Defining MIDI Commands
Before you can use MIDI commands you have to select the MIDI interface
for incoming messages from the “Input for MIDI commands” pop-up.
1. Select the operation for which you want to define a MIDI command.
2. Click the “MIDI Event…” button.
3. If you want to clear the current MIDI command, click Clear.
4. Send the MIDI event from your controller.
Press the key or button you wish to use on your MIDI controller and the MIDI command will
be set for the operation. Which MIDI channel you are sending over is also taken into account.
5. You have the option of specifying a “Context” for the command.
If you click “Context”, a second MIDI Command dialog is opened.
A context can be a Program change or a Note ON message. E.g. if you
choose a Program change as context, the command will only be triggered
if the last program change received is the one specified as the context.
This is a way of introducing “modifier” options via MIDI messages.
6. Click OK to exit the MIDI command dialog(s) and then the Key Commands
dialog.
7. Make sure “Enable MIDI Commands” is activated on the Options menu.
Now the MIDI function you have set up is active.
• All MIDI controllable WaveLab functions are of the “on/off” type except the
separate Shuttle/Pitch bend function (see “Using a MIDI pitch bend wheel
to control Shuttle” on page 144).
