MIDI CC IN Button Press / Release

midi
#1

I'm struggling with simple things and I see if I can expose them here, hoping that someone can share some knowledge :slight_smile:

a button connected through MIDI CC to control a Radio object

Button Press and Release are triggering the counter, so this makes it jumping two units at a time
Any way to make it go up only one unit at a time?

#2

ok, I was able to solved this dividing the counter by two, but I guess this is a hack, probably there are more efficient ways to do this

#3

The trig output on the cc object sends a trigger every time a cc message is received, even if the cc value is 0. So it's triggering twice for each button press, on and off. Try using the cc+ outlet to trigger the counter instead, that outlet is the actual cc value itself.

#4

I think the reason that you get 2 triggers, is because it sends a trigger on both on and off, when you hit the key and when you release the key.

Something like a simple logic statement, like == 1 should fix it.

So try using a an equal to object: ==
And put a ctrl/i with a setting of 1 for the second inlet and the counter value on the first inlet :slight_smile:

Then it will only trigger when you hit the key and not on release.

@jaffasplaffa it makes all the sense to use the == object but didn't worked

@MattilynMattroe using the cc+ outlet is working perfectly

thanks so much for helping me on this :slight_smile:

Glad you got it working :slight_smile:

I just use that technique in Pure Data all the time and it works perfectly for isolating note on and note off. I did not try the specific setup that you are doing here in Axoloti.

hey no problem at all, and thanks to your suggestion I've got the opportunity to become familiar with logic objects :slight_smile:
