Map "Note Repeat" to external controller

in Maschine

Hi,

I don't like to have to use two buttons on my Maschine Mikro to use the "Repeat Note" Function.

Is there a way to learn it to another controller? Most of the functions can easy be learned to my AKAI MIDIMIX, but I cannot find the "Repeat Note" function in the software.

Thank you

    To pin the menu press and hold Note Repeat then press top-button #1, the menu will stay locked but then all pads will always have Note Repeat ON — Which may or may not be desirable.

    To answer the original question: No. None of the smart-play stuff can be MIDI mapped to external 3rd party controllers (Arp, Repeat, Scales, Chords, Etc…)

    Hello,

    no you can't map that as far as I am aware. What generation of mikro do you use?

    So I guess you mean pinning note repeat so you have your hands free. As far as I could see here also unfortunately not possible on the mikro MK3.

    Actually I just want to use that function easy with one finger. On Maschine I have to press Shift&NoteRepeat - don’t like!

    Then you mean the arp function, ok, but that stays, as far as I know, after you pressed the two buttons but there is no one button switch for that.

    Well, just checked it…

    I need to press the „NoteRepeat“ Button und the pad with the sound that I want to repeat. So I need two fingers that I have to stretch.

    In Ableton you can do that with one finger, way more comfortable

    Like on the bigger maschine models, you can pin note repeat and then you stay in that mode without the need of holding a button and you can play pads and with note repeat step size and other cool stuff.
