Control the virus via midi

[boborulz]

ok, so i have all the cc ref's now. say i want to send my virus a note on message, thats 144 60 23 (channel 1, note, velocity). so what would a cc ref message look like? as it needs to contain the cc ref and a value between 0 127 (generally) in order to control the cc parameter. thoughts?

hm, what are you mixing? CCs are absolutely different type of midi data than note on messages. Note messages are triggers, but cc messages are used to shape/colour what has been triggered. Although in general both can be sent to virus either from midi controller (hardware way, midi-in) or from daw (software way, vst).

im using maxmsp to control my virus, so you need to send it specific messages like the noteon one i listed above, but im having trouble controlling the parameters via messages.
