MIDI Transformer Object

Is it possible to have the transformer object in the environment combine a note and a MIDI CC value and output different notes depending on the range that the CC value falls into? I'm trying to convert the hi-hat output from my V-drums into several different notes. Hitting the hi-hat pad produces the note A#2 and moving the pedal up or down generates data on CC#4 (in order to gradually progress from open hi-hat to closed hi-hat.) Superior Drummer and other plugins support hi-hat CC data out of the box, but I want to use Addictive Drums which doesn't support this. Basically, I want to implement some simple if statements. So for example:
- IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 1 and 30, output note X
- IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 31 and 60, output note Y
and so on...
Is it possible to do this in Logic? If it can't be done with out of the box environment objects, is there any way to program objects for Logic, or MIDI plugins? I have plenty of programming experience but haven't been able to find much on extending Logic with MIDI plugins.

Again, the answer is yes. Unfortunately, as far as I know, you can't do this in one operation.
IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 1 and 30, output note X
IF incoming note = A#2 and CC#4 is between 31 and 60, output note Y
Will have to be done along these lines.
transformer 1: Status = Note: Pitch = A#2: Mode = Condition splitter(True -> top cable)
top cable to transformer 2
transformer 2: Status = Control: Data Byte 1 >= 30 (whichever > means less than; (it's late)): Mode = Condition splitter(True -> top cable)
send the lower cable from transformer 2 to transformer 3
set transformer 3 as for transformer 2 except Data Byte 1 >=60
You could end up with quite a complex chain of transformers. Don't worry; if they are set up correctly, they will do what you want with little or no latency.
I have used these type of commands combined with delays to create a complete arrangement for piano, synths, bass & drums from a single note. It was an interesting exercise.
I hope this makes sense & that it helps you sort out your problem.

  • Transformer object problem

    Hi, my first post!
    I'm using a transformer-object in the environment to transpose
    some incoming midi-notes in real time.
    This works so far, but somehow, all the notes that are played, 'hang'
    for some reason, like no 'note-off' command is been given.
    Also, when a note is triggered, a second note is triggered at release and
    being displayed in the matrix-editor.
    Is there anyone who can help me out?
    I'm stuck!

    You can transpose incoming data using the playback parameters box by deselecting all regions to display the parameters for the MIDI thru and setting a transpose value. Might be less buggy.

    How I'd probably tackle it is to filter out all the note offs from the input stream first, do my processing to modify/transform whatever notes etc I needed, and add back in the necessary noteoffs when I finally pass the converted notes to the instrument - this won't in general be a problem with drum voices because they largely ignore note-offs anyway, as drum voices don't generally respond to gate time.
    That way I know I always have a matching note-off following a note, and it's easier than trying to process the note-offs separately to match your note on processing, and keep everything in sync.
    To generate note offs for a note on event, pass your modified note-on only MIDI stream to a final transformer, and the use "copy matching events" in whichever order you need, leaving the note pitch to THRU, and setting the velocity to zero, so every incoming note will pass through the transformer, followed by it's associated transformed note off.
    If you have problems setting this up, post back and I'll take a look...
    Edit: Hmm, transformers won't let you fix a note velocity to zero, at least in LP8. That's annoying.
    I know I've done stuff like this before - I need to wait until I've got some clear head time to look at this... I think I ended up converting notes into other data types before converting them back into notes, specifically to break Logic's attempt at handling notes atomically, but can't remember offhand...

  • How to keyframe 3D transform objects in Motion

    hello,
    i cant seem to find how to keyframe a 3d transform object in my project?
    i have a text object that id like to spin in 3d but i cant seem to find where to keyframe in the inspector or timeline...
    thanks!
    steven

    hi,
    I dont want to appear rude but have you looked in the manual under keyframes?
    If you highlight the text object ( maybe better the layer its in in case you want to add more text later),
    and hope over to the inspector you can click on the triangle next to the rotation parameter to show all three degrees of rotation. You can add keyframes by clicking the contextual manual to the right of the parameter or by turning on the big red button and manually moving the object.
    Or instead of keyframing you could add a spin behaviour to the object.

