Using MIDIBridge to control Korg MicroSAMPLER question...

Hi cubilas,

I'm not 100% sure, but I think this can be achieved with MidiBridge and the Stream Byter, but my recipe relies on the synth that is being controlled honouring the 'all notes off' message. This is because currently the Stream Byter has no intelligence for knowing which notes are currently held down.

The following ruleset can be installed in the Stream Byter on whichever port suits 

# mono mode/simple
9X = BX 7B 00 +C # all notes off
NX = XX +C # clone note on/off

I tried out the above with bs-16 and although it does do what it says, I wonder if this is really what you want. It isn't like the traditional mono mode where if you are holding down two keys and you release one, then the remaining held note starts sounding.

Also I originally tried to set it up so that once you pressed (and released) a note it stayed on until the next note was pressed which is how I ready your specification. The problem was the last note would never release, but maybe this is what you want. If so the rules would instead be:

# mono mode/sustained
9X = BX 7B 00 +C # all notes off
9X = XX +C # clone note on
8X = XX +B # block note off

So, to summarise, MidiBridge will come close to giving you what you are after, but I'm not convinced it is going to do exactly what you want.

Regards, Nic.
