All - I thought I'd send an announcement about the MIDI filter application I've been working on (and which I was working with when I sent a few requests and questions to this list the last couple weeks, related to using the filter with rosegarden). I hope this announcement is relevant for this mailing list - I think it could be quite useful to some people for use with rosegarden (and I'd like it to evolve further to become even more useful). But - apologies if you think this is not relevant.
I've made the application, which is a perl script called midifilter with supporting perl modules, available on github at: https://github.com/jjttcc/midifilter I'd like to add more features as I find the time. Here is a list of currently supported features: - Trigger program-change from note event where patch number is determined by the pitch value. - bank-select - transpositions - Transpose pitches within a certain configured range up or down by a specified number of half steps. - Trigger external commands. - Send real-time START, STOP, and CONTINUE messages. - Trigger a mode (which I call "program-change sample mode") in which midifilter cycles through the entire range of patches, with a pause in between each patch. In other words, it sends patch 0, pauses for a configured number of seconds, sends patch 1, etc., until it has reached patch 127. This allows the user to try out - "sample" - each patch of the current bank without having to explicitly invoke a program change. There's some more documentation at the github site and I've tried to make the configuration file, to some extent, self-documenting. But this is a work in progress with the typical flaw that the documentation is (at least) a little weak to start with. If anyone here tries the application out and runs into problems, feel free to contact me (either at my email address in the header of this message, or via github). And if anyone has a suggestion or two as to other places appropriate to announce this application - where people seeing the announcement are likely to be interested, please let me know. This list (rosegarden-user@lists.sourceforge.net) is the only place I've announced it at this point. Thanks.
