A Message Generator that represents a control that measures its current position using a 7bit value (ie. 128 possible values).

It's defined using the following syntax:
Fader7Bit b0 09 7f b0 09 00

where:

  • b0 09 7f is the maximum value in the range of positions
  • b0 09 00 is the minimum value in the range of positions

A message will be sent between b0 09 00 and b0 09 7f representing the current position of the fader.

Notes:

  • When trying to decide if a Surface control should be represented using Fader7Bit or Encoder, look at what values are actually being sent by the Surface. Fader7Bit expects an absolute value, whereas Encoder expects an increment/decrement value. See this comment from MixMonkey on the forum:

    Use the CSI MIDI in monitor to see what's actually being sent.
    If you see a single value being sent when you turn the control clockwise and another when the control is turned anti-clockwise, go with Encoder.
    If you see a range of values sent when you turn the control (increasing in one direction, decreasing in the other) go with Fader7Bit.
