Detailed Description

This class represents an instrument handling MPE.

It has an MPE zone layout and maintains a state of currently active (playing) notes and the values of their dimensions of expression.

You can trigger and modulate notes:

  • by passing MIDI messages with the method processNextMidiEvent;
  • by directly calling the methods noteOn, noteOff etc.

The class implements the channel and note management logic specified in MPE. If you pass it a message, it will know what notes on what channels (if any) should be affected by that message.

The class has a Listener class that can be used to react to note and state changes and trigger some functionality for your application. For example, you can use this class to write an MPE visualiser.

If you want to write a real-time audio synth with MPE functionality, you should instead use the classes MPESynthesiserBase, which adds the ability to render audio and to manage voices.

Member Enumeration Documentation

◆ TrackingMode

The MPE note tracking mode.

In case there is more than one note playing simultaneously on the same MIDI channel, this determines which of these notes will be modulated by an incoming MPE message on that channel (pressure, pitchbend, or timbre).

The default is lastNotePlayedOnChannel.

Enumerator
lastNotePlayedOnChannel 

The most recent note on the channel that is still played (key down and/or sustained).

lowestNoteOnChannel 

The lowest note (by initialNote) on the channel with the note key still down.

highestNoteOnChannel 

The highest note (by initialNote) on the channel with the note key still down.

allNotesOnChannel 

All notes on the channel (key down and/or sustained).

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ MPEInstrument() [1/2]

juce::MPEInstrument::MPEInstrument ( )
noexcept

Constructor.

This will construct an MPE instrument with inactive lower and upper zones.

In order to process incoming MIDI messages call setZoneLayout, use the MPEZoneLayout constructor, define the layout via MIDI RPN messages, or set the instrument to legacy mode.

◆ MPEInstrument() [2/2]

juce::MPEInstrument::MPEInstrument ( MPEZoneLayout  layout)

Constructs an MPE instrument with the specified zone layout.

◆ ~MPEInstrument()

virtual juce::MPEInstrument::~MPEInstrument ( )
virtual

Destructor.

Member Function Documentation

◆ addListener()

void juce::MPEInstrument::addListener ( Listener listenerToAdd)

Adds a listener.

◆ callListenersDimensionChanged()

void juce::MPEInstrument::callListenersDimensionChanged ( const MPENote ,
const MPEDimension  
)
private

◆ enableLegacyMode()

void juce::MPEInstrument::enableLegacyMode ( int  pitchbendRange = 2,
Range< int channelRange = Rangeint >(1, 17) 
)

Puts the instrument into legacy mode.

If legacy mode is already enabled this method does nothing.

As a side effect, this will discard all currently playing notes, and call noteReleased for all of them.

This special zone layout mode is for backwards compatibility with non-MPE MIDI devices. In this mode, the instrument will ignore the current MPE zone layout. It will instead take a range of MIDI channels (default: all channels 1-16) and treat them as note channels, with no master channel. MIDI channels outside of this range will be ignored.

Parameters
pitchbendRangeThe note pitchbend range in semitones to use when in legacy mode. Must be between 0 and 96, otherwise behaviour is undefined. The default pitchbend range in legacy mode is +/- 2 semitones.
channelRangeThe range of MIDI channels to use for notes when in legacy mode. The default is to use all MIDI channels (1-16).

To get out of legacy mode, set a new MPE zone layout using setZoneLayout.

◆ isMasterChannel()

bool juce::MPEInstrument::isMasterChannel ( int  midiChannel) const
noexcept

Returns true if the given MIDI channel (1-16) is a master channel (channel 1 or 16).

In legacy mode, this will always return false.

◆ isMemberChannel()

bool juce::MPEInstrument::isMemberChannel ( int  midiChannel) const
noexcept

Returns true if the given MIDI channel (1-16) is a note channel in any of the MPEInstrument's MPE zones; false otherwise.

When in legacy mode, this will return true if the given channel is contained in the current legacy mode channel range; false otherwise.

◆ isUsingChannel()

bool juce::MPEInstrument::isUsingChannel ( int  midiChannel) const
noexcept

Returns true if the given MIDI channel (1-16) is used by any of the MPEInstrument's MPE zones; false otherwise.

