Feature Request: MIDI Control and Presets

Open helgee opened this issue 3 years ago • 1 comments

Hi,

Great plugin and app! Thanks for putting this out into the world.

The killer feature for me, which is missing from all metronome apps that I know of, would be the possibility to start/stop and select different tempo/time signature presets via MIDI CC.

Does that sound interesting?

Thanks. This is actually on the roadmap but I wasn't able to push it in a reasonable manner for the 0.5 release.

Some questions I had:

  • How would you know tick is using internal state when in a plug-in mode? (Not sure parameter or midi is good idea)

  • What's the desired tempo range? While there some ways to get more than 128 steps. Plain CC gives us 128 steps of bpm.

  • Is the midi parameters one way? Or should it also midi out (eg if you change the playback state from UI)? I'm more into doing it one way so you assume all control is from midi and never bi-directional.
