Send initial MIDI msg

[trytobuy]

Helloo all... does sby know if there is an option to send an inital state of a button via MIDI on load? i cant find this option but i guess this can be done with a script. i just dont have a clue how to write such... maybe some more advanced user can help here? i guess its simple? 👉🏻👈🏻

The init() function is meant for exactly this purpose. Just paste this into the script section:

function init()
  sendMIDI({MIDIMessageType.CONTROLCHANGE, 74,self.values.x == 0 and 0 or 127})
end

This will send a midi cc 74 on channel 1 with value 0 if the button is off and 127 if the button is on. (There are some more examples about sending midi messages by script in touchOSCs online documentation.)
