    Default Sending encoder values to MF Twister?

    Hi folks, I use Max/MSP, in which I can store any number of 16-tuples of integer values. I would like to send such tuples to my Twister to "load them up" and have it display (and be able to modify) these values. Is this possible, and if so what MIDI messages do this? Let's just focus on whether I can send MIDI to perform the action

    "Set encoder #7 in bank 3 to value 50."

    or if that isn't directly doable,

    "Set encoder #7 in the current bank to value 50."

    The LED rings for the encoders are updated by sending a CC value (which can be customized) and velocity ranging 0-127 and each bank has it's own CCs so you should be able to achieve the first example. Twister can only listen it to Note and CC messages so you'll need to format it correctly.

    Setting the encoder #7 in bank 3 with a value of 50% translates to sending MIDI Out to Ch.1 CC38 with velocity 64 and Ch.1 CC38 would be the value you can assign Max to listen so you can tweak those values from Twister. If you set an automation or move the parameter from the software then the LED rings should follow accordingly.

    You can find more about it over here.
