i'm pretty much a total newb when it comes to these things, so i thought i'd ask beforehand:

is it possible in SM to create a vst that converst mouse-wheel to midi cc? preferably with an option to even do its thing when the vst isn't in focus?

i've got an app that needs to be in focus to work, but i'd still like to use the mouse-wheel for midi cc...

cheers, fabian

There's no mouse wheel primitive... so I don't think it's possible right now.

k, thanks... i'll go ask some of the synthedit gurus, then. i know it's possible in there, at least as far general mouse wheel to midi cc goes. not sure if it can be made to work when the plug's interface isn't in focus. hope so

    Open it in SynthMaker?

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
