Wave display marker that sends midi message

I have a wave file loaded in a sampler which has several markers. How do I achieve (if possible) that when the cursor reaches a marker a midi message is sent. Every marker has different midi message.

Thank You

You can create something like this for different MIDI notes ?

or multiply this for each different messages types:

Following the Midi notes example, you can also use 3 Mapper values modules to mix different message types
1 for message type
1 for code1
1 for code 2

Thanks a lot for your response. It did work but the thing is that the sampler contains several audio files in a list. How do I get different wave displays with different markers for each audio file in the sampler? The idea is to trigger midi internal messages that recall different presets for a song, I can do it using the piano roll but in this case I need to sync the audio sample player with the piano roll, how can I do it?

You can store markers in array and recall them with audio files.

How do I do that?. I have no idea on how to deal with arrays. Could you post an example please?

Why don't using preset to store your markers instead of store array?

Certainly preset manager can store markers for different audio files. My poject has two preset managers that target workspace, the result is a complete mess because when one prset manager controls some settings, like in this case, markers, the other chews it up. I have to find a way to make both preset managers sync in that aspect and at the same time work independently.

It is becoming a nightmare, I've been trying to deal with this projects for months and tried many ideas that for one reason or another don't work. The project is a platform for live performance. It has several functions, it triggers backing tracks audio files (around 50), it also works as a guitar processor using amp sims and VST effects, it is a VST synth triggered via midi as well. All the changes and settings during the performance of a song are controlled by a second preset manager, but it is not that easy, a dedicated preset manager should be needed for each and every song. The old conductor module had a way to do these nicely sice it had BANKS with presets within each bank, so you could assign a bank as a song and presets for the different setting changes i a song (imagine a pedalboard with different patches). It would be great if I could achieve this in Hollyhock.

Loading workspaces as songs is something that I have tried and it works but I really want to avoid this since workspaces are very complex and take too long loading, this is not good in a live situation, besides that sometimes, not very often but it has happened, it crashes usine.

I would be very grateful for any help that could alow me to finish this project, all the stated above is probably the last big issue that I have to resolve, everythin else are details and makeup.

Again, any help on this matter will be greatly appreciated.
