Well when I say pitch I mean the frequency that it's running at - to honest I wasn't sure what to call it.

I'm not very experienced with eXT to it all very new to me.

New Delux, "DX", version of the CC scanner available!

This little beauty stores 2 values for 12 CC's (Max/Min). There is a Position fader that will change a CC's Value from setting 1 to setting 2 as it gets closer to it. You can control how close the position has to be to start effecting the values using the Width knob. You can control how fast the actual position follows your movements using the glide knob. You can fade from 0 to the faders' max values or from max to 0 using the Amp knob. You can cross fade (invert) the Max and Min values using the Max/Min crossfading knob. You can set which CC with be the 1st of the 12 (e.g. if set to 6 then CC's will be 6-17) using the First controller dropdown. You can control the start and end positions by pressing the Numbers (fun when automated). There are also your standard midi learn functions (press learn, move GUI, move an incoming CC). Most controls are already mapped to the first 10 CC's or so. Please PM me with problems.

thanks again soma! its morphing mania over here these days. :D

Soma,
WooHoo !
DarkStar, ... Interesting, if true
Inspired by ...

Could someone post an example of some uses for the Soma_CC_ScannerDX. I am absolutely addicted to the Soma_AudioSwitcher and figure this new one is probably a juicy one to wrap my head around too. Thanks again Soma! And thanks anyone who can help me understand this one better. :wink:

i just took the ccscanner.ext with the normal scanner and replaced it with the deluxe.. that gives you the idea. ;)

A quick list of possible uses (I'll leave it up to you to figure out how to get them :hihi:)

Fade in 12 level sliders and then morph them to another set of levels.

Scan a mixer across 12 inputs.

Use it as a raw GUI controller for 12 different parameters.

Use one scanner to send CC's to 12 DX scanners' amplitudes and morph between 12 setups for a synth.

Use one scanner to send CC's to 12 DX Scanners's position to sequence 144 CC's with one fader.

Control a 12 point graphic EQ like a sweep filter.

Setup 12 effects that you want to have a parameter change on in a song and move to that point using the numbers and width =0.

Playing with ccscanner.ext I feel that I have the basics but now I am trying to set up a simple setup to see if I get it all and I don't. :(

I am trying a simplified version of one of Soma's suggested uses. I am using one CCScanner to control 4 DX Scanners to try and morph between 4 setups on a Synth1.

You can download the ext file by clicking on the image.

I don't have the DX Scanners hooked up in this pic because they start messing with the Synth immediately and if I connect all four my cpu overloads.

I feel like I am missing something. Anyone want to help me out with this. Hopefully there is someone else out there that could benifit from this demonstration of these great midi tools! :)

I'll see if I can set the file up for you but I can't DL it.

I stood 9 hours at a german market in the frost today. After coming home I drank a glass of vine (enough to make me drunk after this freeeeezing). Now I'll go to the PC and start Soma's FX (thanks for all those fantastic plugs :D, I might even understand what half of 'em do, but I'll learn that :lol: ) and read those explanations. They are surely wonderful, and to me at the moment your last post sounds like a strange surrealistic poem written about the number TWELVE... :ud:

(To be earnest, thanks for those hints, now let's see what we can do with it! :) )

In Norway it must be a tad colder than here ( -1 °C at the moment); so it is definitely better to live behind your PC like Jörgen than drinking vine after 9 hours on a dead cold marketplace. Imagine the next beta in case Jorgen would code OUTSIDE, and get drunk from a single glass of vine...probably he would invent not only the famous FM-synth, but also an additive one, 7 features yet unknown to mankind, and more, within a week...

@adds2to1
Whoa. Yeah I'm having problems with that :oops:
Major CPU frying too.
Maybe I need to make a specific plugin for that one. ;)
Look for it early next week.

Ok faster than I thought. i got it and just need to test it and post it.
Soma_CC_morph coming up.

Post

Thanks Soma, it isn't just me!

My understanding of the CCScanner is that it will send out 12 CC's to the value that they have as determined by where the crossfader is, values that are 0 when the crossfader is no longer under them and 127 when the crossfader is under them. This is also affected by the glide and width.

My question that I will continue to ponder as I go to work tonight is how does that CC ouput of a value going from 0-127 affect a ScannerDX to morph between presets on a synth? What paramater is the CCScanner modulating on the ScannerDX to make the change.

I'm thinking out loud.

Man I love watching the faders on the mixer move as I move the crossfader around!

Gods your fast!
