"Filter MIDI events by volume

“To save processing power, I have several channels loaded, each with a MIDI event filter mapped to a knob. I open and close these filters depending on the sound I need. However, I’m currently using two knobs for this: one for volume and another to toggle the MIDI filter. Is it possible to combine these into one? Can I automatically block MIDI input whenever the volume reaches zero? I do this in MainStage and want to replicate it on Zynthian.”

Sorry, i can’t understand what do you want to achieve. Please, be more verbose.

Regards,

Sounds like he wants to stop incoming midi when chain volume is at minimum to reduce audio resource load. I think it’s a suboptimal way to acheive a very reasonable goal. I personally like how e.g. Reaper bypasses plugins for muted chains.

But of course it’s best @richard_brasil speaks for himself. :wink:
