Hi,

Any MIDI controller compatible with your operating system will work with CsoundQt. You will want to choose dependign on what you need it for. Do you need keys or just many knobs?

Cheers,

Andrés

Hi,

It will definitely work. You can either use the MIDI opcodes in Csound or you can use the MIDI linking facilities in CsoundQt to link widgets to MIDI controls.

Cheers,

Andrés

hello Andres

please excuse what i am sure are very stupid questions, but i'm new to midi input in Csound....

i made a very simple instrument to test the controller (see attached),

when i run it i have the following indications in the console:

STARTING FILE

Creating options

Creating orchestra

Creating score

rtaudio: PortAudio module enabled ...

using blocking interface

rtmidi: PortMIDI module enabled

Elapsed time at end of orchestra compile: real: 0.002s, CPU: 0.003s

sorting score ...

... done

Elapsed time at end of score sort: real: 0.002s, CPU: 0.003s

3: 2- Saffire 6USB2.0 (portmidi)

PortMIDI: selected output device 2: 'nanoKONTROL2 1 CTRL' (MMSystem)

--Csound version 6.04 (double samples) Dec 8 2014

midi channel 14 using instr 1

midi channel 15 using instr 1

midi channel 16 using instr 1

0dBFS level = 1.0

0: nanoKONTROL2 1 SLIDER/KNOB (portmidi)

1: 2- Saffire 6USB2.0 (portmidi)

PortMIDI: Activated input device 0: 'nanoKONTROL2 1 SLIDER/KNOB' (MMSystem)

orch now loaded

so it would seem that the system sees the controller

in the configuration panel in Csound QT i do not have the controller as an option in MIDI input interface.

the instrument works with the widgets controlled by mouse, but does not seem to be receiving any input control signal from the controller.

it does not seem to make a difference if i disable the Use Csound MIDI modules and as you can see from the orc i tried using the ctrl7 opcode as well. 

what am i doing wrong?

thanks a lot and apologies for wasting your time with such basic issues...
