Hello, I'm working on a Midi controller with encoders and buttons.
I haven't recieved the hardware yet, but I'm trying to get a headstart with the code.
I'm wondering, if I want to send a midi note or controlchange (i'm using midiusb.h), hold that button, twist an encoder (encoder.h) and then release the button, is there anything I should keep in mind?
should I use if/else, or just if for the button?
I know this is an open question, but I'm sure someone can help me on my way.
Thanks. Paul
Sorry, is this question for real? 
If pressed, note on
Else note off?
MIDI Events are sent when something changes, so key press/key release could generate 2 events - depending on your midi gears configuration. Usually it's not "XYZ is on/XYZ is off", it's "XYZ got pressed/XYZ is released". Note events are not what they seam: note-off is kind of random an not enforced. Control Change events are more useful, your DAW can at least be configured to do meaningful stuff with them.
Thanks. I guess I could do with control changes, but I need to hold the button, like 'shift' on a keyboard.
How do I do this?
