Thats sweet thanks man

Thanks gjvti...very useful.

Just wanted to add a link to a MIDI Chart file which i uploaded.
(credits go to Samuel Becker who created this file)


It is a PDF file which gives a total overview of the Virus TI MIDI Chart :

Usefull, thnx alot.

do what does this CC list do? I'm wanting to control my virus by sending it midi messages through a computer program. I have downloaded that MIDI pdf mentioned above as well

Unbelievable that this info is not printed *anywhere* in the manual / other docs.... You'd think someone picked up on it and they'd have it included by now.

When it comes to documentation I think such a list should indeed be provided, just for reasons of completeness, although I can understand that Access has other priorities.

On the other hand, when I want to modulate a specific parameter on the Virus I use a different approach:

The modulation matrix of the Virus allows you to use a midi CC number as source. So if I want to modulate the cutoff frequency from an external sequencer I select, for example, midi CC 12 as source and filter1 cutoff as destination. This way of working has a couple of advantages:

-You don' t need a list anymore, so no lists you have to search for in your studio and no data that has to be updated in the event Access changes something in their o.s. By (ab)using the modulation matrix you have become independent of what Access changes to to their CC' s.
-Every destination in the modulation matrix can be used.
-It always works in the same way, so no need to remember numbers.
-Since the modulation matrix has 6 sources with 3 destinations per source, you can modulate up to 18 parameters with only one incoming midi CC. I have never gone that far though...
-By using modulation intensity in the modulation matrix, you can define upper and lower limits to how far a parameter is affected by the incoming midi CC.

Finally a small enhancement:

Select a midi CC as source (say 12) and assign one of the soft knobs to the same CC number. Now you have a soft knob as source in the modulation matrix, allowing you to modulate up to 18 parameters with the turn of only one knob...
