Hi to everybody,
I'm a new user of this mailing list; I use debian lenny and slackware on
my notebook; I'm a musician, but only since a few time I'm trying ti use
audio and musical software. I'd like - but I don't know if it's possible
- to change 'volume' of a long note while a long note is playing, as I
can do it manually changing a slider's position. I don't know how to do
it, and which software I can use. I had a look to Rosegarden, QTractor
and Muse, but I found never about.
Hi Confrey,
You want to use MIDI continuous controller #7, a.k.a. the MIDI volume
controller. I use it for exactly the purpose you describe. Basically,
however long the note is, you'll fill that length with CC #7 values
ascending or descending, as you like. Some MIDI sequencers include a
crescendo/decrescendo fill feature that does it for you.
Best,
