Endless rotator knob support ?

I have a GRID EF44 controller. neat little controler with 4 faders and 4 endless rotator knobs with push function. The push function to start recordings works flawless with the NOTE send to BH. But I can't get the rotator knob talking to BH on CC83. I would love to scroll through songs with this rotator knob and push to start the recording. Is that even possible?

Thanx in advance..

That's not supported, but I'll put it on my wish list.

Thanks for your quick reply. So I don't have to try anymore. Looking forward to see this feature supported.
Great work Arlo.   8)

When you say "scroll through songs," do you mean change from one song to the next in a set list, or scroll through the lyrics within the selected song?

Also, what do the "endless" rotator knobs send? Do they send the same CC value over and over again, or do they send values 0-127 depending on their position?

In the new version 2024-10-18 released today, you can assign several actions to continuous controller messages, like Scroll Document and Seek Recording. Back to your original question about an endless rotator, I think you want to assign the clockwise direction to a CC message with a single value that triggers the Next Song action, and assign the counterclockwise direction to a different CC message that triggers the Previous Song action. You would need to remove any Song Selection triggers to prevent slowing down the app while selecting songs rapidly.
