    Hi,
    I've got a patch which has midi-learn capabilities but I am now trying to find a way to save what CC number each item is so that I don't have to relearn it the next time I load the patch. I've been searching the forums but I seem to be a bit out of my depth...

    Is it possible to maybe save it to a file and then reload it or something like that?

    I have input from an Xbox controller and I want to use one of the buttons to switch a toggle box on and off. I managed to get a patch that took a bang and alternated the output between 1 and 0 but then I realised that the input the controller was giving me was two bangs at a time. So is there a way that I can have the patch alternate between 1 and 0 ever other bang? Or is there a way I can ditch the second bang?

    I have attached an example of what I am doing.

    Hi, I am quite new to pd but I can see it is an extremely useful piece of software. I have seen lots of people using wiimotes to control pd but I have some trouble replicating this. I downloaded the pd wii mote extra and I can use it to connect to the wiimote but some of the stuff isn't working.
    The buttons report fine but if I click on the "report IR" or "report acc" buttons nothing happens, I just get a load of DIO errors.

    Also I was wondering how I could use this to trigger midi notes and cc? I would really like to have the buttons control some midi notes to trigger a drum machine and the pitch/roll to send cc to control a filter. I managed to get the buttons to send a midi note, but even when I just connected to a single button, all of the buttons triggered it and it also trigger when I lift my finger off of the button.

    Are there any examples that I could have a look at or people that could help me? I am running Ubuntu Linux with the latest pd-extended from the pd website.

    Thanks! I don't know how I didn't realise that.

    Found out the problem! I changed "report acceleration $1" to reportAcceleration 1 and it works now.
    As for note-off, I think I will just stick to using it for drums, so no note-off needed.

    edit: Now I have accellerometer data, what would be the best way of converting this to usable midi cc data? I dug through your patch but it is extremely complicated and hard to make heads and tails of. Would I just multiply it by something then send it to noteout?

    I have clicked the message box that says "report acceleration $1" and checked "print_data" but I don't get any response when I move the wiimote about.

    I have managed to get midi data per button using the "select" message which seems to work fine but I can't work out how best to get a midi noteoff from it.

    @nau thanks for the reply. I meant the pd external, sorry I am still learning the vocabulary. I don't really know how to use OSC or what it does. I tried linking my wiimote to Renoise with OSC but I couldn't get it to do anything.
    Also the attachment you put gives me the error "This does not look like a tar archive" :S

    @mnb I think it is the wiimote external, this one: http://download.puredata.info/wiimote
    I don't know what the "button outlet" is. I see r$0.from.wiimote going in to route button. Do I take it from there?

    My accelerometer works fine with wmgui but doesn't work at all with this :S
