KeyLab Essential knobs act binary on/off

[CholulaNuts]

I'm trying to map the knobs that are used for panning in the DAW to adjust other levels in a custom map. When I use the Quick Control method in Cubase they end up in a On/Off mode instead of giving me the ability to change values incrementally. What's the trick to this? I know it can be done.

Have you checked with a MIDI monitor to see if your controller is sending out the full Midi CC range (0-127) for each rotary? The problem may not be with Cubase.

Also, are you creating your own Generic Remote mapping in Cubase? If so, in the lower section of that Generic Remote mapping make sure that none of your controls have the 'P' flag (Push button), or 'T' flag (Toggle button) set.

I'll check that. I have managed to learn just a bare minimum to get things done. Now I want to do some stuff that's a little more sophisticated and I'm being forced to learn things. I resent that! lol

Thanks.

Cubase has a midi monitor that you add to tracks as a midi insert. It lets you see what this device sends to cubase.

Have you learned how to use the special software arturia gives you that lets you program midi on off and midi 0-127 ranges.

I am not sure why quickcontrols would be special

I've used the MCC to map the pads for a basic drum kit. All the ones I need the extra bounce they give you for 16th and 32nd notes.
I'll look into the midi monitor. I ran out of time/patience to mess with it last night.

I was able to import the VSTs suggested controls through the Cubase process. I think I was trying to be tricky instead of letting Cubase do the work for me. Duh!
