Title: Note-offs not mapping
Post by Davesteb on Jan 29th, 2021, 6:42am
Midi-ox fault

I’m using midi-ox on an XP laptop,

Midi controllers – Yamaha YPP50; Akai MPK49; Kenton GPIM16; Pedmux 13;
Tone generators - Yamaha QY70; Yamaha YPP50; Robertsonics WAV Trigger
Midi interfaces - Akai MPK49; AMT e-magic

I’m setting up a map to have the YPP50 trigger sounds on the QY70. At the same time I want to have all the notes have the same velocity.
I’m using the YPP50 in split mode, this means that the Left hand split is permanently set to midi channel 2. I’ve mapped this to channel 15. Not sure how to post a grab of my map.

 

The Note on map correctly maps to channel 15 and the note on that channel sounds with the correct velocity, but the Note off continues to map to channel 2, therefore no Note off is sent to the device on channel 15 and the note there sticks. I’ve tried many things, cloning on and off on all configurations, resetting the velocity map, deleting the note off map completely, changing the order of the 2 maps, changing the -1’s (Any) for actual numbers etc etc.

Quick question. What Note Off message is not mapping
9chan key 0 (Note On with velocity = 0)  eg 90 3C 0 turning off middle C
or
8chan key vel (Note Off message) eg 80 3C 64 turning off middle C quite hard  ??

Yamaha usually use 90 key 0 so check that the range goes from 0 to 127 (-1 should be OK)
If it uses Note Off you, will need another line in your map for the channel of Note Off messages.

Let me know how you get on.

Thanks very much for the information. I had worried that them both being Yamaha devices I wouldn't be able to do what I need at all.

I eventually got it to work by entering

Chan 2 message note on 1 thru 127 map to chan 15 velocity 120 to 120.

Then another map

Chan 2 velocity 0 thru 0 map to chan 15 velocity 0 thru 0

Then I of course discovered I had to make a similar map so that the sustain pedal holds the note on that channel then releases on command

Chan 2 Ctrl value 1 64 thru 64 value 2 0 thru 127 map to Chan 15 *  *  *  *

Once I put all these three commands in the order above, it worked correctly.

On to the next problem!

Thank you again.
