Menu configuration

As mentioned before MIDI controller is coupled with menu configuration files to translates notes into looper commands.

Default configuration is 6-4-menu

There are 5 views each with its own menu in default configuration (6X4) 6 buttons, 4 song parts:

  • navigate.ini -- control navigation between views shown below:
  • play.ini -- playing and recording of song parts and loops
  • song.ini -- saving and loading of songs
  • drum.ini -- drum configuration and parameters
  • serv.ini -- restart and other service functions

Controller configuration

One configuartion file sets MIDI note and computerer keyboard keys used by application:

  • config.ini -- restart and other service functions

There are 2 options in MIDI section:

[MIDI]

keyboard_keys -- 6 keys on computer keyboard if MIDI controller is missing

keyboard_notes -- 6 notes of MIDI foot controller pedal. Note velocity must be > 10

As an example there is alternative configuration using fewer buttons in directory : 4-2-menu
