An extension for Gig Performer to utilize Novation SL-MkIII keyboard controllers. Put your keyboard into InControl mode (using the InControl button) and the extension will faciliate assignment, labeling, and coloring of the SL MkIII controls based on widgets in your Rackspace.
Disclaimer: This is a user-created extension and is not supported by Deskew Technologies. Extensions can cause unexpected behaviour in Gig Performer, and in extreme situations could cause it to crash. Please test it thoroughly before using it in any live performances!
Download the extension (library) files for either MacOS or Windows from the SL-MkIII Extension Releases page.
Mac users will need to move the libGP-SLMK3.dylib file into this folder and then restart Gig Performer:
/Users/Shared/Gig Performer/Extensions
Windows users will need to move the GP-SLMK3.dll file into this folder and then restart Gig Performer:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\Gig Performer\Extensions
When opening Gig Performer, a prompt will appear asking to confirm whether to install the extension.
For the extension to successfully communicate with your controller you must put the keyboard into InControl mode. Documentation is available in this repository describing the functionality of the extension and how to configure your Rackspaces, Songs, and Widgets to interact with the controller in the manner you would like.
A demonstration Gigfile is also provided in this repository. You should be able to load this Gigfile, see how it interacts with the controller, and look at the various widgets to see how their configurations translate into what you see on the SL MkIII. This is fully described in the documentation, but may be easier to grasp by playing with the example Gigfile.
To customize/build the extension, refer to the Gig Performer SDK GitHub page.
