I’m working on another video, Thx. I am working on another video, hopefully shorter, to demonstrate the learn mode and the Nektarine application application, which allows for deep mapping of plug-ins. (custom pages)

Thanks for the sub!

Thank you.

Most plug-ins don’t allow automation of a next or previous preset button, if the plug-in itself allows that control to be automated it can be assigned to a button, but again most do not.

As you click through pages you have mapped, you will see the buttons or parameters you have mapped. This functionality is chosen by you, per your preferences. Whatever controls you want to see on a page from any part of the plug-in can be added on any page.

It’s the same mode.

It's still processing in 'premiere' mode. It should become available shortly. This is a very different control surface. I've used almost every brand and cost of device available.

Thanks!

Yes. By holding the shift key and touching the data knob, you enter learn mode. You can then assign custom parameters to each of the rotary encoders and buttons. There is a separate Nektarine plug-in, which you can use also to create custom pages, but you don’t use that plug-in when you’re actually using your custom mappings. The plug-ins load as normal. I used the Nektarine app/plugin to program the last plugin I show in the video - RC 20. But as you can see in the video, I loaded the RC 20 normally to show it in the video.

This is not a mixer or interface. It does not pass audio.And it does not offer a Bluetooth connectivity only USB.

Nope. They’re for plugin functions. But maybe Nektar will create an update that allows extra controls to be added to the marker buttons. They’ve been making many changes to this device since January.

@@chevaliermusic Waiting for delivery of mine for almost a month now. My guess is there is a big demand. I do hope they will make the count button and the tempo and zoom dials assignable. These would make good in and out level level knobs for all plug-ins. What would you put under the count button, Maurice? Like your video. Clear remarks, experienced perpective, honest enthousiasm.

Update, Nektar let me know that you can actually map logic functions directly to the marker buttons. It just needs to be in marker mode when you do so.

​@@chevaliermusicThanks. Do you mean both reassigning and operating them in marker mode? I’m looking for more than a toggle option. I have the SSL controller trio, they already cover a lot of ground. The CS12 will be my plug-in specialist. I want as much basic plug-in functions as I can on that surface WITHOUT having to toggle modes, like shift or marker. A controller should be like a piano. One key, one function. That’s how we learn to operate it on touch. I wouldn’t want to be looking down all the time checking what mode I’m in - is the marker button off as I remember it to be? Oh it’s lit. Well hit it, then hit the magnifier. Ten minutes later: hey why is the plug-in redo button not working? Wait I’m not in marker mode. That’s how control surfaces get an early retirement, I suppose. My options are limited but reassigning the count button is first on the list.

@@chevaliermusic awesome! need to try it.

The rotary encoders are what make the device great. Icon actually makes a one fader device that offers the focus control. SSL does as well. But neither the level of control for plug-in manipulation that the C1S2 offers

@@chevaliermusic which icon is that one fader device which supports this ? please

I use Logic, but Cubase is next.

I wanted it to be raw. If you want to see scripted videos, there’s plenty made for this device and others - my channel will never be scripted. Plus, this video was requested by the company and by users within the 220,000 member Apple Logic Pro X Users Facebook Group I run. I made it for them, but I hope you can benefit too. Thanks for watching.

I like the off the cuffness, @chevaliermusic. It’s a good a way to present your take on a product. It’s refreshing to watch a reviewer on YT without hyperactive handgestures, loud voice overs and keep-them-glued-to-their-screen jokes.

@@62tunes thx so much. I have another upcoming video for this device. It will demonstrate the learn function and the Nektarine mapping application.

I do tons of videos on my channel - I edit them a lot - but man - if I would script a video beforehand - it would never get done, seriously....🤣
