In the case of ZynAddSubFx there are a limited set of fixed controllernumbers assigned to certain parameters, found here:http://zynaddsubfx.sourceforge.net/doc_3.html AmSynth has menu item: Config -> MIDI Controllers In Phasex: right click on parameter name It is pretty much different for each app. If translation of midi signals is required, qmidiroute oreven pd (overkill but flexible) are useful. best,d > Josh Lawrence> http://www.hardbop200.com> _______________________________________________> Linux-audio-user mailing list> Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user>_______________________________________________Linux-audio-user mailing listLinux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
