Hi Stephen,I usually work in small spaces, so I don't have much experience with MA remote, but one thing to consider trying is putting MAnet on its own dedicated network if it isn't already - you mentioned a lot of wifi "fuzz", so I'm not sure if you have lots of wireless traffic on one...

Looks like a good setup! I assume you're using the APC20s, Launchpad, and FaderFox via MIDI into onPC? I'm interested to hear how the APC20 works, as it looks like a good, compact controller - my only qualm would be the the 45mm faders, as I prefer a longer run when running sound; however, as...

My system has been working quite well. I decided to go with the Xkeys interface because I couldn't find a way to allow receiving multiple MIDI channels, so MIDI interfaces limit you to to 128 notes. When thinking about how the hardware would interact with the software, I saw that the 8 faders...

Yes, pressing the Xkeys is only sends a momentary signal. The way it works is by sending a macro of keystrokes (standard is [shift] + [1] through [shift] + [60], as well as [ctrl] and [alt] for the extra executor buttons above/below the faders). I haven't found a way to allow for the...

You can download Mid2Key from:http://www.tamatech.co.jp/temp/OnPC_BCF.zipIt downloads as OnPC_BCF.zip, but when you extract it, the program is called Mid2Key and has .ini and .def files with it.

After hooking up my grandMA system to a lighting system, I can say that there isn't any more lag from the xkeys than from anything else in the system. The two things to note with xkeys is that you can't have a press and release for a flash button and you can't press more than one button as a...

I didn't have success using Bome's MIDI Translator or MegaTech driver, but I did have success using Mid2Key using Windows XP. Have you tried Mid2Key with Windows 7? I would recommend giving that a shot, even if it doesn't specifically have support therefore. (Another option would be to roll...

I haven't actually hooked my control up to a running system, I have only been using it with grandMA 3D. There doesn't seem to be more lag from the Xkeys over MIDI or touch-screen control, but 3D on my MAnet is always lags, so it's difficult to tell. I'll be hooking up to a running lighting...

Xkeys Executor Button ControlIn putting together a grandMA onPC system, I looked at using an Xkeys programmable keyboard for physical control buttons. My research did not find any information on whether or not this was possible, but I managed to test it using an Xkeys XK-24 that I purchased...

Behringer BCF2000 Executor Fader/Button ControlAfter scouring the internet and trying countless options to link my Behringer BCF2000 with grandMA onPC, I have finally found something that works and wanted to share my findings, although it is a one-way communication from the BCF to onPC and not...

Hello all,I am soundlight's replacement at Bucknell University and new to Control Booth. It's good to be here, as I now feel that I have enough experience and need to be a member of a technical theatre forum. I look forward to exchanging and sharing knowledge with the masses!~Hacker
