Hi folks,

I've recently bought a Volca Keys, which I'm planning on attaching to my MicroKontrol to make an analogue monster.However, the synth isnt responding to anything other than notes or velocity from the micro. As someone who doesn't speak MIDI, how do I remedy this?

hi FinnGerblast you needed to follow the info set out in the microkontrol manual on page 25 and then change the encoders and sliders to theses values
cc5 PORTAMENTO 0-127
cc40 VOICE 0-127
cc41 octave buttons 0-127
cc42 detune 0-127
cc43 VCO EG INT 0-127

if you use the editor you can ignore the 0-127 and just put the cc numbers in

Thanks folks,

It was an easy fix in the end. Both the keyboard and synth were set to channel 10 somehow, set both to 1 and, like magic its sorted!
