JACK_NAME "midizap-Maschine"
JACK_PORTS 2
SYSTEM_PASSTHROUGH # pass through MCP feedback

# NOTE: At present, this controller isn't properly supported by ALSA, but it
# can be made to work in Linux with Harry van Haaren's Ctlra software. Use
# this version: https://github.com/agraef/openAV-Ctlra/tree/mapping_v1-ag
# Run ctlra_daemon -fnm alongside with midizap, and connect the ports as
# follows: Ctlra Maschine Mk3 -> midizap midi_in / midi_out -> Ardour mackie
# control in / mackie control out -> midizap midi_in2 / midi_out2 -> Ctlra
# Maschine Mk3.

# buttons as additional shift keys. These are "Caps Lock"-style keys which
# stay on until pressed again.
