Assign MIDI CC in JALV #51

Open fernando-inf opened 3 years ago

fernando-inf commented 3 years ago

Hi, there are certain LV2s that have MIDI built in. How to assign a MIDI CC to control a parameter of an LV2 in JALV ?. I can't find any option in jalv -h, thanks.

Unfortunately, Jalv does not have this feature yet.

Tagging this as a feature and I'll keep the ticket around, since it's come up before. I'm not entirely sure it will fit in the scope of Jalv, but hopefully it can be added without being too intrusive. It will probably be a while before I have the capacity to add new functionality like this though, so if you need this right now, probably best to look in to other hosts.

Thanks!

MOD-HOST includes MIDI, but it is not in the DEBIAN repositories.

Also MOD-HOST gave me problems when connecting it to Guitarix. With Jalv I had no problems and it is in the Debian Repositories, so thank you for accepting the idea. Greetings.

You're welcome.

Re-reading this, to be clear, Jalv does support MIDI in the sense that plugins that use MIDI directly (like instruments) will work. Parameters in LV2 are a different thing, though, so in order to bind some parameter to a MIDI controller, the host needs to implement this itself. That's the part that Jalv is lacking currently.

I understand. I hope news in the next times, goodbye.
