Just downloaded MT last night. I would like to know if there is a way to assign multiple midi knobs to 1 knob. I apologize ahead of time if this was discussed before, please guide me to where I can find this info. I checked a few threads but I didn't feel it was exactly what I needed.

Example one Midi Channel 1 CC 24 0-127 will output Midi Channel 1 CC 25 0-127 and Midi Channel 1 CC 26 0-127. Then for the third knob may have it inverted so let say CC 24 0-127 will also map to CC 27 127-0.

Hopefully there is an easy way to this! Any help is greatly appreciated.

Alkmst,

There are many different ways to accomplish this. More than likely the most simple way would be just to 'stack' the outgoing MIDI messages together so that you're sending 2 or more outputs at the same time.

Based on your example, I came up with this translator;

Code: Select all

Translator 1: Example Inversion
Options: stop=false
Incoming: MIDI B0 18 pp 
Rules: 
  oo=pp-127
  oo=oo*-1
Outgoing: MIDI B0 19 pp B0 1A pp B0 1B oo

The one MIDI knob B0/18 is outputting two 'straigh-thru' values B0/19 and B0/1A, while also outputting B0/1B whose values is inverted via rules.

Let me know if this helps!
