Mapping MIDI - Where is the documentation?
Posted: 01 Apr 2019, 00:18
Hi,
I'm in the process of trying to create a complete MIDI mapping (both input and output) for a controller and I find the lack of documentation striking.
I'm not talking about the controller specs; these are well defined and available (i.e. I know what message each control sends and what it can accept to turn leds to a specific color).
Cross has a simple MIDI learning module, but has nothing to support output mappings.
I consider myself pretty technically inclined, but find the process of reverse engineering existing mappings just to get some examples mind boggling.
What I'm looking for is a complete specification of the mappings xml file with all possible valid elements and their attributes.
I would be happy to start writing such a document myself by reverse engineering and getting help from both Mixvibes support and experienced community members (FigDj comes to mind...).
Can we expect any improvement in this department for Cross 4?
This could really help Mixvibes in to getting actual added value for their product by their own users.
Regards,
Lieven
