The settings I've provided are specific to the Thrustmaster gamepad however in general the method will should work with other USB HID compliant devices. I split (Main Menu>Edit>Split) this message so that I could have two separate messages, one from neutral 0 to up 127 and the other from neutral 0 to down 127 instead of top 0 to neutral centre 64 and bottom 127.

On my gamepad the left analog joystick in the y direction is named c13. And with keystroke and mouse emulation, you can control any software on your computer using a MIDI controller. Create custom MIDI routings, rules, logic, layers. The modulation and pitch bending work well within Logic and Garageband with no setup required within either program as in OSCulator the left analog joystick on y axis is set up to send MIDI CC on control number 1 which is standard for modulation and the right analog joystick on y axis sends MIDI note pitch bend. Bome MIDI Translator Pro is a versatile MIDI mapping, processing, and scripting tool. OSCulator is very versatile.Įditing MultiControl parameters are a bit tricky you click and hold in a box and either type in a number or move your pointer to change the numbers. I bought OSCulator because I can control software with my iPod Touch running Touch OSC which sends to Osculator which does the rest. MultiControl doesn't have this level of control therefore OSCulator is required. However the parameters for midi output need to be tweaked for modulation wheel emulation as otherwise the joystick in neutral sends midi value 64 for modulation (so all notes played are modulated somewhat even though the stick is not being pushed) whereas 0 in neutral centered position is required and 127 at the extreme. Multicontrol is free and receives the gamepad data and converts it to midi or osc.
#Midi control for mac drivers
Option 2 A gamepad, a Thrustmaster Dual Analog 3 has two analog joysticks and is USB HID compliant therefore requires no drivers and via MultiControl -> OSCulator could send the appropriate midi messages. Option 1 was to get a small midi controller keyboard however placement would be very awkward. My digital piano doesn't have a modulation wheel or pitch bend wheel.
