Limit range of modulation wheel

Hi people,

I have a rather strange one...I'm playing some kontakt instrument in live performances and my Korg Pa4x aftertouch is controlling the modulation wheel. The problem i have is that it's way too sensitive and get's to 100% without much pressure. in order to get to 50% modulation i have to be extremely precise which is impossible.

is there any way to limit the range of the mod wheel in kontakt via a script? I'm using studio one v3 if that helps as well.

many thanks,
Sal

 

You don't need a script to limit the modulation depth, you can do that at the bottom of the modulation tab if you select the relevant modulation CC. CC1 for the mod wheel.

 

Thanks for the reply. I believe you mean within the instrument? If so, I can't do that as the instrument is locked for editing...any other way?

 

If you open the Modulation tab on the left, and you can see the assignment there, you can adjust the depth at the bottom.

If the instrument is locked, you're not going to be able to do anything else really.

 

Except use a multiscript to change the scaling of aftertouch, perhaps.

 

Thanks for your quick replies gents.

I've never scripted anything to be honest. Any help would be massively appreciated Mr Dragon!

 

Here's a simple multiscript that will scale the aftertouch values between Min and Max knobs:

Code:

on init
    declare ui_knob $Min (0, 127, 1)
    declare ui_knob $Max (0, 127, 1)

    $Max := 127

    make_persistent($Min)
    make_persistent($Max)
end on

on midi_in
    if ($MIDI_COMMAND = $MIDI_COMMAND_MONO_AT)
        ignore_midi
        set_midi($MIDI_CHANNEL, $MIDI_COMMAND, real_to_int(int_to_real(($Max - $Min)) * (int_to_real($MIDI_BYTE_1) / 127.0)) + $Min, $MIDI_BYTE_2)
    end if
end on

on ui_control ($Min)
    if ($Min > $Max)
       $Max := $Min
    end if
end on

on ui_control ($Max)
    if ($Max < $Min)
       $Min := $Max
    end if
end on

 

Thanks man! How the heck do you just come out with these scripts?! It's incredible stuff. Thanks again...credit to the community

 

This is all simple stuff...

 

simple stuff with experience a lot of

 

Well... This is just basic math, linear interpolation between two values. Not even highschool material
