MIDI Learn

MIDI learn provides the ability for almost any CC or NRPN to directly modify any of Yoshimi's available controls. In fact you can also learn some channel mode messages that are given pseudo-CCs. These are Pitch Bend (128), Channel pressure (129), Key pressure (130).

To use this, you hold down the Ctrl key, then right-click on the knob/slider you want to link to. This will pop up either of the two windows below depending whether or not the control is learnable.
