Can anyone tell me the purpose of midi controller 119. I am unable to find out what it does.

According to the official MIDI list cc119 is "undefined".
Doesn't help does it?

It's true that it is/was an undefined controller in GM standards but these days it's actually most commonly used by sequencers programming with TC-Helicon products like VoiceWorks in mind.
It is used to turn the Voiceworks Global Harmony control off and on ie: 0-63 = off, 64-127 = on.
It has the effect of holding and releasing the harmony "chord" in the sequence.
Some other effects and processors also use this one, usually voice processors. One well-known programmer uses it a lot in his XG sequences.
You can safely delete it from a midi file.
Cheers, Dave.

Thanks for that little gem Dave. And, pray, what is it used for in XG files and who is the programmer? I await enlightenment.  JohnG. |

lol... you'd have to ask him that!
The programmer is Paul Williamson, an Aussie guy who does some great pro sequences and does a lot of XG work for Singlouder.
I think it's a controller he uses when he's recording and mixing his stuff.
It looks like he's assigned it as a chord hold function to me.
Enlightenment? We're all out of that but I think we're expecting some next week!
Cheers, Dave.