  • Cropping of excess transformed objects

    My problem is as follows:
    I have created a series of circles starting with a base circle then using two transform operations -- one to copy it down then another to copy the whole set across.  So that leaves me with a grid of circles.
    I have created an irregular clipping mask to restrict the circles to within the area of the clipping mask (blue sploosh)
    Everything looks fine in illustrator.  I have included a snapshot here with the clipping mask released so that you can see the objects being worked with.
    The problem comes in when I go to copy & past that artwork into photoshop.  What I get is the full spread of (clipped) circles which messes up sizing inside photoshop.  The clipping mask hid the excess circles but it did not get rid of them.  I have further tried using the pathfinder crop tool but that doesn't seem to work with transformed objects.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can get rid of the spare inner circles so they are really gone and not simply hidden by the clip mask?

    @Jacob
    Thanks.  That was helpful in that it was the first time I've seen anything which was actually able to destructively get rid of the spares. The downside is that for reasons unknown the "blueness" from the sploosh underneath was removed... or more accurately, the it put a white background underneath the clipped circles.  If I turn off the circles group then the sploosh is visible underneath.  I fooled around with other options on the Object -> Flatten Transparency dialog and found I got more pleasing results by enabling Preserve Alpha Transparency but the things like the drop shadow just turned awful.  I'd be way better off to just manually drag circles around. 
    That, at least, gave me SOME Illustrator operation that had some effect on the extra circles created by Effect -> Distort & Transform -> Transform option
    As you can probably tell, I'm a photoshop guy struggling to learn Illustrator.  I find myself partly awed at some of the things it can do and greatly annoyed at silly things like this (and don't even get me started on how awful the bevel options are in Illustrator vs. photoshop LOL).
    At least for the short-term I have a working vector image.  I can pull it into photoshop, rasterize it, then get rid of the spare bits... or simply ignore them since they are invisible.

  • [Transport transformation]: Object not found in Transport Connection.

    Dear All,,
    Would you like kindly help me please .. ???
    I have transformation in development that's going to be trasnported to Production.
    But somehow, when i go to transport connection, i couldn't find the object there.
    The tranformation that i can't see, the transformation that link between datasource and info source. But transformation linking Info source to info provider can be found.
    I've already done:
    1. Reactivate the object ( i edit, and i activate it).
    2. Logging off the system, and log on again.
    But for those techniques, i'm still unable to find the object in transport connection .
    Could you help me please ??
    Is it caused authorization ?? If yes, what authorization made me unable to see it .. ??
    Best regards,

    HI
    Recheck your Collection of Object at Transport Request , Make sure that you have selected before / after DS because you can only see After Info Source ..
    Recollect the objects at Source system and transport them to Target System again Properly.

  • Transform objects on (de)serialization

    Hi,
    I would like to know if it is possible in principle to transform/mutate/repack an object to another object such that it belongs to a different class.
    Scenario: I want to pass a list of groovy objects POGOs to an applet. These groovy objects however have groovy.lang.GroovyObject as its root parent and not java.lang.Object. I don't want to have the applet load the whole groovy runtime and I want to avoid an extra repack step. So the idea is that the serialization (writeObject(), readObject()) does the magic of transforming the POGOs (Groovy) to POJOs (Java). Is that possible or are there some fundamental barriers?
    Thanks
    fatzopilot

    Hi ejp,
    thanks for the hints. I use writeReplace() {return new BrokerObject) in my class (which is serialzable and has a fixed UID) on the server-side to generate a broker object that then should be passed to the client. The broker object is defined in an external jar which is in the classpath of the client (javaFX) and server (groovy/grails) project. It is marked serializable and as well has a fixed UID. However, I get an
    {code}
    java.rmi.UnmarshalException: error unmarshalling return; nested exception is:
         java.io.EOFException
         at sun.rmi.server.UnicastRef.invoke(UnicastRef.java:173).
    on the client side.
    What puzzles me even more:
    When I usewriteReplace() {return this.toString())
    {code}
    I can receive the resulting String without problems on the client side.
    However, when I use
    writeReplace() {return new String(this))I also get the above error.
    It seems, there is some kind of incompatibility when a new Object is created. Any ideas?

