Lua - Receive Midi

[RobinC]

I’m currently using Electra to control various functions of Logic Pro X

Am using Pitchbend to map to fader volume using a suggestion from this thread

Pitchbend

For the time being - @RobinC I do that with a Lua function: function handle_slider (valueObject, value) local control = valueObject:getControl() local id = control:getId() local channel = id % 6 local pitch = math.floor( (value * 16383)/100 ) - 8192 midi.sendPitchBend (PORT_1, channel, pitch) end Then assign handle_slider to a virtual parameter slider set values 0 to 100. Maybe this can help you.

This works but I want to sync feedback from Logic to electra so when switching channels the virtual control on electra is set to the correct value

Using Lua - what do I need to look at to interrogate incoming MIDI messages ? Do I then update the Parameter map with my value or do I update the control directly (does updating the parameter map automatically update the control ?)
