MIDI Commands When Playing Songs

Diese Funktion ist ab Version 6.4 vorhanden.

Send Configurable MIDI Commands

With the "Actions when Playing" button in the song's edit window, you can define any MIDI commands to be sent at specific times while playing the song.

The window that opens is very similar to "Actions on Opening," but for each inserted MIDI event, you can additionally set the time it will be sent.

In the upper right, there is also a button that allows you to set the time for the next event to be used before inserting an event.

This time is automatically increased by 0.01 second after each event is inserted, so that consecutively added events automatically acquire advancing timestamps and the sequence is clearly determined by the timestamps.

If there are no MIDI events in the list when the popup window is opened, the button still shows 00:00:00. The first inserted MIDI event will, therefore, have the time 00:00:00.

If there are already MIDI events in the list when the window opens, the time from the last MIDI event + 0.01 seconds is automatically used. The next inserted MIDI event will then by default be inserted 0.01s after the last existing MIDI event.

You can also insert MIDI events using the learning function with the "Learn MIDI Events" button. When you press this button, you'll first be asked whether the events should be recorded time-controlled or continuously. "Time-controlled" means the timestamps will be set as the MIDI events are received and learned in real-time. "Continuous" means the received events will get consecutive timestamps, each event 0.01 seconds higher than the previous one. In this case, it doesn’t matter how quickly and when the events are received and learned. For both variants, the starting time taken is the one currently set on the time button.
