accelerometer to send 1 note on/1note off

Question

hI,

apologies if this is a very basic questions, but I am trying to send a simple command (to animoog). Yours is an Amazing program, loving it.

I have created a button, it is note on/note off. accelerometer currently works to send note on and off.

The problem: It sends many notes, whether in toggle or momentary.

I simply want "constant" note, or "held down" effect. Instead, it sends many on off commands, even if I use "note on" only switch.

Am i doing something wrong?

thanks,

dp

thanks, I'll check them later and let you know if I figure anything out!

It's really difficult to explain this procedure but pretty easy to do.

Imagine a row of about 10 dominos where one of the dominos is a NoteOn/NoteOff and depending which way the dominos are falling will depend when a NoteOn or a NoteOff is sent, basically you set up a row of sequential controls where one of them is going to be a NoteOn/NoteOff with only two ticks and the less ticks the control that's going to do the domino effect (accelerometer control) the less jitter you have incase you make NoteOff/NoteOn the middle domino.

We just use 3 dominos to get you started.

Create 3 dominos (Rotary Controls) and put them in a row, double tap the middle one and set it as a NoteOn/NoteOff ,set its ticks to 2, set the note to the one you want, might as well name it to Note so you can easily find it when you want to move it to a different position in the domino chain.

Create another control (rotary or slider) that's going to be a SuperControl for the dominos, add all the dominos as sub controls and make sure the super control's "option as super" has sequential set to on. Set this super control's ticks to about 40, the less it is the less jitter you get for a small number of dominos, turn the super control's accelerometer to on and select the axis you want.

I think that's about it for a template.

I found a different method you might find useful without using sequential controls for the NoteOn/NoteOff part.

Create a rotary button for the accelerometer and set its ticks to 4, add a NoteOn/NoteOff as a sub control and set its ticks to 2. This has no jitter at all ,
only thing here is you need to create a separate slider to do the sustain effect that can be a single rotary with accelerometer.

wow, thanks, I'll definitely try these out. I had a version running with 1 knob and a button which kept the sustain, but it was a little jittery for sure. Thanks so much, great help!

Glad to see this discussion moving forward. If it gets to the point where you cannot find solutions in MIDI Designer, we might be talking about a feature-request (suggestion), or something that can be with Bomes of MJDJ.

Thanks!
