LAYOUT: Kawai K5000 Macro Controlby ibo-kai

Question

Gold

MIDI Target Manufacturer(s): Kawai
Summary: Another tiny masterpiece from Ibo Kai! "This layout resembles the Kawai Macro Control Box, a piece of hardware, that adds certain sound control to a K5000W or K5000R, both of which lack those knobs (which were present in the K5000S only). This is purely MIDI CC and I added the Channel selector as well." The Macro Control is a Unicorn in music tech: it's very useful if you own a K5000 or a K5000R, but almost impossible to find. Enjoy this virtual version thanks to Ibo Kai!

Due to the landscape format of MD I had to slightly re-arrange the layout of the knobs, putting the 4 USER assignable knobs to the right. The rest is just like the original (from left to right): harmonics, formant filter, filter, envelope.

Enjoy!

Nice to see MD looking so different! Pretty soon we're going to implement a feature allowing you to use -- but not edit -- layouts created with the EFP without having the EFP.

By the way looking at the photo of the original box I realized I forgot to implement the "Battery Control" LED - please look at your iPad´s battery control instead ;-)

Actually, that's a feature request: to be able to see your device's battery level. It's on the list!
