The issue comes up when you don't like the MIDI velocity mapping of your keybaord and want to change the curves, or you want to use a keyboard but create splits. I don't think we ever talked about receiving one kind of MIDI data and turning it into a completely different kind of MIDI data, but it falls into the same sort of problem space. (And an interesting problem space it is.) In this very simple, sort of non-real time problem being discussed here, I wonder is some smart scripting guy couldn't write something really simple and just run it in an xterm? Could you pipe all MIDI data to a little perl script of some type and then that script would look for a certain pattern and output something to another pipe? I remember long ag Paul DAvis wanted me to test my MIDI driver using dd just to see if it was functioning. Maybe in a very limited sense you could make a little program at the command line that would do what's required here? Easy for me to say since I don't have to do it... ;-) - Mark
