I was wondering if there was some sort of SFP MIDI chart notepad maybe.
I have so many CC's going at once I am starting to see my drawbars move while I am adjusting the tempo/rate of a SpaceF Delay.
Some kind of module like the notepad, where each knob, slider, or button in Scope that is being used, could be listed. I never dreamed I would use so many CC's, buit with 2 x KS88's and the ease of SFP's assignments, well, it's easy to understand.
Scope MIDI Chart ?
how to implement midi within scope
hi fellaz Z,
Brother Jimmy seems like you've managed to master scope midi ( automation ), I can master 60 % of scope, but I haven't managed to master the most important part of it, midi automation that is, at first I thought it wasn't that important but now I'm realising that is more than important, specially for tweaking synths eg: what I miss is a forum where midi automation is discussed , If someone can gave some tips on how to start, I d give it a go as I'm starting to produce and midi automation knowledge is a must for me now,
regards

I'd suggest buying a keyboard controller w/ tons of options, i.e. buttons, faders, pedals, rotary knobs, and transport controls.
The KS88 works great for me w/ Scope. It doesn't hasve the best piano action, but it makes up with total features, especially during a performance.
Your sequencer can automate everything, but live work the more controls, the merrier.
I know of a great MIDI station if you are in Europe. It's the Oberheim MC3000's guts w/o the keyboard. This used with a great piano action keyboard, like a top shelf Fatar is the bomb. They are rare, but discontinued, as it was way ahead of the times.
A cheap alternative is the KS88, which is made for Scope. I can right click on any widget in SFP, move a knob, fader, pedal, transport control, or button, and then save it per project. It's hard to beat for control, as a matter of fact, I can't find a better suited keyboard controller for Scope. I have no need for a surface w/ faders, or anything. Plus I use 2 on the gig. It's unprecedented.

hi jimmy,
i've got an edirol usb contoller with all the knobs, faders etc
what need is some instructions on how to implement it to scope
yes I've the read the manual , but it's mainley oriented to popular sequencers such as
cubase, reason etc. If there's a section for modular, samplers etc here in planetZ
why there shouldn't be one for scope midi implementation,
regards,

Midi Charts ?
Why not use this for mixers ?
http://www.spacef-devices.com/BlackBox/ ... ct.htm#bcr
the sysex for BCR should be in the download section (as a sysex file to import in bcr).
I did that one long ago for synths:
http://www.spacef-devices.com/BlackBox/ ... iccDXD.htm
Both are still my default charts for synths and mixers.
However, not sure they are good also for other people.
What is sure is that they were made more than 2 years ago (the dxd preset longer than that) with the aim of providing a start for future devices.
Useful only if a developper wants to pre-assign CCs. otherwise, i think it is as good to let each one do his one (except special device case) : mixers: for ex, one wants to assign the AUX. Someone else don't need the aux, and want to assign filters. Another one don't care about thoise, and just want to assign an eq per channel and volumes.
etc

Brotha' Man Dubcotics,
Take a Scope synth, go to the cutoff frequency. Then right click, then move any rotary knob or fader on your Edirol. You will notice in the MIDI CC window that it is now been tagged. Just repeat this on say the resonance, decay, etc.
Once you get the hang of it, you will become addicted. You will soon see that a controller w/ more knobs and faders is crucial, at least for live work it is. I wouldn't get excited if I had to play with a sequencer, and be locked in to it's pre recorded controls. Sure you could just tweak your mix and improvise in that manner, but playing a different solo due to a spontaneous idea is where it's at 4 me. That's where changing the FX, and parameters during a gig is so rewarding. Every song becomes a challenge, and reward. No other software allows this. I have begged Tascam to add some similar features, and their reply was,.....Well doesn't Scope do that? Yeah,.......And aren't you glad they did their homework.
For instance, In Gigastudio you can use VST effects, and I always liked the Fender Rhodes being able to play dry, wet w/ verb, wah-wah, phaser, echo, etc. I could have thoses FX running, but to try and hit the bypass button to eliminate certain combinations of effects during a gig cannot be done. In Scope, it's so conveinent and easy.
Scope is a live players dream, nothing else comes close in sound or control, period.
We are so lucky these guys did their homework, while others were snoozing.
PM me w/ any details of your rig and a pic of your project. I owe it ot the members here to help, as I learned from them. But I am only good at live performance tricks. That is where my income comes from. I will be recording and mastering and hopefully my MIDI knowledge will be helpful in VDAT.
