script cc and pitch bend

[ulrik]

I'm familiar with how to create notes for the midi player through scripting like you example @Christoph-Hart

//	ADD NOTE FUNCTION
inline function addNote(list, channel, notenumber, velocity, position, length)
{
    var m = Engine.createMessageHolder();
    m.setType(m.NoteOn);
    m.setNoteNumber(notenumber);
    m.setVelocity(velocity);
    m.setChannel(channel);
    m.setTimestamp(Engine.getSamplesForQuarterBeats(position));
    
    var o = Engine.createMessageHolder();
    o.setType(o.NoteOff);
    o.setNoteNumber(notenumber);
    o.setChannel(channel);
    o.setTimestamp(Engine.getSamplesForQuarterBeats(position + length));
    
    list.push(m);
    list.push(o);
}

Is there a similar way to script cc and pitch bend information for the midi player?

[Christoph Hart]

Sure:

o.setType(o.PitchBend);

o.setType(o.Controller);

@Christoph-Hart great, thanks!

@Christoph-Hart btw, let's say I have 8 quarter notes in a sequence, and I wan't to have cc1 going from min to max from the start to the end of sequence, how should I calculate the timestamp for cc1, and does it matter in which order the different events is pushed to the list?

[Christoph Hart]

how should I calculate the timestamp for cc1

The same way you calculate it for the notes. Use the tick format, then o.setTimestamp(quarterPos * 960.0).

does it matter in which order the different events is pushed to the list

Nope, they are sorted chronologically when they are put into the MIDI player.

@Christoph-Hart I use the

setControllerNumber() & setControllerValue()

for controllers between 1 - 127 and it works great
but with what function do I set the pitch bend value?

[ulrik]

@ulrik never mind, I set the pitch bend value with the same function

setControllerValue()
