Hello, I am hoping that Midihub can help with something I want to do. I have many hardware 80s synths that I want to use CC66 sostenuto with but none of them support it. Also, I am using a guitar controller so each string is sending a different MIDI channel, even to the same synth (Mono Mode 4). So can Midihub be set up to do something like this:
- a pipe that when it receives a controller will then send and hold CC64 for all notes being played at that time on different channels, while also
- blocking any newer incoming MIDI notes on those channels from going out the output port
Example #1 - say that I
- played a note on channel 1, another on channel two 2 and another on channel 3
- while those notes are sounding, I send a controller, say CC64 with a value 127
- at that point, the Midihub allows all that data to go through and the receiving synth will sustain those 3 notes on those 3 channels BUT
- any additional note-on commands that are sent on those channels are blocked from going out of the Midihub output port until I release the footswitch and stop sending CC64.
Example #2 - say that I
- play a three note chord on a keyboard controller, all three notes going out on a single MIDI channel, say channel 1
- while those three notes are being held down, I send a controller, say CC4 with a value 127
- at that point, I release the three keys but the Midihub does not allow the note-off (or note-on with a value of 0) commands to go out of the port, so those three notes just sustain as long as the synth envelope is programmed to
- any additional notes played are allowed through in a normal manner
The first example is hopefully more possible because it is the one that I really want. The second example is possibly more difficult but it is not as important, I only ask because it is still interesting. Thank you and kind regards, Scott Loiselle
