14-bit MIDI


14 bit MIDI - High resolution MIDI message format.

To use this feature, you must change the control element's resolution and maximum possible value. This can be done by dropping a Potmeter Mode action block under the Setup event.

Due to the noisy nature of high resolution signal reads from control elements, we recommend to stay below 11-bit resolution.

  • 7-bit resolution (base MIDI): 2^7 = 128
  • 8-bit resolution: 2^8 = 256
  • 9-bit resolution: 2^9 = 512
  • 10-bit resolution: 2^10 = 1024
  • 11-bit resolution: 2^11 = 2048
  • 12-bit resolution: 2^12 = 4096

Please note, as the least significant bit (LSB) and most significant bit (MSB) calculations happen in the background with a CC offset of 32, the second parameter CC number can't be larger than 95.
