Some people only have got a keyboard with a data
slider, e.g. the DX7
has got one, sending CC 6 (RPN-/NRPN-Controller). I once wrote an app
for the C64 converting those controllers that can't be changed by the
keyboards them self, so I was able to control any other controller for
my Atari ST, resp. hardware synth and effects.
I guess such a CC mapping manager is useful for Linux too and would
solve Louigi's problem. Unfortunately I can't help, because I can't
program for Linux, but such a task isn't something that needs much
effort to be programmed for people who are familiar with the OS and C.
I agree that RPN/NRPN could be better handled but that does not get
around the issue that NRPN #1 to Ableton Live will mean something
different to another softsynth - the uses are not registered, as such
what they do is inconsistent and was the main reason I advised clearing
the controller settings.
I can put RPN/NRPN support back into bristol but it still means the
controller needs to be reconfigured so that the NRP ID assigned to
the bristol synth controller mappings do not conflict with those used
by any other synth on the chain.
Will forward the offlist discussion and when I have better results from
some tests with Louigi we can submit a resume.
Regards, nick.
