How do you control it?¶
Find the MIDI ports, then start the bridge with this driver:
osc-bridge detect # prints the ready-to-run line for what is plugged in
osc-bridge run --device devices/m-vave/fm-1.vendor.fw-waveloop-1.0.5.2-midi23.json --out-port <N> --in-port <M>
Then send OSC to 127.0.0.1:7777, for example:
From Claude or any MCP client, the osc-bridge mcp server exposes this driver as fm1_waveloop: ask “what can the M-VAVE FM-1 do?” and it reads this map with list_routes. See the MCP guide.

Limitations¶
WaveLoop FM-1 1.0.5.2-midi23 by ELI7VH (GPL-3.0), a instrument firmware for the FM-1. Old Felucca 1.0.5.2 base: no MIDI learn, no Program Change (no 0xC0 branch), no CH5-8/9-12/13-16 blocks (ROUT CH1-4 or SEL only), no CC5 glide, no CC71/CC74 engine resonance/brightness; Map built for an Arturia MiniLab 3 (controllers/Felucca.minilab3): CC19 DJ filter, CC20-27 engine E1-E8, CC28-31 HOME knobs, CC70 sustain, CC76 LFO rate, CC90 distortion, CC17 drum volume; CC7 on channels 1-4 always addresses track 1-4 (also in SEL), with a concave fader taper; Channel 16 is a control channel: notes 36-43 = momentary performance pads (Alt, repeat 1/16, 1/32, reverse, tape stop, freeze, oct up/down), CC110/111 setlist song prev/next; Global CCs on any channel: CC106 stop, CC107 play, CC108 record, CC109 tap; CC112/114 relative engine/preset browse; CC115 displayed-track step; Alt layer (ch16 note 36 held): CC19/21/22 = LFO rate / filter depth / wave; CC28/29/30/76 = ADSR (FM6: ALG/FB/MRAT/MEG); CC7 = delay+reverb send; DRUM tracks retarget CC21/22/23/76/17 to the selected drum lane's pan/reverb/delay/volume; Editor protocol adds command 74 SETLIST and 75 DIAG (74 is FM6 bank begin in Felucca 1.6.1); Version string differs: source default v1.0.5.2, release builds vX.Y-suffix. Channels: ROUT CH1-4 (default): MIDI ch 1-4 -> tracks 1-4, ch 5-15 ignored, ch 16 reserved for pads/setlist/panic; ROUT SEL: every channel -> selected track. USB and TRS share state. Pitch bend: 14-bit, RPN 0 range 0-24 st + 0-99 cents, default 2 st. Aftertouch: channel aftertouch = AT mod source. Clock: clock in INT/USB/TRS (F8/FA/FB/FC) as Felucca; no clock out. MIDI out: USB: panel key notes on the track's channel (fixed velocity 100); no CC1 out, no clock out. NRPN: none (CC98/99 only cancel RPN selection). SysEx `F0 7D 46 4C`: Felucca editor protocol (INFO, GET/SET, presets, user presets, backup 64-67, FM6 68-71) plus 74 SETLIST and 75 DIAG; no FM6 bank 74-77 commands. SysEx `F0 43`: no raw DX7 parser (usb.c has no fm6_sx_byte). SysEx `F0 00 32 45`: vendor update protocol, handshake answers FELUCCA_ID. Identity: vendor identify: release build FM-1_9XY from --release X.Y -> FM-1_910 for 1.0.5.2-midi23 (dev build FM-1_900); editor INFO "FELUCCA v1.0.5.2-midi23" (README: INFO FELUCCA v1.0.5.2-midiNN); USB name "Felucca" (loader "Felucca Update").
Frequently asked questions¶
How many parameters of the M-VAVE FM-1 can be controlled over MIDI?
SynthHub's map of the M-VAVE FM-1 lists 45 MIDI CC parameters, each with its number, range and a readable name; the full chart is on this page.
Can an AI agent like Claude control the M-VAVE FM-1?
Yes: SynthHub's hosted MCP server knows the M-VAVE FM-1's MIDI map, and its browser relay lets the agent send it parameter changes or load a sound, each sound change confirmed by you.
