5. Controller Mapping

This video will walk you through the very basics of mapping a controller.

Since filming this video I have actually learned that APC-40 MKII are now available for sale again so this is available on sweetwater website. The Launchpad mini is no longer being made but i have linked a similar model below.

Hummm that's interesting, I'll do some test 😉 thanks

Also with resolume there is often multiple ways to do the same things so totally depends a bit on the way you want to use it. :)

Reason which I should have said in the video is so that I can have multiple colors map to one router as well as a number of chain effects

Hello, good video for the basics of Midi Mapping. I have a question: Why use Video Router for Color Bump? rather than putting solid color directly in the composition ? Thanks in advance.
