Assigning Hardware Controls in MainStage.

Does anyone have any idea about being able to control the modulation wheel with an expression pedal? I have a M-Audio 88es and a Motif 8 Classic and I can't get the pedal to control anything but volume. When plugged in, the expression pedal overrides the volume control on my 88es, and all attempts to map the parameters in Layout have ben fruitless. I would prefer to use my left hand to adjust volume, and have the ability to modulate the sound with my foot.
M-Audio 88es, M-Audio Firewire 410, MacBook Pro, Mainstage 1.0.2 283.7, OSX 10.5.2
Thanks!

Go into Edit mode.
Select the particular channel strip that you want the Expression Pedal to control Modulation.
In the Channel Strip Inspector (lower left corner) you will see the Controller Transform section.
With the Input popup set to Expression, set the Output popup to Modulation.
That should do it for you.

How do I set up different hardware controls for different patches in mainstage?

I'm using Mainstage 3.0.4 and a Novation Impulse.
I created a concert, with the drawbar organ as my first and most important patch. I assigned the hardware controls on the Novation exactly how I wanted them, with the sliders controlling the drawbars, and the rotary controls changing the distortion, reverb, etc. It was perfect. I was happy.
Then I added a new instrument (a new patch, not a new channel or anything like that), a Wurlitzer. Once again I assigned my hardware controllers as I wanted them, and was happy with that.
When I saved the concert, and went back to my organ patch, my settings didn't stay the same, but they still work for the Wurli.
My question is this - do I have to have a new concert for each instrument patch I want to use, if I need to assign different controllers for each patch? This would be stupid! If not, what I am doing wrong, that I can only set up one set of hardware controls per concert, instead of per patch?
Thank you in advance for the help!!!

CCTM, thank you! I have a small idea what you mean, but I still can't implement it :-)
You have some fundamental choices:
A) If you want to see Drawbar Controls for organ Patches, and then have other types ( knobs/sliders etc) for other Patches, you could simply make all the screen controls you need, then assign and map them as required.
B) you could simply use drawbar screen controls only and remap them to other parameters for non-organ patches
C) You could use Smart Controls ( which will update their appearance in a 'smart' way
D) You could make your own Drawbar type controls using standard faders
The basic process in a 2 part thing:
Assign incoming MIDI messages from your controller to Screen Controls in Layout mode. This is global for concert. Per patch ( or Set or globally for the Concert) you then map the Screen Controls to parameters for each patch as needed.
Smart Control MIDI assignment is done in the Assignments and Mappings pane

Main Stage_Learning Hardware Controls

Adored Readers,
                          Am trying to configure Main Stage to respond to/"learn" hardware controls on a Roland RD-300 keyboard. (Nothing fancy, just assigning next/previous buttons.) Have followed all manual/guide/help instructions but am getting nowhere. I'm assuming this is because the keyboard is not recognized by MainStage on some level (if so, I don't know what). Software for the Roland is installed but perhaps there is some way to assign/activate the info? Many Thanks in advance for all replies!
                                                                             -Charlie

CCTM
              My thanks to you. I'd thought that to be the case but now this is confirmed. Thanks again!

How can one change the channel of a screen control within Mainstage?

The issue that I'm having is that some 3rd party apps (Dimension Pro in particular) seem to receive Sustain (64) messages on only Midi Channel 1
I'm using a multi zone controller, with sounds set in MainStage to respond to different channels. I've got it all working well except . . Dimension Pro won't "see" a controller message if it's sent from any channel other than channel 1.
I was even having the same problem with certain sounds in Kontakt.
So the question is . . how can one shift the channel of these messages over to channel 1?
Better question, how can I get Dimension Pro to respond to a controller on a channel other than 1, but I suspect this is not the forum for such questions!
Thanks in advance,
Mark

Axiom 61 (2nd gen) keyboard controller

You may be able to achieve the desired results by a different method. I have an Axiom, but I don't assign zones in it. I just send one zone to Mainstage and handle it all there. You can layer and or split a practically unlimited number of instruments and assign screen controls easily. You probably want to set up all screen controls at the concert level in layout mode. You can later override concert mapping in individaul patches if you want. For instance, you could use an expression pedal for volume(7) on one patch and for modulation(1) on another patch. You can send that control to one instument channel strip or you can choose to send to all. To do this, select a screen control in edit mode. In the screen control inspector, check the overide concert mapping box. You will then see two additional tabs-mappings and unmapped. Select the mappings tab. In the mapping list, double-click "Unmapped". You can the map the screen control to any single instrument channel strip in this list or send to all. Select one and then choose a mapping destination. If you want to map expression to one instrument and not others there's another way. Select an instrument channel strip, then selct MIDI input in the software channel strip inspector. Check the filter expression box. This instument will now not respond to expression, but the other intruments in this patch will. You can filter some other events on this page. The layer editor tab allows you full control ol splits and layering options of all your instruments in this patch. Hope this helps.

