MIDI Kinetics Forum

Hi,

I am new to the Lemur world and thrilled to have discovered it. I am very green with the scripting and am a little confused about how to properly execute this idea...

I want to have a series of a few buttons (functioning as a pads) send CC info and note information simultaneously when pressed down. I would like the CCs to vary among the buttons but have the note be universal and determined by a fader that spans an octave of notes... So although the buttons are sending unique CC information, the note info sent will always be whatever the fader is set to at that given moment... How would I go about this?

Any guidance or places I could go to get more information would be much appreciated, thanks!!!!

Hey,
there are different ways to do that. If it gets more complex I would suggest scripting, but if there are just some buttons you can use "custom Midi" messages.
Custom Midi is created with the little button beneath scripts.
For your note trigger you need to create 2: note on and note off (seperate as based on the midi protocol) For note on you set trigger to your button "arrow up", for note off you set it to "arrow down". For pitch you can fill in something like "60+(Fader*12)" (60 is basic C and the rest is for a fader for 1 octave with grid....)
CC is another custom midi.
Those custom Midi are relative easy to use and (nearly) selfexplaining.
so for each button you need 3 custom Midimessages: noteon, noteoff, CC.

Hope that helps
