panning value not displayed correctly

[ssoo]

when I use midi file, panning value is not displayed correctly.

 

Sound Canvas recognizes CC#10(Pan) 1(left)-64(center)-127(right). 0 is random pan that cannot be set through CC message.

but cakewalk recognizes CC#10 value 64 as "1% R" panning. If I double-click it and set to "0% C", but no change in file. It is still 64.

CC#10 value 64 should be displayed "0% C", not "1% R".

 

When I set CC#10 value "1", but cakewalk recognizes "98% L".

CC#10 value 1 should be displayed "100% L".

 

I think the problem is:

cakewalk recognizing Pan value as 0(left)-??(center)-127(right)

It should be:1(left)-64(center)-127(right).

Is there any option to set this?

easy to understand example

The value range *is* 0-127 (7 bits) so there is an even number of values, therefore by definition, there isn't a middle value to be centre.

official midi 1.0 spec states 64 is center 🤷‍♀️

Fair enough - it's mathematically wrong but...pfft.  Standards.

Midi 1.0 spec and Roland manual says 64 is center, but not recognized as center in cakewalk.

This error has been around for a long time, and should be fixed.
