MIDI Volume - Cntrl #7 question

[RJHollins]

ok ... this should be simple, but I've not found definitive answer related to FS code.

I'm making a simple VCA that I need to control level output. This will be a small VST audio plugin that I need to send MIDI data to.

I'm using the stock 'MIDI Event' prim as the foundation.

I would prefer to follow proper MIDI spec format of the data ... and that is where the question is.

I'm testing with:

STATUS = 7
Channel = assignable 1-16
D1 = ????
D2 = variable 0 - 127

I'm not sure what value for D1. Also want to be correct with Status ... well, everything actually

I've been all over the web, and found plenty of spec sheets ... but still not sure

Thanks for any help for this!

additional research ...

I'm reading that CNTRL #7 [Main Volume] is a CC.

If I understand correctly ...

The STATUS would = 176 and D1 = 7 .

CHannel and D2 would be variables I can supply.

Does this sound correct ?

[Tronic]

this message in binary format is Status byte + Channel byte
Status: 176
Channel: 1-16
Data 1: 0-127 (Control Change number)
Data 2: 0-127 (value)

Ah ... Thanks for confirming Tronic
