M-Audio Trigger Finger Controller Templates

Using a hardware controller with Stylus RMX gives you maximum controlover your groove production. You can edit, re-mix, and manipulate RMXgrooves instantly in real time. Its powerful, fun, and musically rewarding!

There are two main steps to perform in order to get started; loading the datafor the Trigger Finger, and selecting the template in Stylus RMX.

The Trigger Finger has a terrific collection of faders, knobs and drum machinestyled trigger pads. The pads make the Trigger Finger particularly usefulwhen RMX is in KIT mode.The templates we have provided take fulladvantage of these features every control is used.

STEP 1 SET UP THE TRIGGER FINGER

Make sure you have installed the hardware and software for the TriggerFinger according to M-Audio documentation.

The Trigger Finger holds sixteen controller Presets. Presets are stored withina collection of Presets called a Preset Bank (.xml extension).

We have provided a Preset Bank file that duplicates the M-Audio factorypresets in the first fifteen slots, and has the Stylus RMX preset in thesixteenth slot.

TRANSMITTING A PRESET BANK TO THE TRIGGER FINGER

IMPORTANT - This procedure will overwrite the contents of theTrigger Finger memory.

Once you have successfully transferred the Preset Bank, you willneed to recall Preset P16.

1. Launch Enigma, the Trigger Finger Editor/Librarian.

2. From the File menu, select Import Preset Bank.

3. Select the Preset Bank you wish to use.

(For example, RMX_Trigger Finger Preset Bank.xml). It is locatedin the M-Audio Trigger Finger directory, within the MIDI Learndirectory.

/SAGE/Stylus RMX/Patches/MIDI Learn/Trigger Finger/RMX_Trigger Finger Preset Bank.xml

4. Click Open.

The Editor/Librarian now shows the following:

5. Click on the Update button to send the data to the Trigger Finger.After a few seconds, the data transmission is complete.

On the Trigger Finger, recall memory P16.

(See M-Audios Editor librarian documentation for more information onhow to recall presets).

STEP 2 SET UP STYLUS RMX

Make sure you have Stylus RMX version 1.5 or above installed.

SELECTING THE CONTROLLER TEMPLATE IN RMX

From the Stylus RMX Utility menu (the button denoted with a Floppy icon),select MIDI Learn / Load Template.

Select the template Trigger Finger Part.ctl_rmx

You are ready to control Stylus RMX from the Trigger Finger.

USING RMX AND THE TRIGGER FINGER

We have provided four controller templates for RMX. Its important tounderstand the difference between them.

Trigger Finger Kit.ctl_rmx is designed for Kit mode. Confirm that yourhost track is sending to MIDI channel 1, and that Stylus RMX is set to KITCH. 1 when using this template.

Trigger Finger Part.ctl_rmx is designed to work on a single part at a time.The controls are assigned to several useful parameters on the current part.

Trigger Finger Chaos.ctl_rmx controls several Chaos parameters on asingle part.

Trigger Finger Mixer.ctl_rmx is set up so that you can control Mixer Levelfor all RMX parts via the eight knobs.

The table at the end of this document shows how the M-Audio Trigger Fingerhardware controls are mapped to RMX. Have fun exploring the amazingfeatures of Stylus RMX from your hardware controller!

CREATE AND SHARE YOUR OWN TEMPLATES

The templates we have provided are only the beginning of what you can dowith your hardware controller and Stylus RMX. Weve provided a blank tablefor you to document your own Controller Template creations. You will find itin the User Template Tools folder, which is located inside the MIDI Learndirectory on your hard drive.
