The Channel menu selects the MIDI channel on which those messages are sent. You
can choose between all 16 channels, and it includes an Omni entry (the default
setting) that sends the message in omni mode, i.e. on all channels.
The Status menu selects the type of MIDI message sent. Technically speaking, this
defines the message status byte (for more info on what a status byte is, please
refer to some MIDI specification reference). Depending on the selected entry in this
menu, the area below displays relevant dedicated elements. The menu provides
the following entries:
►
Note: Sends a MIDI Note On message. Two dropdown menus specify the message's
pitch and velocity (see the screenshot above). If the velocity is set to zero, the
message will be interpreted as MIDI Note Off. This can be used to trigger
samples in a sampler or phrases in a sequencer.
►
Aftertouch: Sends a MIDI message defining a key's Aftertouch. Two dropdown
menus specify the message's Pitch and Pressure. The Pitch menu offers an All
entry: If this entry is selected, MIDI Channel Pressure messages are sent; in all
other cases Polyphonic Key Pressure messages are sent.
