more than 2 Mackie extendere - CopyRon - 04-19-2024

Anybody writing script to run additional extenders?


RE: more than 2 Mackie extendere - Armando Rivera26 - 04-19-2024

[attachment=3737][attachment=3738][attachment=3739]So I am a new Mixbus 10 user, I also use Bitwig. 
On Bitwig, when adding a controller, under Mackie, It lets you add up to 4 different devices under 1 container. This allow for all 4 devices run as 1 control surface.
I'm using 4 Streamdecks xl as as a 32 tracks - full track (8 tracks per device). 
Now when I'm on Mixbus, Under Control Surfaces, the mackie set up only allows 1 device. But when I tried Tascam US-2400, it kind of worked because it is the only one that allows up to 4 devices, but a lot of elements were gone. 
Please, I would love for someone to help out. I attached some photos for some ideas.

Thank you all for your help.
OK got 4 extenders and one master control in position 5, but is it possible to extenders at 1 and 2 controller at 3 and extender at 4 and second controller at 5.
Is it possible to add second controller?
Faders don't seem to be selecting track, is that possible?

Try Changing the value on the "Extender value", but I'm not sure if that will work. One thing that I experienced, Every time a changed the master position my loop midi crashed, even closing the program didn't help, so I had to reset the pc every time it happened. 
Anyway Best of luck.
