Jog Wheels relative mode

Nesso · · 5 replies

I would like to use the two jog wheels on the TEK2 as relative encoders (sending 1 when turned left and 127 when turned right). I am trying to use the Encoder Mode action block but I cannot make it work. Is there an example somehwere on how to achieve this?

Hi, TEK 2 endless potmeters are sending 14bit midi out of the box. You need to change the max value to 127 (7bit MIDI).
change the sensitivity to 100 so relative mode will send 0 and 127

Also, delete the 'repeat for' orange action block to prevent the endless mode block from reaching the maximum character limit.

Thanks for your reply. I am using the latest firmware and version of grid bit it seems like my jog wheel has some troubles keeping the setting stable. I managed to make it work a few times in relative mode, but after disconnecting and reconnecting it changes its behaviour (I believe it switches back to 14 bit). I am storing the changes in the device so I don't really know what could it be... In the editor everything seems normal

Sorry for the late reply. Could you use a MIDI monitor to check the values when you store the configuration and it works as expected? Then, after disconnecting and reconnecting the device, check the values again, what changed?
