Hi, this might be a really stupid question, but I need help regardless, so here I go!

I have Logic 7 and an M-audio midi controller (oxygen 8v2) - the oxygen has 10 controller knobs that I would love to use with the software synths in Logic 7 - can anyone give me some assistance with how to set up the controllers to modify the software synth settings (ie: cutoff / res / etc.)?

I can't seem to figure it out!

Thanks,

hello Chris,
you have two options to control the paramenters of your virtual instruments using the Oxygen 8v2;
for the first, there are many v-instr that have the 'LEARN' function,
through which you click on a paramenter, select LEARN and then move one of the Oxygen knobs,
now when you move that knob, that parameter changes accordingly;

unfortunately not all synths have this handy function, but you can get help from Enigma,
which is a free M-Audio software, with which you can configure your Oxygen to respond
to the paramenters you need.
hope this helps.

Zoze,

Thanks so much for the help, unfortunately my stupidity is still holding me back from getting this to work. I did look into Enigma, but the depth of Logic seems to be the issue. I found the "learn" functions within the prefs of Logic to setup controls for transport, etc. The issue is still finding the "learn" buttons in the v-instruments. I've gone into the controls vs. the edit to search for the learn, but it's not there.

Are there any preset enigma Oxygen 8v2 files anywhere? I searched, but no luck. It seems like not many peolpe are using logic with enigma and m-audio, it seems more for reason, etc. Am I working with the wrong software here? lol.

Is there a generic midi channel for cutoff freq. in logic that I can manually program myself? Ahh! Frustration.

Move the virtual knob then move the hardware knob. That's it !
