• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

Midi control of MyOrgan?

el_supremo

New member
I've been playing with the Kitchener organ and its variations from musicalis. I can get the divisionals to respond to a midi program change message (I use Midi-Ox to remap messages for me) but I can't get the couplers (e.g. Gt->Ped8) to respond to program control messages even if I add, for example, "MIDIProgramChangeNumber=98" to the coupler section.

Has anyone managed to control the couplers in MyOrgan with MIDI - can it even be done?

Thanks
Pete

Hi
yes it is possible to control the couplers.
Couplers are controlled like stops (by the same MIDI channel)
This setting is not in the ODF but in your MyOrgan setup
In the ODF, you can only change the midi number or let it unspecified.
You can also right click on the coupler drawstopand use "listen" to see why your coupler doesn't do what you want.

PS you can use midi prg change or note-on messages, like you want.
