I used the Luminite Graviton M2 to create a setlist/song/song part function that allows me to cycle through all parts of a song with a single button. This works quite well, with a few minor limitations. Only for songs with more than 10 changes do you have to split the song into two parts, and the setlists go up to 12 songs. For longer setlists, you have to split them up accordingly. I did this with the large QC, but since it runs via MIDI, it should also work with the small one.
It’s a shame that NDPS didn’t really think this through with the Mini, and above all that so many people seem to be putting up with it by claiming that it fine because the mini is just for a small target group or that you could just buy an external controller or that everyone like to make doublepress button or no one has problems with switiching banks inside one song at a live performance. People would rather tear their hair out than spend a minute thinking about whether the Mini could be supplemented with a software feature that would allow it to be used live on its own and without additional controllers.
It would be so easy with a reasonable setlist/song/sonpart function. But no one seems to be interested in it. Especially since the implementation wouldn’t be that complicated. If I can build a prototype for such a function in HTML and Java-Script in 30 minutes, it shouldn’t take a developer more than a week to program something like that, even for a more complex system. And the Mini in particular would benefit greatly from this.
Take a look here. Maybe you’ll vote for it.
