Edit you images in LR using knobs and buttons

Behringer XTouch Mini Controller for Lightroom.

Hi everyone! Hope all is well with y’all! Just wanted to drop a note regarding the availability of an update for Midi2LR to version 3.0.0.11. If you haven’t upgraded yet, here’s the link:

If you’re not familiar with Midi2LR it is a piece of software that lets you use a MIDI controller to adjust the adjustment sliders in Lightroom. The above image is 1/3 of the MIDI controller that I’m using. It is a Behringer XTouch Mini. The gold labels I stuck on myself using regular stickers including the colored dots on the knobs. I’m sure y’all can do a better job labeling and coloring yours, haha. Here’s my review of the Behringer XTouch Mini.

I realize that this device may be overkill for many people but if you shoot a lot of RAW images and want a quicker way to edit those RAW files you may want to check this out. I can 100% say that I can edit my images quicker and more precisely with this MIDI controller than I could using my wireless mouse. I bet a touch screen computer with stylus would be faster and more precise but I’m not hardcore….yet.

MIDI2LR is donation ware so if you can get your hands on a compatible MIDI controller, give it try!

Midi Controller for Lightroom

Do you or would you use a midi controller? What is a midi controller? It’s a device of buttons/dials and sliders that let you control things. Originally used by musicians but has now been adapted by image editors. So with a midi controller, software like MIDI2LR and Lightroom CC, I can link a lightroom function (slider or rating, or changing panels) to a button or dial on the midi controller. I just got one, the Behringer X Touch Mini. I’ve gotten it set up and it does make my edit work faster and as I memorize what botton/dial does what it’ll get faster. If you want more info, Here’s my review. For more details on the process.
