Description

Illformed's Glitch2 vst effect plugin works fine in LMMS, but not all the settings are directly exposed to LMMS. It relies on midi note messages to change scene/bank settings c0 - g10 / 001 - 128 .
currently there is no way to send these messages to vst effects.
I propose either exposing these to lmms vst, it could possibly even be done using a knob ( which can obviously be automated in a track ) with increments of 0-127 or alternatively an internal effect which will have a trigger/note send [ on/off toggle switch ] and note choice [ knob 0-127 midi notes ] ,( both automatable ) .
thanks Mikobuntu ;)

Research direction

Start by tracing LMMS's VST effect handling and how MIDI note messages are currently routed. The issue names no files or tests; done would require an agreed design and a working, automatable way to send note or controller messages to VST effects, including the requested Glitch2 scene and bank controls.
