help fix REAPER midi learn
REAPER's midi learn is lacking.
there is no way to manually assign a CC to a parameter without learning it.
the learn screen is problematic, as it only displays the last seen midi CC.
for devices that send multiple CCs, this makes learning a real nightmare.
my QuNeo sends xyz and aftertouch CCs as well as notes per pad.
in order to learn these to the correct parameters, i must do a LOT of trial and error until i happen to snag the right CC value.
does anyone have a solution to this? other than filtering out the undesired CCs and then unfiltering them upon learn? this takes more time than simply trying again and again to snag the right CC value.
REAPER could address this by allowing users to manually assign CCs to parameters and/or by showing all moved CCs instead of the last moved CC in the learn window.

It's a familiar issue, indeed (in many other apps as well, btw). I typically just use some other MIDI controller or app to send the CC# I need, as REAPER does not seem to care about which port it comes from, another thing that could be greatly improved (by optionally including the port name or number as well as the channel). Of course, I also think we should just be able to edit the CC manually. I mean, we can even select the text with the pointer (it is not greyed out or anything), suggesting that we can just edit it. Weird… Of course the need for feedback needs to be mentioned here as well.

I do

"Inject" the desired CC message from another track, via Jeffos' MIDItoReaControlPath:
-- load the two FX (Injector is attached below)
-- set the values
-- activate MIDI Learn for the target FX (ReaComp's Threshold, in this case)
-- change the Operation value from "Off" to "Send".
The JS FX is now over here:

haven't had time to properly figure out how this works in practice, but one problem i may have is that i use miditoreacontrolpath already, on all of my device inputs. since Reaper's control path doesn't allow you to use midifx on it, i bypass it completely with miditoreacontrolpath...therefor all of my CCs are already coming from mtrcp

... put them on a new track, used only for CC injection
You only use it when setting up the MIDI Learn CC numbers.
Here's some more info (using an earlier version of the JS FX):

I use Midiox as a front end to all midi coming into the Computer so I already use it to filter out anything I need before the midi signal is router to Reaper.( using loopmidi virtual midi driver)

darkstar, i took a less sleepy look at the way the injector works and i'm impressed, this is a great way to sidestep/workaround the issue. thanks for this, very much.

You're welcome.
But, why oh why, doesn't the MIDI/OSC Learn window yet remind us which FX/parameter is being "taught"? Little things can mean a lot.

Don´t know if is the right place to ask. Is ther a way to filter Sysex messages? My keyboard is with a problem, and it keeps sending random sysex messages that alter my VST parameters... Is ther a way to prevent REAPER from recording these messages?

I suppose you could use a Midi filter JSFX in the input effect chain of the track to deletes such messages before recording.
IMHO, at best, You should post a dedicated message with appropriate caption in the Script forum.

Have you tried Relearn? https://forum.cockos.com/showthread....light=realearn it might not be any faster, but it is definitely more powerful than Reaper native midi learn, snd you can select parameters in dropdown menu, type in CCs and choose multiple sources and targets.
