Is it possible to create a keyboard split with ctrlr?

[Dreetie]

Hi,

I’m new to ctrlr and I wonder if it would be possible to do some midi routing in ctrlr? For example check all incoming note messages and if they are in a certain range send them to another midi channel. This way I could simulate a keyboard split (which my old keyboard doesn’t have)

This shouldn’t be too hard with a LUA script

Thanks, I just asked the question because I saw that the output device only sends to 1 midi channel. So it would be possible to dynamically change that with lua?

Yes it is. In fact it will ignore the settings of the output device if you don’t care in your script.

This will always send a program change on channel 0 (patch is a variable that is set somewhere else):
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(CtrlrMidiMessage({0xc0, patch}))

This will take care of the output device setting (patch is a variable that is set somewhere else):

Midichannel=panel:getProperty("panelMidiOutputChannelDevice")
programchange=string.format("%.2x", 191+Midichannel)
panel:sendMidiMessageNow(CtrlrMidiMessage(programchange.." "..patch))

thanks, I will look further into it.

I use linux as my main os and at the moment I just used lua to open the program qmidiroute to simulate a split. Maybe for simple things I will try to code it into the panel itself.
