Does this code remove the (N)RPN related CC events, or does it just decode (N)RNPs in parallel? The latter will cause (N)RPNs to be doubled in apps that understand both "raw" CCs and cooked (N)RPNs. (Like Audiality as of a few minutes back.) I think filtering the CCs out is the Right Thing(TM) to do when (N)RPNs are actually used, but if some apps want to use the full range of "raw" CCs, that won't work. Those apps won't see the (N)RPN related CCs, and they won't look for (NON)REGPARAM events. (Even if they did, they wouldn't be able to extract the underlying CCs reliably.) Maybe ALSA shouldn't mess with (N)RPNs at all, unless applications ask for it? > It seems that we have also missing encoding of > CONTROL14 events. Now *that's* fun stuff... *heh* BTW, I think "applications might know better" applies here too. Apps that want to bother with 14 bit controls might do stuff that's intimately tied to the control intperpolation/smoothing. The only "correct" way to implement 14 bit CCs seems to involve a timeout, which will add latency to all CCs that can be 14 bit, and apps that want to be smart about it to reduce latency may not be able to do so without getting at the raw CCs. //David Olofson - Programmer, Composer, Open Source Advocate .- The Return of Audiality! --------------------------------. | Free/Open Source Audio Engine for use in Games or Studio. | | RT and off-line synth.
