[Qtractor-devel] Warning - New kid on the block

[Will G. <wil...@mu...>]

Hi All,

I'm trying to get Qtractor talking to yoshimi, both stand-alone and as an LV2
plugin.

So far, imported MIDI files including basic Bank and Program changes seem OK,
but other CCs, in particular NRPNs seem to be ignored, although if I double
click on the track a new window opens showing them in the 'events' column all
perfectly correct.

What am I doing wrong?

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.

hi

how do you know it's being ignored?

if in doubt, place aseqdump or kmidimon at qtractor midi output and 
check that out for evidence.

I found out what the problem was. I hadn't come across any sequencer actually
sending 14 bit NRPNs. Well Yoshimi handles them now. Probably aren't many other
synths that do.

that's right, i confess :)

qtractor does have this "idiosyncrasy" to transform any (N)RPN composite 
event on input or file, be that either 7 or 14bit, into a "well formed" 
14bit one on output.