  • MIDI transform menu options not doing anything

    Hi there - in the last week or so, something weird has happend to Logic. Whenever I bring up a MIDI region, and go to Function > Transform, then select one of the options, i.e. Fixed Velocity, Crescendo or Velocity Limiter, nothing happens. No dialogue box appears, so I can't do anything with these functions. I've tried restarting, trashed the preferences and checked file permissions, but nothing is sorting it.
    Has anyone come across this before?
    Thanks very much.

    Hi Seeren,
    Thanks very much for the reply. I've had a go, but this isn't solving it for me. I've got dual monitors running, and have tried changing res on both, but no joy. Surely if the maximum resolution was selected then that would be the most likely one to show everything though?
    Will keep digging - thanks for your help.

  • How to outline/simplify a transformed object

    Using CS5.  I have a solid shape with a hollowed center (see far left image). I applied a transform effect to make it look "3D" by offsetting it slightly 32 times (see middle image.  see far right image to see what it looks like selected).  I want to simply have the middle image, but without all the paths and lines - I just I want it outlined. I tried to expand it, group it, pathfinder-add - nothing seems to work.  Help?

    So I then take the lasso tool and select the all the anchor points between the two extreme anchors and delete them and then with the lasso too select those to extreme points and do a command or control J and you get this

  • Transform Object w/out losing perspective? CS6

    Hello:                                                                                                          Level: Newbie  OS: Windows 7 64bit    PS:CS6
    So, I have been searching the manual for the answer to no avail. Believe it or not I do often find what I need in the user manual. Just don't want you all to think I come run'n here first to have someone esle do my work/research )
    Any way,
    I cannot currently recall how ... but in Inkscape I remember that when I wanted to flip an object and it lost its shape that I could do something like go under Path and Convert to Object or something to that affect (I took Inkscape off my pc to make room or I would go check).
    I made a Fork at an angle which I've decided I don't like (it took me forever to get it just right), and when I change its placement it looks quite odd and loses its proper perspective/shape.
    Does anyone know what I am trying to say? LOL ...
    Is there an easy fix to my problem?
    Thank You for your time

    Thank you Noel.
    I will try that out & let you know how it goes for me. I think I'll give the Vanishing Point under Filter a go.
    Also, I will come back 2mar'o & post a pic of the fork in the first perspective I made and then an other of how it looks when I try to move it to where I've decided I want it placed.
    Too tired 2nite. Need a pc break
    JJ, that's not actually what I need to accomplish but thank you for your time. But it's my fault. I should have mentioned that I am Rotating the Fork and when I do it loses it's shape.
    Thanx again to you both
    Here are two pics of the fork. The first is how I drew it with the Pen tool and the second is how it looks after I have Rotated it. I understand the Layer Styles don't look the same because it's at a different angle. However, I was just wondering if there's something I can do so that when I change an Objects angle it will retain its shape.
    I suppose I may have to just redraw the fork at the angle I decided I want. I would use the path tool to move the handles around but while making this I was unable to use the Dodge or Burn tools unless I Rasterized the Layer. Is that "Normal" ??
    Noel, I haven't had a chance to try out your suggestions yet.
    As always, thank you for your time
    Still haven't gotten to Noels suggestions but I will and will come back to let people know how things worked out. Just been super busy. In the interim and I just redrew the fork and changed the angle of the Gradient Overlay.
    It may be a bit before I can get back but I will in case someone in the future has the same question.
