📁 Original board: Elephant › Feature Wishlist

Hi every one

'm very new here , i hope everyone is doing good, I know Black magic design does not share their protocol and their is no control surface out there work in their color page except tangent, I'm not a technical guy so this is may seems naive to you, i have a hope that using MS dial with elephant software I will be able to control the sliders and curves on their color page, may be you are aware of the Midigrade software , somehow they managed to do that but it is expensive and also you need to buy Midi fighter twister which is not intuitive when using as controller for color page , as the MS dial and elephant are my last resort before giving up and return to the tedious mouse now i will be very happy to hear this can be achievable.

Hello Egami, I cant guarantee a success with what you plan to do, I think over 90% of elephant users use DAW software and not video software.
If you have chance to order the dial and return if not work for you, I think that will be great way to go.

About your private message:
You no need click on the widget to control with elephant, I think in your case something like autohotkey to move the mouse pointer to desired widget makes the trick, then just turn the dial or something like that.

PabloMartin

Oh! and sorry, but you need complete your order in the next hours, or your account will be cancelled.

this is exactly what i need , i hope it will work in Davinci Resolve but I can not get the MS dial to see if this work or not, shipping it back within the return policy period is very hard, i wish if someone can experiment this and let me know

Across this week I do a test with Davinci and back to you with some info.

hi there ,

any update ?

PabloMartin

Apologize for the delay, a little busy here launching a new software.
I test but really cant confirm if this is exactly what you need or not, really sorry but really can confirm yes this is what you need, then you order the dial and discover not.
If can pickup the dial, and in case not work for you can return the dial , then I suggest go forward.

Hi there, I just wanted to chime in as I use the software with Resolve. I can confirm all the highlighted parameters can be controlled via the dial with Elephant, as they're all mouse-cick-drag controls, so no need for midi. I've actually been recommending it to my colleagues. We've been trying to get Nob but the wait time is ridiculous & this seems to do a very elegant job.
