Korg Nanokontrol Studio Logic Pro X
Malva Ferster
Just wondering if you have successfully mapped Studiologic Numa X Piano encoders / buttons to your DAW? I contacted Studiologic and they said enabling the Numa X Piano as a DAW controller is something they would consider for a future update. In the meantime, I'm wondering if this keyboard's encoders / buttons could be be mapped to Logic using MIDI learn? I know I can use something like a Korg nanokontrol for the meantime, but it would be good to not need this extra bit of gear to add, and avoid buying in the first place.
When you say 'mapped to logic", I assume you're meaning that Studiologic will give it a menu item as a single function to map all the controllers to standard DAW functions, like many workstations/synths?
I haven't delved deeply into extensive controlling of the DAW for the Numa Piano yet, but what I can tell you is that you can already individually map with midi learn, all the front panel encoders/buttons individually. As a stage piano/controller, the functionality is upfront, meaning even if you are running onboard sounds, moving any of knobs etc will attach to a DAW function using midi learn. They seem to transmit midi simultaneously.
One of the things that appeals to me about the Numa Piano, is that other than my Kronos, it too has a joystick controller, rather than just wheels. I like being able to attach the joystick to vst x-y controllers, and the midi learn function captures them. The only thing I have to mindful to do, is to disable the mapping for pitchbend in the vst, as the x axis will simultaneous change pitch as well,
