Keyswitch scripter for Arturia MiniLab Black

Fri Jan 08, 2021 12:36 am

Arturia MiniLab Black pad sends the following settings as follows:

Pad 1 = Note C1, Midi Ch 10
Incrementing by 1 note for each pad up to Pad 8

For Pad 9 - 16
The pads send a CC message, not a Note Message
Pad 9 = CC Midi Ch 1, CC Number 22, CC value 127
When the pad is released, the following is sent.
Pad 9 = CC Midi Ch 1, CC Number 22, CC value 0

So a value of 127 means, being pressed and a value of 0 means a pad is released.

This is the default setting for the Arturia MiniLab Black.
If you've changed from these default settings, this script will not work until you either modifiy the script to your MiniLab changes or restore the default settings to the MiniLab.

Notice that Evolution starts it's key switch at F2, so I adjust the script for that.
Now I can switch to the different drum loops from F2-E3 using the pads on my MiniLab

So I decided after reading another post here, to allow each pad to be customize to a MIDI key.
This one is pretty cool.

Okay, looks pretty good so far.
So here's the script.

Remember, this is for the Arturia MiniLab Black controller and system defaults.
If you created and are using custom settings, you either have to modify this script or just select system defaults.

Just in case of updates, I think I did make further updates from this script and included in the knobs scripts so I'll post the latest here as well.
