is there a way of turning midi CC from a controller into midi note messages?

Hi

thanks for the help

i cant find these virtual midi ports how do activate them?

If you're using Bome's to turn around MIDI messages from a controller, you don't map directly to the controller in the target application (Live). Remember, now Bome's is doing the talking. Bome's has virtual MIDI ports, and you want the target app to "talk to" those virtual ports instead.

i've worked it out now

the clasic version doesnt have these virtual ports

Bome's does NOT provide a virtual MIDI port driver with MIDI Translator, but they are freely available online. There are several virtual MIDI drivers available. I suggest one of the following drivers:
•Sony Virtual MIDI Router for Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP
(check out this tutorial for installation on Windows XP)
•Maple Virtual Midi Cable for Windows NT/2000/XP/Vista
•LoopBe1 for Windows 2000/XP
•MIDI Yoke for Windows NT/2000/XP
•Hubi's Loopback device for Windows 95/98/ME

Midi Yoke installs as part of Midi Ox.

Maple Midi is also a really easy, useful utility.

+1 for MIDI Yolk. I'm used to MIDI Translator Pro, didn't realize that other versions didn't have the virtual ports.

by Jove it works


happy days

I love it when a MIDI TRANSLATING PLAN COMES TOGETHER

I'll post my map when I've fine tuned it

my quick questions:

the input CC and output NOTE share the pp variable

should they all be different pp qq rr ss tt

what would happen if the drum played at the same time? or can they all be pp?



and how would i create a rule to add a some midi compression
so i don't have to bash the pads so hard. kind of velocity + 30 or something. is that possible to do? I've been doing it in live so far but it would be great if i could set up bomes to do it fro me? is it possible to add some midi velocity?

...kind of velocity + 30 or something....

Make the last byte of the message a variable
Do a logic throw against the variable that says (for instance) if qq<30 then qq=30
If you weren't really using velocity, you could also just make qq equal a single value.

I think you might need to transform qq into a temporarily stored global variable first for this to work. Like input B0 24 qq, a1=qq, if a1>30 then execute B0 24 a1. If a1<30 then execute B0 24 30. I think I remember trying this directly with the temporary variable qq, and not being able to transform qq directly within the single translator.

And yeah, you can use as many qq's or pp's as you want with multiple translators. They are temporary and only relative to the translator they're operating in.

I love Bome's though. Good stuff. Probably the single best "solution" I have ever purchased.

You're probably right.
