quick quesion..

I currently have success programing my own light scenes using the virtual controller 2 software, and then triggering them in my sequencer (cubase 5) via loopBe1


This takes forever...


Am i able to to create basic light scenes such as Red on, Green on, etc. and then trigger those scenes into a sequencer (cubase) using the piano roll or record them via keyboard controller.. and then use velocity or other tools to get effctes such as fade in's speed etc. ..so basically using the virtual controller software as a VST midi instrument? does this make sense? is there anything out there that can do this for me? any help is much appreciated!! thanks!

You can only use the MIDI functions within DVC2. As you probably already know you can map a midi command to almost anything in Cubase.

You are pretty much limited to triggering and pausing scenes, selecting groups and changing the speed of scenes.

Alternatively you could use the included DLL to program your own remote, however I'm not sure if this will allow for any more functions than triggering scenes.
