Continuous Controller. Footpedals, breath controllers, and modulation
wheels can vary sounds as you play, thus adding expressiveness. MIDI
allows for 64 continuous controllers (these act like potentiometers in that
you can choose one of many different values) and 58 continuous/switch
(these can act like continuous controllers but some are assumed to
choose between two possible states, such as on/off).
Each type of controller is stamped with its own controller identification
number. Not all controller numbers have been standardized for specific
functions, but the following indicates the current list of assigned
controllers. Numbers in parenthesis indicate the controller range.
