The DDM4000 as MIDI controller

DIGITAL PRO MIXER DDM4000
7. The DDM4000 as MIDI controller
The DDM4000 can be used to control DJ or sequencer software
applications by converting individual mixer sections on the mixer to
MIDI controllers and assigning these to defined software functions.
The MIDI interface [76] is used to transmit the data. To connect to
the mixer, the computer requires a MIDI interface, which can be
purchased as USB alternative for a very reasonable price.

MIDI protocol

The MIDI format is used for the data transmission. Knobs and
faders send Control Change messages (CC), and push buttons
send Note messages (see Table 10.2). Access the software
settings to assign mixer controls to software functions. Most
software applications offer a learn function to make the assigning
even easier.
The MIDI transmission also works in the opposite direction. Ba-
sically, it is confined to controlling the LEDs, so that a switching
status in the software application can also be shown on the
DDM4000. In this case the DDM4000 receives CC messages
from the computer. Each LED of the DDM4000 is assigned to
a CC number (see Table 10.3). Sending the value 0 makes the
LED go out, but sending the value 1 (or any higher value) turns
on the LED.
