Faders and knobs jumping with Arturia Keylab MK2
Posted: Wed Aug 14, 2019 3:08 am
Hi,
I've asked this question to the support team and they told me to ask on the forum.
I have bought a Keylab MK2 61 from Arturia.
The Keylab Mk2 offers 3 modes.
In Analog Lab mode, I can control the Analog Lab Instrument.
In DAW mode, I can control the tracks with the Mackie Console preset in external instruments but to control instruments and FX, I have to use the User mode of the keylab which is mapped to the keyboard (not the console).
To avoid knobs and faders jumping to absolute value, they have offered 3 Relative positions options for each knob and fader. Unfortunately, I've tried the 3 Relative options offered by the Keylab MK2 in Studio One but Studio One doesn't trigger the soft takeover and the result is that knobs and faders have a very limited range. I use Studio One as my main DAW. I've read in some Studio One forums that it might be necessary to edit the user device settings mapping file (keylab.surface.xml) but I couldn't get it to work.
Does anyone can help me with setting that up?
It's really annoying to have my knobs and faders jumping all the time and losing my preset values while doing Sound Design or recording automations. The problem occurs on MAC and PC. I've tried soft takeover with Abelton Live Lite and it works fine but I don't want to spend more Euros in a new DAW to buy Live Standard version especially after I upgraded from Studio One 3 Pro to Studio One 4 Pro....
Thanks,
Christophe
