 **(midi status byte (channel ignored))**: a MIDI status byte number in decimals. You can look them up in the [[http://www.midi.org/techspecs/midimessages.php|MIDI messages tables]], the relevant data is in the [[http://www.midi.org/techspecs/midimessages.php#2|second table]]. As the channel on which the events are sent is ignored you should always use the values for channel 1.
-The last three is the range of data that will match.
+**(data1)**: the actual MIDI event message number in decimals. This could be a note on/off event or a control/mode change event for example.
-An example of the [midi-control] section of my .seq24rc file I use with the MPK Mini:
+**(data2 min)**: the minimal value for the filter to match. For note on/off events this is the amount of velocity for example.
+**(data2 max)**: the maximum value for the filter to match.

-What this example does is listening for notes 96 up to and including 111 and it toggles the sequences on note on events and toggles it off on note off events. But what about queuing sequences? Well, the Akai MPK Mini has a Sustain button and I've set this MIDI event up as the queue modifier (see above, the fields after entry 70 which corresponds with 'mod queue'). So when I hold down this button and press one of the pads on my MPK Mini the corresponding sequence gets queued.

+===== Queuing sequences =====
+The Akai MPK Mini has a Sustain button and I've set the Sustain MIDI event (with MIDI status byte 176 and control/mode change number 64) up as the queue modifier in the 'mod queue' entry:
+  # mod queue
+[0 0   0   0   0   0] [1 0 176  64 127 127] [1 0 176  64   0   0]

+===== Final steps =====
+Start seq24 and connect your MIDI controller (File - Options - MIDI Input). Now you should be able to toggle and queue any patterns in your seq24 session if you set up your .seq24rc file correctly.
