Hey all.
I made the big mistake of looking at the back of my console and seeing MIDI ports there. This caused me to think logically and assume that they were useful. I've been beating my head against a brick wall on 2 PC systems with Ableton Live 9 and Pro Tools 10 trying to get a MIDI triggered light show happening. Is there any way to do this at all?
With Ableton I got as far as getting the notes to trigger the buttons on the console, but just for my first fixture @ DMX 10 (which is programmed 1. Red; 2. Green; 3. Blue; etc....). If I fiddle around I can get the second light @ DMX 20 (which is programmed the same, only on mem bank 2), but it just does what light 1 was doing exactly, and light 1 now sits there and does nothing.
I had a crack with Pro Tools and it's just a disaster. Send one note to the board and the first light just goes flashing like crazy. I've tried recording and that's just as unpredictable. They're just 45w RGB cans, they shouldn't be that hard.
Can anyone help?
