# outipat

outipat -- Sends polyphonic MIDI aftertouch messages at i-rate.

## Description

Sends polyphonic MIDI aftertouch messages at i-rate.

## Syntax

outipat ichn, inotenum, ivalue, imin, imax

## Initialization

ichn -- MIDI channel number (1-16)

inotenum -- MIDI note number (used in polyphonic aftertouch messages)

ivalue -- floating point value

imin -- minimum floating point value (converted in MIDI integer value 0)

imax -- maximum floating point value (converted in MIDI integer value 127 (7 bit))

## Performance

outipat (i-rate polyphonic aftertouch output) sends polyphonic aftertouch messages. It works only with MIDI instruments which recognize them. It can drive a different value of a parameter for each note currently active.

It can scale an i-value floating-point argument according to the imin and imax values. For example, set imin = 1.0 and imax = 2.0. When the ivalue argument receives a 2.0 value, the opcode will send a 127 value to the MIDI OUT device. When the ivalue argument receives a 1.0 value, it will send a 0 value. i-rate opcodes send their message once during instrument initialization.

Thanks goes to Rasmus Ekman for pointing out the correct MIDI channel and controller number ranges.
