View source for MIDI Filter Rule Language

The '''MIDI Filter Rule System''' is integrated in the webconf tool. You can create your rules by hand or using the “rule composition” dialog.

We have developed a simple '''MIDI Filter Rule Language''' that can be used for creating rule-sets. These "rule-sets" can do a lot of interesting tricks with your MIDI input flow. If you have a MIDI-OUT, you can also use your Zynthian Box as a powerful standalone MIDI filter.

Here is the '''MIDI Filter Rule Language''' syntax:

==Rule Formats:==

 IGNORE [CH#??] EV[#??]
 MAP [CH#??] EV[#??] => [CH#??] EV[#??]
 CLEAN [CH#??] EV[#??]

==Event types:==

 CC#?? => Continuous Controller Change (??=controller number)
 NON#??, NOFF#?? => Note-On, Note-Off (??=note number)
 PC#?? => Program Change (??=program number)
 KP => Key Pressure (aftertouch)
 CP => Channel Pressure (aftertouch)
 PB => Pitch Bend

==Numeric expressions:==

 5	=> a single number
 5,6,7 => a list of numbers
 5:7	=> a range of numbers, including both limiters
 1,2,3:5	=> a mix of lists and ranges

==Some Examples:==

 IGNORE CH#2 PC => Ignore Program Change events coming from channel 2

 MAP CH#1 CC#7 => CC#1 => Map Volume Control events from channel 1 to Modulation Wheel events in the same channel

 MAP CH#1 CC#0:127 => CH#2 CC#0:127 => Map all CC (Continuous Controller) events from channel 1 to channel 2

 MAP CH#0 NON#0:45 => CH#1 NON#0:45
 MAP CH#0 NOFF#0:45 => CH#1 NOFF#0:45 => "Split" your keyboard, sending the lower notes (until A-1) to channel 2
