MIDIBounce Description

MIDIBounce was developed to be an automatic MIDI controller driver. It uses 8 LFOs to drive its controllers; the user can select the MIDI device, MIDI channel, controller IDs, and MIDI value ranges to use. Most of MIDIBounce's user interface is self-explanatory. MIDI-out capable devices in the system appear in the large box in the upper left; one device at a time may be selected, and the channel number to use selected from 1-16. The Active light blinks when MIDIBounce is sending MIDI data to an output device. Each of the 8 independent LFOs has all its controls on a single line. A checkbox at the left enables or disables the LFO. The controller number to send on is selected from a list box; both controller numbers and their corresponding standard assignment names are given, so feel free to mock the MMA's lack of foresight and imagination in defining the controllers. The waveform used by the LFO may be selected from the usual suspects. "Noise" outputs continuously differing random values, while "Random" does a sample- and-hold at the specified tempo. Tempo is specified in beats (defined as half LFO wave cycles) per minute. Minimum and maximum set the range for the controller values output. MIDIBounce automatically saves its state on shutdown and reloads it on the next startup via a file named midibounce.ini. It's worth noting that the settings file is stored in the folder whence MIDIBounce is launched; if you use shortcuts in different folders to launch it, each launch point should keep its own settings. Future versions of MIDIBounce should become more conventional in their settings management.
