Hi There,
I was about to ask yesterday on this forum for a way to quickly find a CC number from a translator with a search function in an extensive mapping within Midi Translator. Looking at the manual it mentions a quick filter feature to do so which is not pointed at and succinctly evoqued in the manual but can’t find for the life of me. Is it a not implemented yet feature and I waste my time or would you please be so kind to help me ? I am getting crazy on this !
Thank you 
Hi and welcome back!
The log filter is based on the actual text displayed in the log.
If you select Incoming and type the CC number (in decimal),
then you will see it but only if there is a translator that is in place for that CC number.
In contrast, if you select MIDI IN, you should search for the hex value of the number as MIDI IN and MIDI OUT always show their values as raw hex MIDI. This will show all MIDI messages whether there is a translator used or not.
For instance if you are looking for incoming of CC 20 you would type “20” (without quotes). You may also see other variations of “20” in the filtered results so you may want to make a longer search stream to make it unique.
For MIDI IN, you would search on “14” because 14 is the hex equivalent for decimal 20.
Again the search string will display all line that use your expression so I tend to use longer search strings so I don’t get extraneous output that I do not need.

Hi Steve !
Thank you for your quick answer, I wasn’t expecting it so soon on sunday
What I was thinking was that we’d be able to type a CC number or a variable or any info in a search bar to highlight the presets/translators containing those info. So basically if I understand well at this point I must fiddle with the controller, check the outputs in the midi input log and then filter the list within the log ?
Yes, and if you want to see variable, you would also need to check “rules” as otherwise they will not show.
