I'm new to the MPC Live II. Loving it so far!
I'd like to be able to alter the amp env attack for *all* keygroups in a kg program via midi/qlink, so I can either automate the parameter or change it on the fly during performance.
Although using the "Learn" function in the Q-Link Edit mode will map the parameter name to a q-link knob (this gave me false hope and left me scratching my head!), turning the knob doesn't actually change the envelope parameter. Browsing the forums it seems to be impossible to map envelope parameters through the current (2.13) firmware qlink editing mode.
I'm an experienced javascript developer, with some limited experience buliding/modifying vst apps in C. I'm running Ventura on a 2021 macbook pro. Is there a way anyone has found to... I don't know... hack the MPC firmware to expose this varable to midi control? I can control these parameters with my finger on the touch screen (see attached video), and with the value knob... just not with midi/qlink. Maybe I'm naive, but it doesn't seem like it would be an impossible feat of programming to just... map this value to some other knob that I can turn while I'm in mix mode or next seq mode? Or expose it to midi control?
