Using a midi keyboard as a controller - midi notes to CC

G'day keninvic,

You will need to use the Stream Byter to remap from one type to another and create some rules. I can help you construct useful rules but I'll probably need to know a little more about what you would like to achieve.

Given the KORG is a 37 key controller, I am going to assume you want to use the keys to switch things on and off rather than using the note range to control continuous controllers in AmpliTube?

You could map the keyboard so that when you hold a note down, it issues a CC ON and when you release it issues a CC OFF. This is quite easy with a general rule:

# map note on/off to CC on/off
9X = BX X2 7F # note on to CC on
8X = BX X2 00 # note off to CC on

That may not be so useful since you might find it difficult to hold down notes on the KORG whilst playing (presumably) your guitar.

Therefore you might like to map specific keys to on or off. As an example you could map middle C to CC20 ON and the next D to CC20 OFF:

# map middleC+D to CC20 on/off
9X 3C = CC 14 7F # mid C = CC20 ON
9X 3E = CC 14 00 # D = CC20 OFF

Those are the basics of the sorts of rules you might need. You could enter rules into the Stream Byter on the KORG input (on left) and route that to AmpliTube.

This is just the basic gist of what you need. There is lots more information about using the Stream Byter in the manual (yech), the Stream Byter Guide and littered about the forum here. However, if you already know what keys you would like to mp to what CC's let me know and I will post the rules you will need.

Once the rules are in place then you can use AmpliTube MIDI learn to map the remapped keys to the AmpliTube functions you want.

Hope this helps get you started. Just post back with specific questions as needed.

Regards, Nic.
