Rave Audio Mixer / MIDI Controller / X-Touch Compact - wrong Midi Device OIDs for ABM?

  • 1.  Rave Audio Mixer / MIDI Controller / X-Touch Compact - wrong Midi Device OIDs for ABM?

    Posted 12-13-2024 12:45

    Hi,

    We recently got an X-Touch Compact MIDI controller to use with the RAVE audio mixer in our Ultra switcher. 
    By following the instructions in the Ultra 9.1 documentation, the setup in Dashboard and the X-Touch software was easy. For basic use (physical fader control), it works as it should.

    The default function for the knob at the top of each "channel strip" on the controller is to adjust balance/pan. 
    I would like to have this knob adjust the gain for the analog input on the ABM instead. According to the Midi Device OID List, this is possible by using the OID audiomixer​.ABM.1.1.gain (for analog input 1 on ABM1).

    I can't get this to work? I've adjusted the default mapping and changed the OID, as well as Min / Max values (0-60):

    But rotating the knob does not change the gain as set/viewed in the Audio Mixer - Config - ABM Input Config - Preamp.

    Could it be the naming of the OID that is wrong?
    I can confirm that the OID for ABM's phantom power and pad does not work either, when I try to map those OIDs to buttons.

    As a side note, I found a typo in the default X-TOUCH-map-005.controller file for the Audio 2 balance/pan function. It's missing a dot between "audio2" and "pan" in the OID, so that knob does not work when loading the default map layout.

    I have sent a request to technical support regarding this.

    I will update the thread if there's a solution, for future reference.