◆ noteOff()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::noteOff ( int  midiChannel,
int  midiNoteNumber,
MPEValue  midiNoteOffVelocity 
)
virtual

Request a note-off.

If there is a matching playing note, this will release the note (except if it is sustained by a sustain or sostenuto pedal) and call the noteReleased callback.

◆ noteOn()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::noteOn ( int  midiChannel,
int  midiNoteNumber,
MPEValue  midiNoteOnVelocity 
)
virtual

Request a note-on on the given channel, with the given initial note number and velocity.

If the message arrives on a valid note channel, this will create a new MPENote and call the noteAdded callback.

◆ pitchbend()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::pitchbend ( int  midiChannel,
MPEValue  pitchbend 
)
virtual

Request a pitchbend on the given channel with the given value (in units of MIDI pitchwheel position).

Internally, this will determine whether the pitchwheel move is a per-note pitchbend or a master pitchbend (depending on midiChannel), take the correct per-note or master pitchbend range of the affected MPE zone, and apply the resulting pitchbend to the affected note(s) (if any).

◆ polyAftertouch()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::polyAftertouch ( int  midiChannel,
int  midiNoteNumber,
MPEValue  value 
)
virtual

Request a poly-aftertouch change for a given note number.

The change will be broadcast to all notes sharing the channel and note number of the change message.

◆ pressure()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::pressure ( int  midiChannel,
MPEValue  value 
)
virtual

Request a pressure change on the given channel with the given value.

This will modify the pressure dimension of the note currently held down on this channel (if any). If the channel is a zone master channel, the pressure change will be broadcast to all notes in this zone.

◆ processMidiAfterTouchMessage()

private

◆ processMidiChannelPressureMessage()

void juce::MPEInstrument::processMidiChannelPressureMessage ( const MidiMessage )

private

◆ processNextMidiEvent()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::processNextMidiEvent ( const MidiMessage message)
virtual

Process a MIDI message and trigger the appropriate method calls (noteOn, noteOff etc.)

You can override this method if you need some special MIDI message treatment on top of the standard MPE logic implemented here.

◆ releaseAllNotes()

void juce::MPEInstrument::releaseAllNotes ( )

Discard all currently playing notes.

This will also call the noteReleased listener callback for all of them.

◆ removeListener()

void juce::MPEInstrument::removeListener ( Listener listenerToRemove)

Removes a listener.

◆ resetLastReceivedValues()

void juce::MPEInstrument::resetLastReceivedValues ( )

Re-sets the pitchbend range in semitones (0-96) to be used for notes when in legacy mode.

◆ setPitchbendTrackingMode()

void juce::MPEInstrument::setPitchbendTrackingMode ( TrackingMode  modeToUse)

Set the MPE tracking mode for the pitchbend dimension.

Set the MPE tracking mode for the timbre dimension.

◆ setZoneLayout()

void juce::MPEInstrument::setZoneLayout ( MPEZoneLayout  newLayout)

Re-sets the zone layout of the instrument to the one passed in.

As a side effect, this will discard all currently playing notes, and call noteReleased for all of them.

This will also disable legacy mode in case it was enabled previously.

◆ sostenutoPedal()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::sostenutoPedal ( int  midiChannel,
bool  isDown 
)
virtual

Request a sostenuto pedal press or release.

If midiChannel is a zone's master channel, this will act on all notes in that zone; otherwise, nothing will happen.

◆ sustainPedal()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::sustainPedal ( int  midiChannel,
bool  isDown 
)
virtual

Request a sustain pedal press or release.

If midiChannel is a zone's master channel, this will act on all notes in that zone; otherwise, nothing will happen.

◆ timbre()

virtual void juce::MPEInstrument::timbre ( int  midiChannel,
MPEValue  value 
)
virtual

Request a third dimension (timbre) change on the given channel with the given value.

This will modify the timbre dimension of the note currently held down on this channel (if any). If the channel is a zone master channel, the timbre change will be broadcast to all notes in this zone.
