Control Change bits of the three bytes are

Byte 1, nnnn is for channel 0 to 15

1011 nnnn

Byte 2, ccc cccc number of controller

0ccc cccc

Byte 3, vvv vvvv value

0vvv vvvv

It's not too hard to write a function using amidi that allows you to use
it like that

my_function interface channel controller value

my_function 0 10 7 127

It's comfortable to have a function that alows
values from -63 to 0 to 64 and
values from 0 to 127.

Unfortunately I don't have time to search my scripts for such a
function, but IIRC it wasn't hard to write it.
