Does the regular [ChannelN],cue_default CO not work for you? It handles that logic automatically. Otherwise, looking at http://mixxx.org/wiki/doku.php/midi_controller_mapping_file_format#ui_midi_controls_and_names you could use [ChannelN],cue_point but that gives you samples. You'd have to get the sample rate somehow, then divide cue_point by the sample rate to get seconds. Then use playposition * duration to get the current position in seconds. (Use visual_playposition for more accuracy but higher CPU load.) > 2. If I send multiple midi-messages in a row from a script like below, > only a few seem to reach my Hercules RMX controller.

The SCS.3m has this problem when I send commands that it automatically writes to flash, and I have to delay each by 10ms according to the manufacturer. That's controller-related. But there's also a problem with MIDI messages on Linux that we're currently still working around using a 1ns scheduler (as seen in the bug report linked earlier.) There seems to be some activity on the related ALSA bug so maybe it'll get fixed soon. (We verified that Mixxx is indeed sending all the messages it's supposed to.) Sincerely, Sean M.
