Yes. And in which app/frame-work do I program that?
Note that I am very capable of writing the code myself, it just surprises me
that many "flexible" midi-routers exist but none can fulfill these simple(?)
task. Or in the case of pd can't fulfill it reliably.
I didn't think this task would require me to write my own midi-router. (Which
I would probably name "yet another flexible midi router that is actually
flexible" or yafmrtiaf.)
Have fun,

Hi all,
I do have a question for all the midi-freaks:
I have a korg nanokontrol and would like to use it to control a mixer
(behringer ddx, not my own). For faders this works quite well, for the
mute- buttons I am stumped:
The ddx wants ctrl 104 with the channel as value to mute and ctrl 105
with the channel to unmute.
The nanokontrol can only send one controller with two different values
per button.
So I thought about making the nanokontrol send the channel as controller
and 104 as value for mute 105 for unmute. And then use a midifilter to
switch ctrl- number and value before sending it to the ddx.
And this is where the fun begins.
midish is not able to do that (at least I couldn't make it work during
one evening).
qmidiroute is not able to do that (at least I couldn't make it work
during one evening).
puredata is not able to do this. While it is easy to connect ctlin with
ctlout and switch ctrl and value, it sometimes uses the value from the
event before and I couldn't get that to work either... (If some pd crack
can give me a hint, I am very open to that, the problem seems to be that
the events are passed/handled in the wrong order.)
Is there any other easy midi-router / -filter that even thinks about
these use cases? (Note: I didn't yet try pidim...)
Thanks for your answers,
Arnold
If the matter is to swap a controller parameter with its value,
i can luckily code that now. Would the process be:
if (event_type == CONTROLLER) {
if (event_channel == channel_to_work_on) {
if (event_param == controller_to_work_on) {
swap = event_value;
event_value = event_param;
event_param = swap;
}
}
}
