Give your MIDI devices super powers: take control of the lights, messages, and communication between controllers.

Hi there 👋

I'm building libraries+apps to make life easier for musicians and engineers working with Web Audio. I'm interested in:

• Intelligent MIDI device rendering w/React+Electron
• WebAssembly integration into audio processing
• AI workflow integration
• Music composition algorithm design

super-controller's Issues

Launchkey mini MK3 support

Are there specific reasons why launchkey mini mk3 has this long control sequence? My understanding is that one of the messages is suddicient, namely [159, 12, 127] which turns DAW mode on (there are more details here: https://github.com/giezu/LaunchkeyMiniMK3) .

Also, you can switch between session and drum mode, and drum mode provides 16 more pads on channel 9 that can be controlled. Not sure if there is a need for this, but as a proof of principle I was able to make it work. Basically we can just add two more pad rows below the current ones in UI.

Linux support

Hi, nice piece of software!

However, I had troubles running it on my Linux machine (Debian 12). What are you thoughts on Linux support?

More precisely, here are my issues:

1. On Linux I have different names for the ports, for example my Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 has the following two ports:
   Launchkey Mini MK3:Launchkey Mini MK3 Launchkey Mi 20:0 and Launchkey Mini MK3:Launchkey Mini MK3 Launchkey Mi 20:1, as opposed to Launchkey Mini MK3 MIDI Port and Launchkey Mini MK3 DAW Port in the driver names. I had to adjust the names in the sources of the drivers to make it work. I guess some way to select the driver manually for the port should be useful.

2. There is a resource leakage, as Node rtMidi can't properly close unused connections: justinlatimer/node-midi#118 As a woraround I had to change polling interval to 1000 seconds. I guess the proper fix would be to create new midi.Input()/midi.Output() only when needed, not on every updatePorts().

3. I couldn't figure out how to save/restore configuration properly. Should be there some menu? I have none. I only have a suggestion to save session when I close the application, and don't see any way to restore it.

Resizeable side panels

On Linux, device names/IDs are cut off. Make side panels resizeable/hideable to fix

SuperController knowledgebase not accessable

Hey, the documentation page is currently not accessable https://help.supercontroller.net/books/setup.

Would be great if you could fix that :)

Thanks in advance

UI Didn't Show on First Startup M1

Expected Behavior

Install SC, launch SC, application window appears.

Current Behavior

"Installed the M1 app on MacBook Air M1 but then get a empty/transparant window not showing the actual application. See image below."

Windows Plateform

Hi!
I would love to be able to contribute to the application, but my working and production environment is Windows.
Would it be possible to port the application to Windows?
See you later!
