GCP and Logic 9+Mainstage 2

Post by Rivermale »

Hi there, I'm a complete newbie so I'm as enthused and clueless as a pup. I'm wanting to know if anyone has had any success with programming the GCP with Logic 9, and particularly Mainstage 2.

I'm hoping to set my GCP up so that I can successfully use the looping function of mainstage. Essentially I want to be able to integrate it into a one man band type scenario where I can trigger off some backing tracks as well.

I know that everyone probably has a unique way of using it but if anyone has used this type of setup before in a similar way, I'd be rapt, and keen to know the easiest way of getting it up and running!

Ps Hey Voodoo Lab, any chance of making some kind of template like the Eleven Rack :p Jokes. I know you probably have some affiliation with digidesign.

But yeah, if anyone wants to throw a pup a bone, feel free!

The Ground Control Pro will send MIDI Program Change messages and Midi Control Change messages. You will need to see what things you can control with these message types or use something like the program MIDI Translator in order to change these messages to suit your needs.

There is a software update coming that also includes an Eleven Rack default template but there is no official release date at this time.
