Since that’s not even a legal channel number, I’m wondering if this is a bug.

Channel numbers in objects like [ctlin] are really the MIDI port + channel number:

1: channel 1 on port 1
2: channel 2 on port 1
...
17: channel 1 on port 2
18: channel 2 on port 2
...

27: channel 11 on port 2

Are you sure that you're receiving on channel 2? Note that the second outlet of [midiin] gives you the port number, not the channel number! That would explain why you see 2.

Hello,

I’ve connected a Behringer X-Touch Mini to PD (0.50-2) on OS X Catalina, and the raw data coming into [midiin] looks fine, but the [ctlin] and [notein] objects are reporting a channel of 27 (it should be 2). Since that’s not even a legal channel number, I’m wondering if this is a bug.

Best,
