Eh... no. I emptied both Event and Action ... clicked OK and on next opening of
the dialog, the old entry is still there.
In any case, I think it would be a good idea to simply supply a "delete" button.
But thanks for the friendly and quick response... it lets me hope that this
issue will be gone soon;-)

Suppose I want to hack that in in some quick and dirty way:
1. Can hydrogen actually recognize CC04 messages with different values?
I am still confused by the MIDI Event dialog... there's only one field
for the event parameter. Would that be '4' for Controller 4, or '127' for value
127? I guess one needs 2 separate parameter fields there?
I hope that part of the code should be easily extended ...
2. If I do not care about fixing up the GUI for this, even hardcoding some
setting... like, swapping two instruments in the drum kit on said control
message. Would that also need more than a night of hacking?
Thing is, I need a software to be able to play live using my MIDI controller.
Not being able to open/close the hihat is quite a deal breaker there.
Another idea, this would actually be a lot cleaner: It would be trivial to
filter the MIDI input data before handing it to Hydrogen. A little stand-along
program that just handles a MIDI note mapping table and modifies it on certain
events.
I did not play around with MIDI on Linux that much yet... but there must be an
app that just filters ALSA sequencer data (hydrogen does not do JACK MIDI, I
gather). That would neatly solve that issue and even allow mapping of
"continuous" hihat pedals to 5 or so different hihat instruments in hydrogen
(all in one mute group).
Before I rampage on a search engine spree: Do you know such a program that I
could hook up to trigger hydrogen with modified MIDI events?
Alrighty then,
Thomas.
