MIDI Kinetics Forum

While I know and have used the ctlout function, I was wondering about a ctlin sort of thing where I can sense changes to the ccs. Reason is that I have scripts sending messages but not in the usual; manner.

to have MIDI feedback, the software has to send MIDI data. Then Lemur is able to receive that data by default (see chapter 9.5 in the manual and bidirectional control). You don't have to do anything special. For example, I started to create a Generic Remote Device for your Minimoog V template in Cubase so that I have feedback in Lemur whenever I change a parameter or preset in the plugin. I will post it in your thread when it's finished, but it's only for Cubase users. That's actually the main reason why I chose Cubase as my DAW because of this bidirectional control of effect and instrument plugins.

There may be other ways of MIDI feedback with standalone softsynths or other DAW's, and Lemur will display and update every change of parameters. But it's the software that needs to send (and not only receive) MIDI data. There's no need for ctlin scripts for softsynths. With hardware synths and sysex it's a different story.

Hi
As Phil said, Objects are essentially bi-directional . . .

The other approach is to use a Script executing 'On MIDI' setup for what you want to monitor . . .
