Midi control in Reaper

This is a related post to a question on liveloops [url]http://www.rayzoon2.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=3897&sid=69e33d56aa0625fecfe416609c04230f[/url]

I'm trying to use some external midi control over jamstix within Reaper.
In le manual it says I can right click and assign midi controllers from the big list of supported midi mapped controls and even twiddle the hardware knobs and it should pick them.

But I can't get this to work no matter what settings I use.

The only way I can get some midi control mapping in JS to work is to use the Learn drop down box in the Reaper FX display that Jamstix is displayed in to map the controls. Twiddling the hardware the right control message pops up.

The problem is...there are only 4 controls showing in the Learn drop down box within reaper, it's missing all the ones that you see when you right click within Jamstix.

Is this a VST issue? or is there some other way to map them?

Actually it shows the same controllable parameters in Usine.

program, Power Level, Reduction and Timing, - but all the others are missing unless you right click within jamstix itself.

The three parameters you mentioned are VST automation parameters. The right-click/assign function within Jamstix deals with MIDI controllers. If the function does not pick up your controller when you move it then there is a problem with MIDI being fed to Jamstix from REAPER. Please refer to the REAPER docs for help. It is most likely the real-time monitoring that needs to be enabled in REAPER for the Jamstix track.
