AUV3 app that can send Midi CC to external midi controller to program it.

Mullet

I'm looking for an AUV3 app that can send Midi CC messages via AUM to an external MIDI controller. I know desktop DAWs can do this via a MIDI track like Pro Tools or Logic Pro. I'd need to send several messages in a sequence. For example, send CC 40 with a value of 3, then CC 43 with a value of 1 and finially CC 42 with a value of 33. Is there an app that can do this?

StreamByter, Mozaic. Trigger them from other MIDI events, or by counting beats. Program them to take the correct actions. Route the output to your external device. Both have a bit of a learning curve, but have near unlimited abilities.

Here's a quickie example that sends your messages triggered by MIID note 0.

#SendSomeCC

# this mini script sends the messages you mentioned on input
# of Note 0 On on MIDI channel 1. The new messages are sent
# on channel 1. The $nn are decimal values; default is hex.

If M0 == 90 00
   send B0 $40 $3
   send B0 $43 $1
   send B0 $42 $33
End

Block   # only new send messages leave this

Actually, you can group the CCs, as

Send B0 $40 $3 $43 $1 $42 $33

Ooof. I have both and haven't been able to wrap my head around either being that they both require coding, which I have no clue about. Was hoping for something that allows you to plug in some values and bleep bloop you're good.

My sample is pretty straightforward, and actually works. There are apps that can do some of these things, but the requirements are so varied that it's hard to have an easy-to-use but general application. Whereas with StreamByter, you can make it work exactly the way you need. You need to start by defining the MIDI triggers and the desired actions. The programming is coding, but at this level it's pretty much say what you want.

All these can do what you want without scripting.

Midi Messanger - Free.
Surface Builder - GUI controls.
Loopy Pro - GUI Controls + 100's of other features. Can be used without any of the looper features.

Midi messenger is the simplest and most direct if you don't need on-screen controls such as buttons or knobs.

This is a Midi Messenger setup doing what I think you want but @uncledave is correct that Mozaic or StreamByter are far more powerful…

+1 to loopy pro. I created xy pads and sliders to edit an akai ax80 synth parameters. Quick, easy, resizable control surface creation.

Thx guys. I appreciate knowing my options - both easy and complex. It looks like MIDI messenger will be the easiest way for me to do the re-programming.

Although, it's probably not a bad idea to learn how to do the scripting bit for more advanced usage. In this case, I'm reprogramming a preset on this small and useful midi controller - https://www.brendan-power.com/MiniMidiJoy.php. I'm using it in tandem with a midi harmonica - the DM48. I'm changing the modulation values because the defaults are too much for my application.
