Hi, I'm building some MIDI bass pedals but I'm having a little bit of trouble. My pedals are definitely sending MIDI data, but it's not notes. I used MIDI Monitor to check the values, and for each pedal I get something like B0 26 7F , with a different number in the middle for each pedal that I play. Do you know what this means, and/or how to get my pedals to send note values? Thanks.

That 3 bytes message can be translated as:
- B0 Hex is Control Change message (channel 0). See Table of MIDI messages
- 26 Hex is "LSB for Control 6 (Data Entry)"- See Table of control change messages
- 7F Hex is a value
To produce Note On messages you need to send 90 hex as the first byte, the note number as the second one, and a velocity value for the third. My suggestion for you is to familiarize with the MIDI specification. See the link to "MMA Specifications" at the bottom of this site pages.
