Midi Channel Octave Offset Field
Posted: Thu Mar 02, 2017 12:43 pm
I am using G-Stomper connected with 2 analogue synths. One is an Arturia Microbrute (receiving Midi on Channel 1) & the other a Dreadbox Hades (receiving on Channel 7).
The Brute quite happily responds to all notes sent and therefore makes a sound from C0 to E8. However the Hades only makes a sound from C2 to C7. Any notes lower than C2 or higher than C7 are just ignored.
According to the Hades documentation it only allows midi pitch tracking from C0 to C5 (I believe all the other Dreadbox synths do this as well). So when I'm sending a C2 it is being read as C0 and C7 is read as C5.
What I would like is a new field, an octave offset. This could be set when applying a midi channel to a track. By default this value would be 0. But, for example with the Hades, when I select Channel 7 for a track I would amend the offset value to be -2. Then when I use the Va-Beast module it would allow me to actual send a range of C0 to C5.
