Hi all!

Is there anyway to control Qlinks with an external midi controller with pots and switches for on/off touch control like Qlinks pots do?

Wondering have 16 pots like MPC X on an external midi pots controller.

Waiting for a positive answer!!! :-D :-D :-D

Cheers

I'm not aware of any such option, mostly because - why would you? You have Q-links. Use your Q-links. What am I missing here?

External knob control, midi learn, the ext knobs will NOT change when you change screens as the local q-links (mpc x “screen control”) do. Ext knobs are set to whatever midi cc you’ve placed in them.

I love my mpc x for this, also the first reason I hate on my mpc keys61 (second reason is no tilting screen).
