Hi I would like to to have a button or two or 10 where I can fire a few Midi commands. A button can be programmed before with one or a whole bunch of Midi commands.

With this little Midi device I could control e. G. My Hardware devices. My FX machine fire a program change #78 or a synthesizer k5000 e. G. Midi channel 5 bank 4 program number 96.

Each Button can be named. And the whole device can be named so it could be used as a group.
The type of command can be easily selected for none programmer persons

Guitar players could use this as a floorboard substitute. Means easy programming of there real floorboard, they fire from their hardware floorboard one command into scopes new Midi device e. G. Program changes #34 and the new Midi button is translating this into a preprogrammed bunch of Midi commands, e. G. Preamp program change #5 on Midi channel 7 and FX machine program change #65 on Midi channel 3 and a program change on Midi channel 9 to a scope mixer number 3 to set the mixer into recording mode. The button can use scopes Midi learn function for remote control.

This device could also be used to recall stacked synthesizer sounds, e. G. 3 or 4 scope synth or external synths recall presets as one sound with one button in your project. Or combinations of synthesizer mixer and FX settings to experiment with different stacksounds.

The possibilities are endless.

The device could have 2 or more programmable Midi inputs and outputs.

The device could be dynamic, adding buttons or killing and build them into groups or ungroup them again. . Colorize the way you want and having a good overview.

If you need a graphic designer, ask me.

Im not a programmer, Im a musican, I can play several instruments, but no I dont know how to make it dynamic. Maybe it is good enough to have a set of dev.modules e.g. 5 Buttons or 10 Buttons, I guess this is the easy way.

Hi, Dragon !

I hope you feel fine and have good succes with Scope development !
I imagine you are working on some Scope devices and by reading your posts on Z, I guess they are going to be unique and special !

I also hope you found a solution to all the issues with your device development and SDK...

Do you know when we, poor Scope users, will discover the result of your hard work ? On what kind of device are you working on ? You don't have to answer if you prefer to surprise us ! :D

I'm impatient to try that ! :)

Cheers !

Hi, a bit late to reply but for midi, an easy way to handle MPE

looking forward to the new devices

Excellent idea as MPE is really starting to mature.
Not into the Roli stuff, but Continuum and Lin are grabbing my attention.

Looks great!
Can you give me an example of how I would use this ?
What's it's purpose?
Sorry but I'm not familiar with CV stuff.
Just wondering if there's a use for me in my setup that I might overlook.
Thanks and keep up the great work.

Looks very interesting, and thanks for the example use. I look forward to trying this out, and congrats on your first device. :)

Wow, DragonSF, great device!

Is there any filtering or interpolation to smooth 7bit MIDI to 32bit CV?

Thanks for the explanation but I'm still puzzled.
I understand cc assignments so what's the difference when you use midi in, on a synth and assign cc's normally under scope.
Is this for modular?
Or are these sdk modules for developers?
Sorry for my ignorance.

Ok got it!
So with this module could you not implement something in a mixer to maybe have osc
Hui, Mackie control for scope?
Just a thought
Thanks for your efforts in keeping the platform alive with new modules, ideas.

Wow, that midi in idea deserves a device, that's HUGE. No need for routing through a DAW just to get midi into scope anymore!!

I can do that. But you'll always have a step, because there is no in-between state. Value is either 54 or 55, but never 54.6. On the other side, if you have an idea, I'm open to suggestions. Another way would be using 14-bit (N)RPN input. I can do that too.
But when you convert midi --> CV a lot of values can be added between 2 CC values, no ?
On the other way, I understand there is no reason... :D

Have a look at Expert sleepers Silent Way : a collection of vst's that generate audio rate modulation signal you can use inside Scope via asio. And you'll use digital CV signals ! No more midi jitter ! Amazing possibilities !

Dragon !
The ext. midiinput looks really useful ! I hope you'll release it as a module...!
When I load it into my Xite, I don't have any gui ! .... .... I guess you are still working on it ...
