| - | If an app accepts MIDI CC's directly, you route MIDI directly to the app and it directs CC values to it's controls internally. Some apps have hard coded CC numbers for each control. Most often there is a way to map the CC numbers that you want to the controls though. How to set those up vary from app to app, but the general process is to engage "MIDI Learn", | + | If an app accepts MIDI CC's directly, you route MIDI directly to the app and it directs CC values to it's controls internally.
