Simple midi note question. - Bome Forums Archive 2005

Hello

I'm new at using Bomes and couldn't find the solution for this problem:
I want to have a keystroke as incoming action and a midi note as outgoing action.
However, I need the midi note to last as long as I'm pressing the keystroke.
When I release the buttons, the midi note needs to stop.

I figured out how to send a note on, but how can I make it stop?

Thank you!

Ah great, I understand!

One last thing (I really appreciate you helping me out).

I need to translate a range of CC's directly to Midi Notes.
For example: (CC 1 until 20 need to become midi note C3 until G4).

I read this thread: viewtopic.php?t=2233 but still can't figure out how to do this.
I guess I need to use the rules for this, but I'm not sure how to start.

Probably something like this but I didn't test it. It should send a value of 7F on note on and 00 on note off.

For C3 it will send to CC1 and each half step up to the next controller.

I'm happy to help if I have time as it also helps me build my skills as I'm pretty new at this as well.

Edit (reposted because I had an obvious error. Note also in this case I probably could have used a local variable instead of a global one.
