After a long time experiencing some mouse frustration, I picked up this neat looking and compact midi unit on closeout at a local music shop here in PEI. I've managed to set up a number of functions that seem to work very well, but have run into a problem. I started on the right half of the control board, since my operating hand (right) naturally falls to that side. Put the VFO A on the right wheel - no problem. Assigned buttons for some often used functions along with sliders for others, again no problem. When I ran out of right side control I tried to add more to the left side, only to find the left side "mirrors" the right side, more or less. So, no new commands/programming of these controls worked.
This particular unit has some settings in the middle controls that appear to affect functionality among/between the left and right selections, but I've not been able to figure out how to make them independently addressable, so they don't just mirror each other. Has anyone tried and figured this out?
I went to Numark.com to try to get a detailed map of the midi output commands to figure out what settings let them work independently, but can't find such a map there. So hoping someone else has experienced this duping of functions and can tell me how to get all the controls working so I can use both sides.
A secondary issue is that some of the buttons on the right side are "seen" as activating the same function. E.G., if I assign NB2 ON/OFF to a button, another button on that side does the same thing! This is less a problem than being unable to use the left side for different functions, but would be nice to "disconnect" those as well.
Thanks!
