Using Your MASCHINE JAM Controller
In this chapter, we will focus on what’s happening on your MASCHINE JAM controller. By
reading this, you will learn:
▪
How to use the basic controls on your controller for navigating through the MIDI mapping
system.
▪
The list of all assignable control elements on your controller.
▪
How the various luminous elements give you some important information about their state.
To enjoy full functionality of your NI controller as a MIDI remote control, especially con-
cerning some control elements’ state and LED behavior, you need to notify your NI con-
troller about the current state of the parameter in the MIDI target. You can do this by
setting up MIDI feedback channels coming from your MIDI target back to your NI con-
troller. This way, your controller will always stay up-to-date with the current parameter
values in your target software/hardware. For more information on how to configure these
MIDI feedback channels, please refer to your target software/hardware’s documentation.
10.1 Basic Controls
This section shows you the commands available on your MASCHINE JAM controller for basic
tasks: switching between MIDI mode and MASCHINE mode, and selecting sets (Matrix Pages,
I/O and Level Pages, and Touch Strip Pages) of MIDI assignments.
All these actions can of course be performed via the Controller Editor user interface —
see chapter
for example. Nevertheless, using your NI controller instead
can be very handy in a live situation!
