salut,

i have a problem with sending controllervalues from processing to my sequenzerprogramm (fruityloops). i want to transform the velocity of particles to controllervalues and send them with the sendController-function. for that purpose i installed virtual midiports (i tried it with maple & midiyoke).

Code:

import promidi.*;

MidiIO midiIO;
MidiOut midiOut;

//add controller 11 with value 0
Controller res1 = new Controller(11,0);

void setup()
{
  size(127,20);
  framerate(24);
  background(0);

  //get an instance of MidiIO
  midiIO = MidiIO.getInstance(this);
  
  //open an midiout, channel 0 on third device
  midiOut = midiIO.getMidiOut(0,2);
}

void draw()
{
  //transform movement to midi
  res1.setValue(mouseX);

  //send midi
  midiOut.sendController(res1);
}
 

this is a simplified version for testing, but is also doesn't work. fruityloops receives nothing at controller 11. values seem to arrive at random-controllers and their value seems to be always '0'.

thanks for your help!
