<!-- MCU MIDI Mapping for Arturia Keylab 49/61/88 mk2 in "Analog Lab" mode. -->
<!--
11/11/25 Binding MIDI Map Template v1 - contributed by ardour@iokm.uk
Intended for use with Arturia Keylab 49/61/88 mk2 in "Analog Lab" mode with DAW Map = MCU
This template maps controllers and buttons for Editing & Mixing and not
for SoftSynth parameter control. However, modify as required.
The following Keylab 49/61/88 mk2 controllers & buttons are mapped in this template:
* 16x Pad cluster (all 16x Pads work; none assigned in this template)
* DAW Command cluster (all 10x buttons work and assigned)
* Transport cluster (all 6x buttons work and assigned)
* Middle Analog Lab cluster (all 4x buttons & knob push/rotate work and assigned)
* Bank change cluster (all 3x buttons work and assigned)
* Encoders & Faders cluster (all 9x sets of Encoders & Faders work and assigned)
* Select toggles row (Ardour limitation can only be assigned to "Actions" or "Functions")
*NOTE: The MIDI bindings for "Select" toggles do match MIDI events but uri="/route/mute B1"
won't work with msg="" being an Ardour limitation - can only be assigned to "Actions" or
"Functions". Would have preferred to use "Select" toggles for corresponding Mute/Solo but
unable; to not waste the use of "Select" toggles currently mapped to trigger cues A to I.
* Sustain Pedal (works and assigned)
Keylab 49/61/88 mk2 has three modes:
* "Analog Lab" default (hardcoded controller codes).
Provides access to nearly all the controllers & buttons (total of 69): Pads, Transport,
DAW, Analog Lab, Encoders & Faders. Some controllers like the "Select" buttons toggles
have non-standard MIDI events which are difficult or impossible to bind to some Ardour
actions. This Binding MIDI Map Template supports Keylab "Audio Lab" mode.
* "DAW" (hardcoded controller codes are mostly Note/Pitch Blend events)
Different to "Analog Lab" mode. Provides access to most (62) of the controllers & buttons
except for the middle Analog Lab cluster. Similar limitations as "Analog Lab" mode where
many controllers like Faders send non-standard MIDI events like Note On/Off with Pitch Blend
events which are difficult or impossible to bind to Ardour actions.
*NOTE: this version of Binding MIDI Map Template doesn't support Keylab "DAW" mode.
* "USER" (different controller codes but can with effort be user assigned/reassigned)
A flexible and more MIDI standard event mode. Provides access to many (59) of the
controllers & buttons except for the bank selection and middle Analog Lab cluster.
Although the controllers & buttons events are more MIDI standard they have different
default controller codes to what is hardcoded in the "Analog Lab" or "DAW" modes. The
majority of the controllers & buttons can be user assigned/reassigned; however, doing so
requires significant time & effort. Currently within Linux there is no easy way to
download/export the assigned/reassigned user configuration from the Keylab 49/61/88 mk2.
*NOTE: this version of Binding MIDI Map Template doesn't support Keylab "USER" mode.
Arturia MIDI Control Center doesn't support Linux; you can set the DAW map to MCU via SysEx Controls:
https://github.com/soyersoyer/sysex-controls (Thank you, Gergo Koteles).
For reasons only known to Arturia, command events are split between a DAW port and a MIDI port.
Dir Device Name
IO hw:3,0,0 KeyLab mkII 61 MIDI
IO hw:3,0,1 KeyLab mkII 61 DAW
Transport and DAW events are only via the DAW port using "channel 1". Encoders & Faders are only
via the MIDI port using "channel 1" which is ALSO THE DEFAULT PIANO KEYBOARD CHANNEL and will
CONFLICT IF THE PIANO KEYBOARD IS NOT CHANGED to a midi channel 2-9, 11-16 !! Pads are Channel 10.
To be able to use Transport + DAW commands + Encoders & Faders at the same time - the DAW port *and*
MIDI port need to be both connected to Ardour's "MIDI Control In" port. This can be achieved via
Ardour's MIDI Connection Manager by connecting both Hardware MIDI ports to "Generic MIDI Control In".
Or via a JACK/Pipewire virtual patchbay like qpwgraph. https://github.com/rncbc/qpwgraph
To get everything to work Ardour + qpwgraph + SysEx Controls + Keylab the configuration needs to be:
* Ardour MIDI and Control Surface configuration: [Setup Control Surface]
==================================================
MIDI Port Config
Keylab MIDI: Music Data + Control Data + Follow Selection
Keylab DAW: Control Data
Control Surfaces (Generic MIDI)
Incoming MIDI = Keylab DAW
Outgoing MIDI = KeyLab DAW
Current Bank = 1
Enable Feedback = Y
Smoothing = 10
* Ardour's MIDI Connection Manager (Option 1): [Bridge MIDI & DAW Controllers to MIDI Control In]
==================================================
Hardware Tab vs. Ardour Misc Tab
Midi-Bridge->MIDI X
Midi-Bridge->DAW X
Generic MIDI Control In
<-Control Surface
* qpwgraph virtual patchbay config (Option 2): [Bridge MIDI & DAW Controllers to MIDI Control In]
==================================================
+================+ +=================+
| Midi-Bridge | | ardour |
| | | |
| KeyLab MIDI +==========+ |
| | | MIDI Control In |
| Keylab DAW +==========+ |
+================+ +=================+
* SysEx Controls (Keylab) configuration: [Setup Keylab Controllers]
==================================================
User MIDI Channel = 2 (Sometimes need to set this via Keylab Piano Keyboard)
DAW Map = Default MCU
DAW Buttons = DAW
Track Control Buttons = Single Track
DAW Fader Mode = Jump
USER Fader Mode = Jump
* KeyLab Piano Keyboard MIDI Channel configuration: [Avoid Controllers conflicting with Keyboard]
==================================================
Piano Keyboard MIDI Channel = Anything other than 1 or 10 !!
[ Set by Keylab MIDI Channel button & associated Piano key ]
* Channel 1 = Transport (Notes) + DAW (Notes) + Encoders & Faders (Controllers)
* Channel 10 = Default Percussion (Notes)
* Channel 2-9, 11-16 = Piano Keyboard (Notes)
*NOTE: Some SoftSynths like "General Midi Synth" as default have instruments on all 16 MIDI
channels. So you'll hear something out of the box. Whereas, SoftSynths like "ZynAddSybFX"
default to MIDI channel 1 unless configured otherwise. So if you don't hear anything check
that an instrument has been assigned to whatever MIDI Channel defined for the Piano Keyboard.
