How is Z3ta and Automap working out?

Hi

I'm considering buying a Novation Remote to play my z3ta. Can anyone tell me if it's possible to control the modulation amounts directly? Ie. not using MIDI CCs in the control column.

Best regards

    works fine.. well with a nocturn

    thing is that automap IS using CC's to control / change things.. also patches as well.. with the fxb / fxp thing..

    So does this mean that stuff like oscillator type, transpose and mode can't be controlled via Automap? Or that envelope to filter can't be controllede by Automap and for example velocity at the same time?

    i just changed the osc. transpose...

    errm the type
    as in wav? also I changed also via the nocturn.

    so they CAN be controlled.. I mean I did'nt see the midi learn option with those, but it did change them..

    I understand Automap uses the plugin automation to control the parameters. Therefore if you can access the automation in your DAW then Z3ta should give that parameter to Automap 3.1 to allocate to your Remote SL.

    I have just tried loading the Automap version of Zeta+ from Sonar 8 and I can acces the EG parameters directly. Presumably this is independent of the internal velocity mappings.

    However, there is no built in automap template for Z3ta+ so the prameters are mapped in the order they appear accross 13 pages without regard to the layout of the controls. Either you would need to edit the template yourself or hope someone posts a template on the Novation community website.

    I've tried doing this for Dimension Pro and have uploaded it on the website but it was a major pain to edit with so many parameters. I wouldn't fancy doing this on Z3ta + without a very large monitor!

    cal I always move the main params for ALL synths on the first few pages

    although on the noctrun there is the speed dial for patch changes.. alas that doesn't work for the custom browser that cake use for things..e.g. rapture / dp..

    I've got a Remote SL, and it came with a 3 page Zeta+ template (not a very intuitive one though, I ended up making my own). It may have been in the template package you can grab from the support site.