Assign Access Control HTTP 404

The assign access control throws the http 404 error when i try to provision from shared services. It however works from workspace. Is this a known issue on 11.1.2.2? If there are any ways to make it work, Please post.

Its the same when I try from both port 28080 and 9000.So are you running the embedded http server on port 9000? if not and you are using OHS then try accessing Shared Services through that port e.g. http://<sharedservices>:19000/interop/index.jsp
Actually I am not sure that matters with HFM and you can go direct through 28080 or 19000, worth a try, if not maybe it just needs registering again as Pablo said.

Various FM areas are assigned to controlling area

Dear Sir,
While uploading budget throufh KP06 the error is coming :
Various FM areas are assigned to controlling area 6000
     Message no. F6097
Kindly suggest
Regards
Raj

Hello Raj,
There are many different reasons/options:
1) If you are on EA-PS package 200 you can try note 723605 to avoid the error message.
2) If you are not on EA-PS 200 (application release 4.7) the reason of the message F6097 is the following:
If for example Fund was activated in Customizing of Public Sector Management, it is not possible to assigned an company code to an controlling area, that is not FM relevant.
Please check if it is one assignment available. It can be field fund or the others available in the following SPRO settings:
SPRO -> Public Sector Management -> General Settings for Public Sector Management -> Basic Settings: Account Assignment Elements -> Activate Account Assignment Elements
Please check if you have activated Fund or Functional Area or Grant or Funded Program there.
How could you solve this problem: Please deactivate the fund (or the one that was active) temporary. Then assign FM area to Controlling Area. Then activate the fund again.
3) Please notice, the standard is the following:
COarea CCCC
       > CompCode 0001     > FMarea FFFF
       > CompCode 0002     > FMarea FFFF
       > CompCode NNNN     > FMarea FFFF
All CompCodes, assigned to the same CO area have to be assigned the same FMarea. This is not so in your case. Because different local currencies in the assigned CompCodes you assigned FM areas with
corresponding currencies. Result: The assignment COarea < > FMarea (via the CompCodes) is not ambiguity. This is what the error message of KP06 is saying (note 908908).
If you want change the currency settings in CompCodes to assign only one FMarea to all CompCodes maybe you have to covert the existing transaction data, too (see notes 89531 and 39919).
But I found a modification note 779180 it meets your assignments.
Please check that. Maybe it have to be extend that KP06 will work also then. I'm not sure if it will also work if you assign these CompCodes to the same COarea.
4) The relation between FM-area and CO-area can only be 1 to n. Because there is no direct relation between FM- and CO-area, you have to check the relations between the assigned company codes to FM- and CO-area. Please read the doumentation under the path:
Public Sector Management -> Funds Management -> Master Data -> Enterprise Structure - Organizational Units -> Organizational Structures - Assignments.
I hope it helps to resolve your issue.
Kind Regards,
Vanessa.

"Assign Access Control" returns error for essbase apps in shared services

Hello,
I installed and configured Oracle EPM 11.1.2 (Foundation, Essbase, Planning, Reporting&Analysis):
OS: Windows Server 2008 Sp2 (32bit)
Default Installation with default ports,

no clustering
EPM System Diagnostic says that everything is OK.
Now I want to assign filter access for an essbase database in the Shared Services.
Starting the menu item "Assign Access Control" in Shared Services returns the following error:

Can anybody help ???

Hello,
here's what I found out so far:
I get the error if I start the shared services console via the URL "http://servername:port/interop/index.jsp" and then select the "assign access control" for an essbase database.
If I start the shared services console via the workspace everything works fine.
Does anybody know what to do so that it also works if I start the shared services console via URL?
best regards,
Nicole

John,
I tried the refresh button and nothing appears. I have created a group and gave it filter access. Now I'm trying to attach that filter to the group.
Appreciate your help.Can we replace backup .sec file for shared services?
For example: In planning if the .sec file corrupted then we replaced with old .sec file...rite...the same way can we do it in shared services?
I know if we replace the old sec in planning...it will take old securities only...

Assign Acces Control Error

Hi Gurus,
When I'm trying to provision users by Assign Access Control from shared service. I get the following error.
Not Found
The requested URL /workspace/security/bpm/launcher.asp was not found on this server.
Thanks
-Neeraj

I am not sure if I have the exact issue; however, I also run into an issue in Shared Services occassionally when I try to work on Access Control. If I log into Workspace, then Shared Services appears to work just fine. Environment is 9.3.1. It doesn't happen all the time so I haven't really put much effort into figuring it out yet.
Not sure if that helps add anything to the conversation or not ....
