Thank you, this answers my question and is exactly what I suspected. At the moment it's just Linux PC Ardour MIDI tracks -> RME HDSPe AIO MIDI out -> Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 MIDI in -> iPad Sample Tank but DX7, Matrix-1000 and other should be used, too. IOW the faders only deal with MIDI streams. >If the fader has only a midi stream to deal with, it controls >velocity. The values shown are (looking at latest git) 0 to 2. This is >gain. with the fader centred at 1 velocity in = velocity out. if the >fader is at 1.5 then velocity out will be velocity in * 1.5. (eg 64 in >* 1.5 is 96 out). For a mixer that's very unusual since velocity not simply affects the volume. So CC 7 and CC 10 are only available by the editor window? It's not possible to get this for the mixer window? FWIW CC 10 fader values >= 63 are displayed, but < 63 the values aren't displayed. Is this a known bug for ardour 5.8? Is there a setting to ensure that loop play for MIDI tracks works unbroken? At the moment the cycle isn't played smooth.
