Re: -- encoders type ? --

Addendum:

With Resolution set to 96/turn, the encoder indeed outputs exactly 96 different values per rotation.
So e.g. for Control Change (Mode = "Absolute"), you get a sequence of 0, 1, 2 ... 96 during the first turn.

With Resolution set to 192/turn, the encoder STILL outputs only 96 different values per rotation.
E.g. the output for Control Change (Mode = "Absolute 14 bits") then becomes 0, 2, 4, ... 192 during the first turn.

So it seems that the encoders provide 96 hardware positions per rotation;
the BCF/BCR then calculates the output value (e.g. Control Change value) by multiplying the hardware position by Resolution and dividing by 96.

Mark.
