Need a cc-mapping for leslie stop #79

Open ahellquist opened 3 years ago

ahellquist commented 3 years ago

Most midi controllers have toggle switches and personally I use my sustain pedal to switch leslie from low to fast.

I have found no clever way to stop the leslie except leaning over to the computer and open the gui to stop the leslie. That is very inconvenient during for example a live performance.

Could this be implemented somehow ?

By default the Modwheel (CC1) is mapped to rotary.speed-preset which allows to set horn and drum speed to slow (0..42), stop (43..85), fast (86..127).

There is an un-mapped rotary.speed-select handler that allows all 3^2 combinations [stop/slow/fast]^[horn|drum] in case you need more control.

I have used my sustain pedal to toggle the Leslie from slow to fast and from fast to slow from the get-go without any problems and without doing any additional configurations. I have tried it only on the GUI version though.

Me too. I was looking for a better way to stop the leslie. Toggling speed is fine.

Oh you want to stop the Leslie completely! Sorry, my bad. Perhaps you could set the "slow" speed to 0 or something of the sorts?

ahellquist commented 3 years ago

I want to be able to switch between fast and slow like now but bind a button to stop for rare occasions where the Leslie should be completely stopped.

I did some digging, and found out that the "default.pgm" file contains a 'stop leslie' control at MIDI Program Change №52. So all you need to do is configure a button on your keyboard to send a program change message with the value 52 (how you do that depends on your keyboard) and you should be good to go (not exactly - see the note below). If you're using a custom .pgm file, you can add this line to it using a text editor:

[program_number] { rotaryspeed=stop }

and it should work. Replace [program_number] with 52 or whichever program change value you like and configure the keyboard to send it.

(Note: I just tested it, and it works. Mind one thing though: setBfree counts the Program change values from 1 to 128, while MIDI sends them as 0-127, so you will probably have to configure your keyboard to send Program Change 51, not 52.)

Thanks for the tip!

I have seen the program change mappings a long time ago so I'm glad you brought it up. Will set up my quite versatile keyboard for this and give it a try.

Thanks
