[18:17] <goldtopj> Hey hi ovenwerks you there?
[18:20] <goldtopj> will come back another time hope all well
[20:21]  * OvenWerks just didn't have the right window visible
[20:36] <Eickmeyer> OvenWerks: They waited for < 3 minutes.
[20:38] <OvenWerks> That too.
[20:39] <OvenWerks> But I waited > than 2 hours
[20:39] <OvenWerks> ;)
[20:39] <OerHeks> did you followed the midi 2 presentation?
[20:40] <OerHeks> more channels, more clocks, more this and better that ..
[20:40] <OerHeks> .. too much for me
[20:40] <OvenWerks> No, I didn't happen to see it.
[20:41] <OvenWerks> OerHeks: The main advantage of more channels/resolution is that it allows standardizing non-note data
[20:51] <OvenWerks> OerHeks: for example, look at the mackie control which uses "Note" messages for switches, But has to use more than half of all possible pitch shift controls for only 9 faders... max possible would be 16.
[20:53] <OvenWerks> OerHeks: with MIDI2 the same thing could be done with all CCs for faders... even 1000s of faders
[20:53] <OvenWerks> each note can have it's own pitch shift
[20:56] <OerHeks> yeah, i was surprised by the announcement
[20:56] <OerHeks> midi 2
[20:57] <OvenWerks> MIDI2 has been in the works for a number of years now
