How to set up OceanSwift Xbox Midi Controller

Scan and read from your DAW.

At first I stumbled here for about 10 minutes.

It's easy to understand, but first press the button of the OS in the middle.

Btn mode: In button mode, 127 is output regardless of the length of pressing, and 0 is output immediately.

Tog mode: In trigger mode, 127 will continue to be output while the button is pressed, and 0 will be output when the button is released.

Snap can set the position to return when the stick is released.

However, in the case of a putter meter that can set a minus, it is necessary to consider that amount.

In the case of Vital, Snap will not return to the center unless it is set to "0".

Flip is an inversion.

I took a video.

Parameter control

In order to control parameters such as sound source, it is necessary to first adjust the MIDI port.

I made a video of the flow until actually setting with Vital.

If you combine buttons etc., you can operate a considerable number of parameters at once.

 

 

Summary

The game controller is amazing because it can be used more than I expected.

It's much easier to use than a bad MIDI controller, depending on the application.

It is strange that there is no game controller type MIDI controller, but is it because it is compared with the controller of the game that has already been released?

I think I can do various things, so if I find something, I will write an article again.
