Send polyphonic aftertouch (per-note pressure).

Poly Aftertouch macro

When to use it

Use POLY AT (polyphonic aftertouch) when the destination expects per-note pressure (0xA0). Set Note to the MIDI note (shown as a name using Middle C), then min/max for the 0–127 pressure range.

Parameters

ParameterRangeWhat it does
ModeMacro output type. Change this to switch between MIDI, internal routing, and CV16 targets.
NoteNote nameMIDI note that receives polyphonic aftertouch pressure. Shown as a note name using Settings → MIDI Settings → Middle C (default: MIDI 60 = C3). Encoder still steps MIDI 0–127. The knob maps pressure 0–127 on this note.
MinimumMode-specificValue sent when the knob is at minimum travel. Units follow the target (MIDI 0–127, 14-bit 0–16383, device parameter native range, CV volts, LFO %, etc.).
MaximumMode-specificValue sent when the knob is at maximum travel. Must be greater than or equal to Minimum.
ChannelGlobal, 1 – 16MIDI channel for outgoing messages. Global uses the project's global channel setting.
InvertTrue / FalseWhen True, knob clockwise motion maps to decreasing values (minimum ↔ maximum swapped).
OutputsUSB / DIN / combosWhich physical MIDI outputs carry this macro: USB, Out 1, Out 2, or combined masks.
