Assigning labels to Arturia Minilab knobs

Hi all,

I have a MOD Dwarf that I’ve been getting to know since December. I’m using an Arturia Minilab MK3 controller (and the device itself).

I know you can assign and rename labels for knobs on the MOD device, but I can’t find a way to label the knobs on the Minilab. (So they will display the label in the small screen when they are adjusted). Is this possible? If it isn’t, are there external controllers which can do this?

Many thanks

If such controllers exist then they’d require custom sysex messages for modifying these kind of settings.
I’m not aware of any such controllers, but they might be out there. They would be quite niche though.

The integration of the Minilab mk3 with Arturia Analog Lab probably does something like this, where a preset will set the labels for knobs and sliders using sysex messages.

Doing the same thing for MOD would require a custom integration. Perhaps a plugin could do this and send the correct sysex commands back to the controller. Someone would need to create such a custom plugin to be able to do this.

I can’t easily find documentation on what these messages look like.

Yeah that’s sounds way beyond my technical ability. I might just rig up something to slot over the top of the knobs instead.
