Hi,

I'm using a "MIDI Fighter 3D" as a MIDI Controller for vMix. I tried some Activator settings and could find some color changing with settings for different controllers. But I would really like to make full use of colors and blink effects of the controller. Is it possible to implement my own "MIDI Controller Map"?

Regards
Sebastian

If you put it in the feature requests section Martin may add full support for that device.

For now, you can add the settings of your type of MIDI controller by adding a file in the folder C:\Program Files (x86)\vMix\activators.

An example is the a-generic.xml file, which is already in the folder, looking like this:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<activators>
  <activatorType displayName="Off">
    <activatorValue displayName="Off" minimum="0" maximum="0" range="false" />
  </activatorType>
  <activatorType displayName="Button LED">
    <activatorValue displayName="Default" minimum="0" maximum="127" range="false" />
  </activatorType>
  <activatorType displayName="Fader">
    <activatorValue displayName="Volume" minimum="0" maximum="127" range="true" />
  </activatorType>
</activators>


Thereby your MIDI controller shows up in the activators windows when selecting which signals to map.
