What are the current easy options for custom converting midi notes to CCs?
I am using an app that has an area where you can assign CCs to trigger certain sounds. There is no option for midi notes to trigger those sounds. What ways do people use to convert note messages to CC messages? Imagine for example I want a C1 on my keyboard to send a CC40, a DB to send a CC41 etc?
Comments
For me personally the easiest way would be a Mozaic script. Catch the note, and then some easy logic like a loop counting up from C1 and then send CC[base] + [count] so C1 = 0 => CC40.
Check patchstorage, maybe there is already something like that, if not hit me up via PM, I can write you something like that (but probably earlist tonight so about 10hrs from now, since I'm about to start working)
This is one matches your use case exactly. You can specify exactly which notes triggers exactly which CCs.

Of course, I could also make you something in Drambo that does it too.
StreamByter is another option. I use something similar to convert notes to PC messages for controlling Atom 2 clips:
IF M1 == $48
SND C0 M1
ELSE
IF MT != 80
SND C0 M1
END
END
NX = XX +B
This is more complicated than you need though, I haven’t got time to test at the moment but something like this should work, assuming I remember correctly that B is for CC messages:
SND B0 M1
NX = XX +B
Edit: sorry about the formatting, I need to work out how to format posts correctly!
Edit2: just re-read your request - this maps note values to the equivalent CC values so not exactly what you were asking for but might still work for you.
Yeh I second using mfxConvert. It has an approximately non-existent learning curve, no scripty stuff to worry about....
Thnx, that sounds like the best option, I'm all about minimal faffing 👍👍 cheers everyone
Does anyone know offhand if there is anything in the Midi Tools collection that does this? I already have that but am only familiar with a couple of them like Midi curve
Care to share what app we're talking about?
Feels kinda weird to limit input to CC's...
Another thought is if you are just wanting to hit something to trigger the CC then KB-1 can be set up to send specific CCs using pads. I have been using it with Atom 2 for adding new patterns when doing multi-take loops:
I am not allowed to share, u will learn soon enough though 😂
Then make that developer re-consider adding support for midi-note input LOL
Useful to know, but I was looking at this more for playing with an external keyboard
But yes, it is weird, and that's exactly what I told them. Don't worry they will add this in 1.1 update
If it's an interesting app I can always create a custom layout for my LPPro3
This reminds me that ChordPolyPad has similar functionality. Each pad can send up to 2 CC's per pad, one each for X and Y
That is exactly what these sounds are designed to be played with... I guess you - and many other ppl here - will be very very interested, yes. Wait and see, that's my last comment on the matter, this one has been kept very very quiet 😂😂
Lol, sounds almost like Bebot Pro haha....
Or a souped up version of SynthQ (It has X&Y pad per note on the onscreen keyboard).
