller in the Guitarix GUI. Not, on the MIDI Controller widget you posted above, but directly in the GUI. Any widget you could control with the mouse, you could connect as well with your midi controller. Just do a middle mouse button click on the widget (knob, switch, selector, . . ) you would assign to a midi controller, and a connect widget will pop up, move your midi controller and the number will be shown in the widget, press ok then to establish the connection.

Thanks for your information.

With a middle mouse button on the Wah knob, I can see the setting.

Though I need FCB1010 configuration to work with Guitarix, thanks anyway.
I greatly appreciate your help.
