Tap tempo with CCs on Nome II

[RockinAndRollin]

Is this on the roadmap? The Nome II has a significant amount of midi implementation but none for tap tempo in CCs. This is a common feature in many midi clocks.

That's a great suggestion, and very easy to implement, thank you
We'll add it on the next release - any suggestions in terms of implementation? I would just choose a MIDI CC number, each message corresponding to a single tap on the TAP button.

I would just choose a MIDI CC number, each message corresponding to a single tap on the TAP button.

Unless you want to allow "tapping" tempo with faders and knobs.



For that, we would need something like "tap range" - i.e. values 125-127, and "release range", i.e. values 0-124 in this case.
A tap would be registered by a sequence of two messages, when the first one is from the "release range" and second one from the "tap range".

I don't understand - why not just sending regular MIDI messages (it can be CCs it could also be something else)?

On your device, everytime you hit a pad/button, it sends MIDI CC 107 value X. On the Nome, everytime a MIDI CC 107 is received, it counts as a tap.

Yes, your implementation is fine for buttons.
I was suggesting a way how to make it possible to tap tempo with knobs / faders. It wouldn't work to count every message as tap for those.
