Monitor

A small MIDI utility to transpose and route midi messages through the Norns. I have this AKAI midi keyboard that cannot connect directly into my Elta Polivoks, I usually run it through my laptop, but I figured it might be more fun to simply go through the Norns instead.

The issue was that the Поливокс only listens to one channel, I needed to give my keyboard the power to target a specific channel, and also down-transpose -24 so it aligns with that weird russian specs. I hope this comes in handy to someone else. :)

Enjoy!
