120 / 208
Channel, Note
Channel and Note are automatically detected by clicking Find and pressing the MIDI button or moving the
fader or knob.
Value
If you would like to assign different shortcuts to different positions of a single control, such as a rotary knob,
you can tick
the Value box and specify a number between 0 and 127.
Type
For most controls that provide a linear value from 0-127 the Default setting is recommended here.
Other controls, known as Jog Wheels are continuous and only send a value for left and a value for right,
and some may even provide different values depending on how fast the wheel is turned.
For these controls, set the Type to one of the JogWheel settings.
There are four speeds of JogWheel available in vMix so that the jog wheel either controls the corresponding
Function in slow (JogWheel and JogWheel2X) or fast (JogWheel5X and JogWheel10X)
increments.
For example, setting the Type to JogWheel and setting the Function to SetMasterVolume will increase the
volume when turning the control right and lower the volume when turning the control left.
For instant replay, JogWheel MIDI controls can be assigned to the ReplayJumpFrames function to move
backwards/forwards through a replay frame by frame
or ReplayChangeSpeed to slow down playback when moving the control left, and speed up again when
moving the control right.
NOTE: Both the Shuttle and Jog Wheel controls on X-Keys controllers should be configured as
JogWheel here.
Activators - MIDI Lights and Faders
Activators can be used to activate lights, button LEDs and motorised faders in response to changes in vMix.
For example, you can assign a row of LED buttons on MIDI controller to a row of Inputs in vMix and have
them each light up when the corresponding input is live.
Activators supports most MIDI and X-Keys controllers.
