How to change states by midifile

[daveurope]

Can Someone here help me to understand that ?

As I always play on backing tracks I would be eager to know how to change states automaticaly…
But I don’t know how to create such a midifile.

Thank you

The easiest way would be to use transport position triggers:

Sneak Peak - Transport Triggers

A little something I’ve been working on…

Alternatively, you can “bake in” state switching commands (CC messages) into your MIDI files and use a filtered route (that only lets those “next state” commands through from your media player to “Loopback - Main Keyboard”. Now create a binding that reacts to those CC messages and switches states. Here is a suggestion I made to another user before transport triggers were built in:

Changing State By Song Position

There may be a way to do this (albeit in a somewhat convoluted fashion): Create a MIDI file in your favorite sequencer that contains MIDI CC events for every state change (use one of the general purpose controllers like 16) - place CC 16 events at the times when you want to switch to the next song state Load this MIDI file into a media player and sync it with your backing track (I assume you have a backing track, since you want to switch by song position - right?) Route the MIDI output of this…

Cheers,
