Midi Monitor missing first data byte for pitch wheel

Well, it shows always 0, which isn't a big loss given the precision of my controller.

This is just a Monitor issue, AU's get the full 14 bits

  • Does your MIDI controller actually implement the full 14-bit pitch bend? Mine always send zero for the LSB, as shown by any MIDI monitor, not just Drambo.

  • Both MidiTools Monitor and Mozaic say so :

    Not totally in sync, but yes.

    Again, not a big issue until you need a trustfully monitor 🤗

    I think the drambo pitchbend module is high precision, but the drambo midi monitor lies about its value. If you use a different auv3 monitor (I use midispy) it reports it as higher depth. I haven't tested an external controllers pitchbend, but I think this means drambo supports the full bit depth internally.

    I've been using the pitchbend module to send high resolution midi, as drambo does not support nrpn. Specifically, I send the pitchbend to streambyter which then processes it into the messages I need (nrpn, sysex). Also used pitchbend with sunvox for high resolution knobs, as sunvox doesn't expose parameters auv3-style.

  • Rigth, it's just drambo's monitor that is missing the LSB.

    AU and external midi get the full 14 bits.
