The attached will take CC of any value in and toggle note 64 out for each CC received. It doesn’t matter the value of the incoming CC.

Here you go. The first translator handles SysEX where incoming value is 0x14 (decimal 20) and toggles CC1 I use gb as the global variable to toggle. The second translator toggles CC2 with the incoming value of 0x18 (decimal 24) I use gc as the global variable to toggle. The third one passes through anything else untouched. We make sure it is not 20 or 24 first.

Hi the operators (== != etc) and rules are all in the [manual,](https://www.bome.com/products/miditranslator/support/manual) however if you don’t speak English it might be difficult for you. You can also get to your manual by F1 or through the help menu of MT Pro. I’m glad you got it working!

well ok, true itsnot my native language… but with all technolgy these day english shouldnt be major problem for me. all i knew from manual its just theres global n local parameter… but thr global one is less information then local one, such as what it stand for? whats affect for or related with? anyway heres bad news nou this topic, i did manage producing CC from Sysex, but when i try to limit it whit rules its only affect if rr\>16. its just keep producing CC even if rr=00, so i have to make adjustment on my vst (thats means have to limiting the scope of my vst) only for this script work. FYI i just set one translator with this so if controller send sysex that not in threshold, i expect incoming==outgoing( nochange at all) . i more prefer to set treshold with range/between operator tho, but i cant find it in manual how to do iy so i just use operator \> or \< . in oyher case steve, i try to convert sysex from rotated knob but syill cant get scale right Can u help me with this? thanks 4 ur enlighment ---

So your SysEX messages have a different value depending on knob or fader rotation? Just take the value of the knob into a local variablefrom the SysEX like this. Take this message F0 42 30 6D 08 4E 00 1C F7 Lets say 1C is the variable from above. Change the incoming to: F0 42 30 6D 08 4E 00 pp F7 Now you have the local variable pp to work with. // Discard ranges you don’t care abount if pp\<0x01 then exit rules skip outgoing action if pp\>0x1c then exit rules skip outgoing action // If you get here you know the variable is \>=1 and \<0x1c // Then use the global variable in pp to determine what you want to do with it.

ok thanks… ill try iy tonight. just to b confirmed: 1.this is the suggestion for scalling sysex rotated knob to CC: F0 42 30 6D 08 4E 00 pp F7 Now you have the local variable pp to work with. 2.this is the suggestion for limitating sysex to CC toogle : / Discard ranges you don’t care about am i right??? thanks again ---

Maybe but it might be that you only want one value so that when it crosses over that value the toggle happens. [Next page](https://forum.bome.com/t/make-switch-button-as-toggle-button/2342.md?page=2)
