Resolume Forum

Hi! I didn't find anything on the forum. Does Arena support MIDI controllers with motorised faders? Does Arena send out MIDI?
Also what about endless rotaries/knobs? Do we also need MIDI out for that?

This would eliminate my biggest Arena problem - midi mapped values are making sudden jump when ...

Does that help explain it?

Yes, Joris, thanks a lot! Now I have to get the controller that supports 14bit MIDI, and hopefully be happy!

Standard MIDI message has only 128 possible values as it uses 7bit.
There are MIDI controllers that use 10bit and even 14bit (if I'm not mistaken). My question is - how to use 10/14bit MIDI controllers with Arena.

Thanks a lot Edwin! I should have looked at the parent CFreeFrameGLPlugin methods right away!
One more thing I didn't think about - my Composition size should be the same as the monitor I'm using... or at least have the same aspect ratio.

Ok i think I found the answer. Again on this forum!

I need to multiply the texture size with maxCoords width and height, so my ratio parameter finally looks like this:
glUniform1f(m_RatioLocation, ((float)maxCoords.t*Texture.Width ...

There is a 14 bit option for midi CC shortcuts.
Have you tried that?

Yes I have tried that, but i think this is not the feature I'm looking for. This is a pairing of two parameters with each other. For example on my Korg NanoKONTROL my sliders are being ...

Update: I was able to pass the screen aspect ratio in ProcessOpenGL function. There is a "Texture" variable which has Height and Width parameters. I then passed the ratio of these two numbers as another shader uniform parameter. This works, UNTIL i change the screen resolution, or output to another ...

This is the result if I'm using 1920x1080 composition...

To calculate the distance from the circle center in the shader I am using the function "distance":

Hi! I am trying to write my own FFGL plugins for Arena using examples from Resolume github repo.
It does work, I am using my own 64bit plugins on Mac.

At the moment I have the problem I can not solve. I am developing a single "circle mask" plugin, which would create a circular mask. The problem is ...

For example Novation ZeRO SL MkII supports 14bit MIDI. Does anyone use it with Arena?
