CODM Divisions and Compass

PostTue Nov 14, 2006 3:08 pm

I am trying to build a harpsichord with the help of CODM. Most things are already working ok. The keyboards range should be from MIDINoteNumber 28 to 89, but all I could reach is a division/stoprank beginning at MIDINoteNumber 36. How can I add the keys 28 to 35?

Hello Uwe,

You can have any starting note number and compass for the Rank table, and up to 128 keys in a division/keyboard. You can also use any increement between the division/keyboard and the rank using the StopRank table. *However* the first note number on the division/keyboard is fixed at 36 (the intention was to minimise the number of settings) so I'm afraid you can't have a virtual keyboard starting at MIDI note number 28 in the CODM.

What I suppose you could do as a work-around is effectively to make the first virtual keyboard note behave as if it was note number 24 (i.e. have a -12 increment for all StopRanks) and then set a +12 key shift in Hauptwerk's MIDI input path. That wouldn't be ideal since it would need changing each time you switch to a different sample set.

A neater alternative would be to edit the generated organ definition file and change the Keyboard.KeyGen_MIDINoteNumberOfFirstKey setting from 36 to 24.

Best regards,
Martin.
