JS for CC to Program Change converter?

Hi.

TL;DR:
Here's an odd one. I'm trying find either a JS or VST which can convert MIDI Continuous Controller messages to MIDI Program Change messages.

I'm using a Kontakt script called Mind Control to use CCs for switching between patches within Kontakt Instrument Banks.

This works wonderfully except Mind Control can only use one CC type per-instance.

I'd like to use 2 separate hardware sliders to control 1 instance of Mind Control. The basic idea:

1.) Use 2 hardware sliders to switch between different playing techniques
(Slider 1=long bows, Slider 2=short bows.)

2.) Slider 1 to send a CC straight to Mind Control.

3.) Slider 2 to send a CC to a JS, convert the CC to a Program Change Message, sending the Program Change message into Mind Control.

Additional uses:
Anyone needing to send Program Change messages to a synth/sampler/whatever from a MIDI keyboard with only Pitch & Modwheel (and maybe a few sliders for CCs.)

Thanks!

The Insert Piz Here midi collection has a couple of plugins that can convert CC to PC one is called midiConverter3 and the other is midiProgramChange.

They just have a generic interface, but for the midProgramChange there is an alternate version with a GUI here http://thepiz.org/plugins/?p=midiPCGUI

I do recommend getting the Piz MIDI plugin collection though because it has a lot of useful plugs.., it can be found here http://thepiz.org/plugins/?p=pizmidi

I'd recommend them as well, They're really helpful in solving many MIDI problems.

or - see the attached. One selects the next program, the other uses the CC data value as the Program number.

Thanks, everyone! It turns out I have the whole Insert Piz MIDI collection already. I'll check it out today.

I'll also test your JS, Darkstar. Thanks for the DL links!

How do I use your scripts?

Just drop them into [Reaper's resource directory]/Effects, or a subfolder of that directory. That's where the JS plugins live. You can (but don't necessarily need to) delete the file extension .txt (DarkStar needed to add the file extension to be able to attach the files to his post)
In Reaper they show up in the "Add FX" dialog as JS plugins.

To find Reaper's resource directory on your system, go into Reaper's Options menu and click "Show Reaper resource path in explorer/finder...".

Thanks, XITE-1/4LIVE & Guido! This looks like a great tool for non-Kontakt samplers.
I use the Kontakt script 'Mind Control' to accomplish this stuff in K5,
but something like GigaStudio and Giga Virtual Instrument will benefit
from this for sure. Any VSTi, really. Thanks again.

Hi,

And any external midi also. I use it to do per note midi routing/massaging from my E drumkit to any piece or midi hw in my rig. Its ALMOST like a baby logic environment. Funny, just reminds me of of how flexible, powerful and musician friendly logics environment was/is!^^
