Here I am explaining how to set up the Nocturn as a standard MIDI device:
http://www.renoise.c…ndpost&p=136928
I am sitting with a Nocturn unit right now, and it’s working. I’m recording parameter movements through the MIDI interface part of the automap software. But I had to do these mappings manually, in order to record automation data…This is because the automap mapping are not normal midi mappings, and not recognized by the sequencer as such. You have to work in MIDI mode in order to record movements.
Perform these steps to get MIDI CC’s up and running (you just need to do this once):
1: Configure automap server to use “Automap MIDI” as MIDI output
2: Select/enable a MIDI channel (1) that you want to work with
3: Now, the automap software should have created a CC user bank - select this bank (by hitting the “user” button)
4: In Renoise, make sure “Automap MIDI” is selected as a midi input
5: See if Renoise “midi status” (at the top right of the screen) is flashing when you turn a dial - if so, you are ready to map parameters, just like a normal MIDI controller.
PS: Since I wrote this, Renoise has gotten the ability to import and export MIDI mappings, so I’d recommend saving the mappings once you’re done - then, you can simply load/merge the mixer mapping into any song you like.
