Can I receive values over midi? #18

Can I receive values over MIDI?

Is there a way to receive MIDI values? As I can see in the examples, they all just send values over MIDI. But I can not find a example to receive values...

I want to have a kind of feedback. If my midi software changes a value, I want to receive this and light up some LEDs. f.e. I want a LED-ring around my rotary encoder and want to highlight the current value.

Steps to reproduce the problem

Hardware

Arduino board: Arduino MEGA, Teensy 3.2

Software versions:

MIDI Controller library: 3.0.0

I have been working on a second library that supports MIDI input as well. However, it's not documented yet. https://github.com/tttapa/Control-Surface

Will it be possible to receive bank name or preset name from guitar Amp simulator, e.g. GuitarRig, Overloud TH3 or similar?

Did you consider SysEx messages to 'just' set bytes within a memory?

I'm certainly not an expert, but in reversing a Akai MPD218 I can pretty much drive/control the device via SysEx.
