Hello, I am wondering if it’s possible to round values generated by a Midi controller.  
For instance, given

kmidctrl\_1\_1 ctrl7 1, 1, 0, 10  
outvalue “ctrl1\_1”, kmidctrl\_1\_1

I’d like to have (and display) values with only one decimal after the integer number.

Thank you for your help.

Hi!

One trick is  
outvalue “ctrl1\_1”, int(kmidctrl\_1\_1 \* 10) / 10
