300 synths, 3 hardware projects, and one app MIDI Guide, the open, "comprehensive" MIDI CC & NRPN dataset, has far outgrown its original purpose.

After seven years, MIDI Guide has more than 300 instruments in its dataset! The round number compelled me to blog: midi.guide/blog/three-h...

Line 6 DL4 MkII Delay Modeler MIDI CCs and NRPNs MIDI implementation details for the Line 6 DL4 MkII Delay Modeler

A community member contributed this def for the Line 6 DL4 MkII Delay Modeler - as a non-pedal guy I'm consistently impressed at how well MIDI is implemented on pedals, meanwhile I keep buying overhyped synths that support 8 CC parameters and 7 of them are undocumented 🥴 midi.guide/d/line-6/dl4...

Soma Labs: Here is a synth that leaks a mysterious black fluid while emanating demonic childlike whispers. It costs $1,600.

Teenage Engineering: Here is an OP-XY. It's $2,300 but it is compatible with LEGO.

Behringer: You're not going to BELIEVE what I found in the dumpster behind Moog's HQ.

Issues · pencilresearch/midi MIDI CC & NRPN database. Contribute to pencilresearch/midi development by creating an account on GitHub.

On the roadmap: support for more nuanced default values (see here: github.com/pencilresear...). Some manufacturers get very creative with CC/NRPN usage. Looking at you (with loving, smiling eyes), @elektron.se

A `Centered`-oriented row with usage of `0~127: Pan` means every value from 0 to 127 produces a different result, and the default value is 63. This should be a rotary encoder with a detent in the middle, or a fader, etc.

The end result is a CSV file, one per synth, with special rules governing the Usage column. For example, a usage value of `0-63: Off; 64-127: On`, with an orientation of `0-based`, specifies that all CC values from 0 to 63 should result in the same behavior (likewise from 64-127) - this is a switch.

Midi Guide's definition format is guided by two principles:

1. Normies can use the raw definitions as a reference, and even contribute to them, without using git or any other special software

2. The definitions are machine-readable such that they can be used to generate a complete UI for the synth
