MIDI Message Creation and Manipulation
The Smart Multibox has quite a few functions that allow you to create, send and receive MIDI messages. MIDI messages can also be created manually - they are actually Python bytearrays.
Message Creation Functions
midi_msg_make_1byte(msg_type)
Creates and returns a 1 byte MIDI message with the given message type. Message type constants are at the end of this page.
midi_msg_make_cc(channel, number, value)
Creates and returns a MIDI CC (continuous controller) message with the given MIDI channel (1-16), number (0-127) and value (0-127).
midi_msg_make_chan_pressure(channel, note)
Creates and returns a MIDI channel pressure message with the given MIDI channel (1-16) and value (0-127).
midi_msg_make_note(channel, note, velocity)
Creates and returns a MIDI note message with the given MIDI channel (1-16), note number (0-127) and velocity (0-127). Using velocity of 0 is equivalent to a "note off".
midi_msg_make_pc(channel, number)
Creates and returns a MIDI PC (program change) message with the given MIDI channel (1-16) and number (0-127).
midi_msg_make_pitch_bend(channel, number)
Creates and returns a MIDI pitch bend message with the given MIDI channel (1-16) and number (0-16383).
midi_msg_make_poly_pressure(channel, note, value)
Creates and returns a MIDI polyphonic pressure message with the given MIDI channel (1-16), note number (0-127) and value (0-127).
