I recently bought an Akai Midimix USB powered Midi device and I am trying to Midi map the faders and knobs with Maschine.
How do I activate the Learn mode with the desired functions in the software?
You can find the manual HERE
The problem I've found with Maschine and MIDI mapping in the past is you have to save it (I may be wrong as it's been a long time) as a Project. And you can't open a Project in another project. If you save it as a group it doesn't remember the settings and resets. Personally I don't like it where people say read the manual. It's like the expert user who expect everyone to do it like them. Someone sending you a link to a 487 page manual - to me means they don't really want to help you. And I do find it worse if they actually know, could have easily told you, but chose not to. I feel this platform should be a place where you ask for help if you don't know and are learning and want some guidance. Unfortunately this forum is no longer like this (that's why I don't participate any longer). I use Maschine 2 (not 3) so it might be different in the newer version. To map the knobs - Click on learn under the knob (it will start flashing and say learning) and move the fader/knob on your MIDI device.
I've never tried to MIDI learn in the mixer, so I'm not sure how to do this (or if it's even possible). One alternative could be to use Maschine in another DAW as a plugin. You may be able to midi map inside the DAW.
To midi map the mixer’s volumes you have to do exactly the same thing.
You can’t midi map in the mixer, but in the same place as the knobs shown by @dmori you have to go in the GROUP tab and there you will find a LEVEL knob you can midi learn. That’s the level of that group, which therefore corresponds to the volume of that group on the mixer
