Bank

This is an example that demonstrates the use of Banks.

Boards:

AVR, AVR USB, Due, Nano 33, Teensy 3.x

Banks allow you to use a single control for many different actions. By changing the bank setting, you can change the address of a MIDI Element.

In this example, we will use two potentiometers to control the volume of eight MIDI channels by using four banks.

The setup is as follows:

═══════════   ─╮             ═════════════════
 Channel 1     │              Potentiometer 1
──────────     │  Bank 1      ────────────────
 Channel 2     │              Potentiometer 2
═══════════   ─┤             ═════════════════
 Channel 3     │              Potentiometer 1
──────────     │  Bank 2      ────────────────
 Channel 4     │              Potentiometer 2
═══════════   ─┤             ═════════════════
 Channel 5     │              Potentiometer 1
──────────     │  Bank 3      ────────────────
 Channel 6     │              Potentiometer 2
═══════════   ─┤             ═════════════════
 Channel 7     │              Potentiometer 1
──────────     │  Bank 4      ────────────────
 Channel 8     │              Potentiometer 2
═══════════   ─╯             ═════════════════

When Bank 1 is selected, Potentiometer 1 controls Channel 1, and Potentiometer 2 controls Channel 2.
When Bank 2 is selected, Potentiometer 1 controls Channel 3, and Potentiometer 2 controls Channel 4.
When Bank 3 is selected, Potentiometer 1 controls Channel 5, and Potentiometer 2 controls Channel 6.
When Bank 4 is selected, Potentiometer 1 controls Channel 7, and Potentiometer 2 controls Channel 8.

To select the active bank, you can either use the Bank::select method, or you can use one of the many Selectors.
In this example, we'll use an IncrementDecrementSelector. It has one push button to increment the bank setting, and one push button to decrement the bank setting.

To display which bank is currently active, you can use the Selectors with LED feedback in the Selectors LEDs module, or you can write your own callback that gets called when the setting changes. The latter is demonstrated in the Custom-Selector-Callback.ino example.

Connections

• 2: momentary push button (to ground)
• 3: momentary push button (to ground)
• A0: wiper of a potentiometer
• A1: wiper of a potentiometer

Connect the left terminal of the potentiometer to ground, and the right one to V_CC.
The internal pull-up resistors for the buttons will be enabled automatically.

Behavior

• Press the Bank selector buttons while turning the potentiometers. Notice how the channel of the MIDI messages changes when you change the Bank, as explained above.

#include <Control_Surface.h> // Include the Control Surface library
 
// Instantiate a MIDI over USB interface
USBMIDI_Interface midi;
 
// Instantiate four Banks, with two tracks per bank. 
// Compare these numbers to the diagram above.
Bank<4> bank(2);
//   │       └───── number of tracks per bank
//   └───────────── number of banks
 
// Instantiate a Bank selector to control which one of the four Banks is active.
IncrementDecrementSelector<4> selector = {
    bank,       // Bank to manage
    {2, 3},     // push button pins (increment, decrement)
    Wrap::Wrap, // Wrap around
};
 
// Wrapping around means that if you're in Bank 4 and you press the increment 
// button, you wrap back around to Bank 1. Similarly, if you're in Bank 1 and
// you press the decrement button, you wrap back around to Bank 4.
// The alternative to Wrap::Wrap is Wrap::Clamp. In that case, pressing the 
// increment button when you're in Bank 4 won't do anything, you'll stay in 
// Bank 4. If you're in Bank 1 and press the decrement button, you'll stay in 
// Bank 1.
 
// Instantiate two potentiometers for the volume controls.
Bankable::CCPotentiometer potentiometer1 = {
  {bank, BankType::CHANGE_CHANNEL},     // bank configuration

  {MIDI_CC::Channel_Volume, CHANNEL_1}, // address
};
Bankable::CCPotentiometer potentiometer2 = {
  {bank, BankType::CHANGE_CHANNEL},     // bank configuration
  A1,                                   // analog pin
  {MIDI_CC::Channel_Volume, CHANNEL_2}, // address
};
 
// The addresses specified here are the addresses for the first Bank.
// The addresses used in the other Banks are derived from these base addresses
// by adding the number of tracks of the bank to the base address.
// For example, in Bank 1, the first potentiometer will send on Channel 1, 
// in Bank 2, the first potentiometer will send on Channel 1 + 2 = Channel 3, 
// because 2 is the number of tracks in the Bank.
// 
// The bank setting can affect the Channel (as in this example), the address, or
// the MIDI USB Cable Number. You can change this behavior by changing the 
// BankType in the bank configuration above to `BankType::CHANGE_ADDRESS` or 
// `BankType::CHANGE_CABLENB`.
