I have a MPK49 controller and a Yamaha XS Rack module. For example... I have 4 'patches' or whatever people are calling them now.

So,

MIDI 02 : Kick/snare
MIDI 03 : Hats
MIDI 04 : Toms
MIDI 05 : Synth lead... etc...

I would like to map the volume for each of these channels - to a set of sliders on the controller.

CC 07 is "Volume" ( but it's seems to be just master volume )

On the MPK, I take the fist slider, and set it to MIDI CH 2a : 007
The second: MIDI CH 3a : 007 and so on.

Either I'm reading it wrong, or my XS Rack data sheet is incorrect. What should be cutoff - seems to map to release etc... not really sure what is going on.

Bottom line is, I would like to map each slider to it's respective patch / MIDI CH - and control the volume... of only that CH.

Any help?
