Value 1, Value 2, and Value 3

MIDI events can be composed of different values.

These values have different meanings for different event types:

Note

Value 1 and Value 2 have different meanings for different events. If you set up Value 2 as Filter Target and you enter 64 as Parameter 1, Cubase finds notes with the velocity 64 and controllers with the amount 64. If this is not what you want, you can add an additional filter condition line where you set up Type as Filter Target and specify the event type with Parameter 1.

Note
  • Value 1

    The note number/pitch.

  • Value 2

    The note velocity.

  • Value 3

    The note-off velocity.

Poly Pressure
  • Value 1

    The key that was pressed.

  • Value 2

    The amount of pressure for the key.

Controller
  • Value 1

    The type of controller, displayed as a number.

  • Value 2

    The MIDI controller value.

Program Change
  • Value 1

    The program change number.

  • Value 2

    Not used.

Aftertouch
  • Value 1

    The amount of pressure.

  • Value 2

    Not used.

Pitchbend
  • Value 1

    The tuning of the bend. Not always used.

  • Value 2

    The coarse amount of bend.

VST 3 Event
  • Value 1

    Not used.

  • Value 2

    The value of the VST 3 event parameter. The value range of the VST 3 event (0.0 to 1.0) is transformed into the MIDI value range (0-127), that is, the VST 3 event value 0.5 corresponds to 64. For some operations that require a higher resolution, you can make use of the VST 3 Value Operation parameter.

Note

SysEx (System Exclusive) events do not use Value 1 and Value 2.
