Topic: filter 50 % not correct

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

reset filter sets the filter to off and send 50%
turn knob 'filter' in the middle will not give back 50%

eg. to get the pfl LED work with filter you must use:
filter 50,3937008% ? pfl on ? on : off : pfl on ? blink 250ms : blink

but reset filter on load will set it to 50% an led will blink with knob in middle position.

i think send MIDI 63 and MIDI 64 will turn Filter OFF. Filter 50% means MIDI 63,5!
With knob in middle pos. you send MIDI 64 and get back "filter 50,3937008%"

bugfix:
please let "Filter 50%" be the same as "Filter 50,3937008%"
best solution will be an aera over 3 digits to give back "Filter 50%" (Midi 63/64/64)

Would you mind to tell us with which controller you have this issue ? Not all controllers send precisely 50% on their middle pos (some times there can be a hardware defect on knobs)

its a Traktor S4 MK1
I think its not a console problem. Filter middle 50 % should be MIDI 64 (from 0 to 127 = 128 stepts 50% = 64)
The traktor sends in the middle a "64".....seems to be correct

But VDJ accept also a Midi 63 to switch filter off. A VDJ Software reset Filter to 50% is equal to Midi 63,5. The LED with knob in middle (MIDI 64) will show filter = on

If a knob/slider always sends some specific value when in zero (12 o clock position) then you can have zero="" in the definition.
So if e.g. sends 0x00 at far left , 0x7F at far right and 0x40 in middle position, you can have ..
<slider cc="" zero="0x40" name="FILTER" deck="" channel="" />
WIth the zero="", the Filter will become 50% everytime the FIlter knob passes/stays at the zero position.

Only that you did a simple math error:
Middle for 1 -> 128 (128 steps) is 64
Middle for 1 -> 127 (127 steps) is 63,5
Middle for 0 -> 127 (128 steps) is 63
