Is the MIDI routed through a sequencer?

If so, perhaps you can use the sequencer's Input Transformer (or equivalent) to acheive this.

no, the midi controller external unit is connected directly to the pulsar's MIDI IN jack..

normally your controller should take care of this

Mm, I really need to release that Logic Transfo clone

Mine too; you can still route that through your sequencer...

Hi Liberty,
I'm not familiar with a UC-16 but I use the Kenton Control Freak as my midi controller.
When programming a slider with the Freak you are able to set midi lowest value and midi highest value. Can the UC-16 do this?
I've uploaded a simple conversion chart in the "Tools" forum. It's not exact but it's exact enough.
In terms of the controller values, I feel that only 3 values are significant anyway:
1 - Controller off or at it's lowest (for sustain this is an on/off thing anyway)
100 or 128 - Max value
50 or 64 - Critical for centre pan position.

All others, to my way of thinking, will depend on the sound that you're changing via that controller. That is, the value is irrelevant - it is the sound that is important. The main thing is that the values are controlled.

Hope that helps.

I have a UC-16 also - it only allows you to program CC and MIDI Channel per knob AFAIK - not as elaborate as the Control Freak...
