Hallo,
I'm new of the Newsgroup.

I'm developig a VB5 application
and I have this problem.

---------

I'm playing a MIDI file
using DirectX (dx7vb.dll);
I'm able to retrieve a lot of info
regarding every playing channel
by using this:

Private Type dxCHANNEL
    PatchChanged As Boolean
    VolumeChanged As Boolean
    Instrument As Integer
    Channel As Integer
    Volume As Integer
    Balance As Integer
    Octave As Integer
End Type

but,
the value I need to retrieve
is another one.

I need to retrieve the value
of the intensity
(that is the key "pressure", if I'm not wrong)
of the note currently played
by each single channel,

to build a sort of
live lightining
(going up and down,
accordingly the
intensity=pressure)
LED console.

(I hope I've decribed well what I mean).
 
------------

How can I retrieve that value
(I need to send a sort of "GetSomeThing" message)?

Also do I need of a Timer cotrol,
or adopt a sort of subclassing routine?

--------------

Thanks
