Midi mapper issue

I’m experiencing an issue with my APC40 controller in TouchDesigner. The device appears in the dropdown lists for “Device In” and “Device Out” in the MIDI Device Mapper, but it doesn’t show up in the MIDI Map dialog. I’m using 2023.12000 build and Mac M1 max

Hi @rayane,

TouchDesigner does not have a MidiMap for the APC40 controller included but you can create one on the “Device” page of the Midi Mapper Dialog

Personally though I prefer to just use the Midi In CHOP without having to create a midi map.

cheers

hello Snaut,
Thank you for your reply. I understand that TD doesn’t include a MIDI map for the APC40. However, I’m unable to select the controller from the device mapping, which prevents me from even using the MIDI In CHOP.

For using the MIDI In CHOP, you can leave the MIDI Map menu set to the default ‘none’. That menu is only for using the MIDI In Map CHOP.

Using the MIDI In CHOP, you’ll get the raw MIDI channels and a lot more options in the CHOP. Then use Select CHOPs to pull out your sliders/buttons/knobs and rename them to easier to use channel names.
