# aftouch

aftouch -- Get the current after-touch value for this channel.

## Description

Get the current after-touch value for this channel.

## Syntax

kaft aftouch [imin] [, imax]

## Initialization

imin (optional, default=0) -- minimum limit on values obtained.

imax (optional, default=127) -- maximum limit on values obtained.

## Performance

Get the current after-touch value for this channel. Note that this access to pitch-bend data is independent of the MIDI pitch, enabling the value here to be used for any arbitrary purpose.

## Examples

Here is an example of the aftouch opcode. It uses the files aftouch.orc and aftouch.sco.

Example 1. Example of the aftouch opcode.

    /* aftouch.orc */

    ksmps = 10
    nchnls = 1

    ; Instrument #1.
    instr 1
      k1 aftouch

      printk2 k1
    endin
    /* aftouch.orc */

    /* aftouch.sco */
    ; Play Instrument #1 for 12 seconds.
