#### Channel specification
-The MIDI backend supports multiple channel types
+The MIDI backend supports mapping different MIDI events to MIDIMonster channels. The currently supported event types are
* `cc` - Control Changes
* `note` - Note On/Off messages
+* `pressure` - Note pressure/aftertouch messages
+* `aftertouch` - Channel-wide aftertouch messages
+* `pitch` - Channel pitchbend messages
* `nrpn` - NRPNs (not yet implemented)
-A channel is specified using the syntax `channel<channel>.<type><index>`. The shorthand `ch` may be used instead
-of `channel`.
+A MIDIMonster channel is specified using the syntax `channel<channel>.<type><index>`. The shorthand `ch` may be
+used instead of the word `channel` (Note that `channel` here refers to the MIDI channel number).
The earlier syntax of `<type><channel>.<index>` is officially deprecated but still supported for compatability
reasons. This support may be removed at some future time.
-Channels range from `0` to `15`. Each channel consists of 128 notes (numbered `0` through `127`) and 128 CC's
-(numbered likewise), a channel pressure control (also called 'channel aftertouch') and a pitch control.
-Each Note also has an additional pressure value associated with it.
+The `pitch` and `aftertouch` events are channel-wide, thus they can be specified as `channel<channel>.<type>`.
+
+MIDI channels range from `0` to `15`. Each MIDI channel consists of 128 notes (numbered `0` through `127`), which
+additionally each have a pressure control, 128 CC's (numbered likewise), a channel pressure control (also called
+'channel aftertouch') and a pitch control which may all be mapped to individual MIDIMonster channels.
Example mappings:
```
midi1.ch0.note9 > midi2.channel1.cc4
-midi1.channel15.cc1 > midi1.channel0.note0
+midi1.channel15.pressure1 > midi1.channel0.note0
+midi1.aftertouch > midi2.cc0
+midi1.pitch > midi2.pitch
