Hi Stephen & others,
I found a solution now for the problem of not being able to route
back data to PhysIn. I am now converting the events to Notes on MIDI
channel 16, cabled them back to PhysIn and using them as MIDI
commands. It works fine now, I can use one knob on my external
controller to move the SPP, another knob to select a tool, another
knob select a screenset etc. Neat! :)

Yes, I've thought about it. That would probably have been my last
solution too. I just wanted to find a way to do that without the
need for external software. It's easier, and it's also less likely
to go wrong one day, for example if you want to use the song on a
different computer.

Thanks, I am doing this now. The reason why I didn't like it is that
it would be nicer to use events that never occur "accidently". I
don't want a melody to trigger my commands, so controllers would
have been better. I don't understand why controllers still don't
work (they simply get lost), but notes do work. I used the highest
possible notes on channel 16 (that I usually don't play on), so it's
still a good solution.
Stephen, have you tried it without MidiPipe yet?
Dennis
