In order to translate the normalized [1,0] output to the range [1,3] you would use the Math Expression patch. In the settings put the equation "(1-a)*2+1". Connect the MIDI Notes Receiver patch output port to the input port of the Math Expression patch, and use the output port to encode whatever it is that you want to have the range [1,3].

Your question is quite cryptic. Both your original question and this followup provide little to guide us. Try explaining yourself in more detail.

you can add an interpolation patch. set its start value to 0 and end value to 3, then right click and set to external time base. this will produce an input called patch time. feed your 0-1 range into patch time. set loop to mirror. now anything you feed into patch time will be scaled to 0 - 3 range. see attached comp...
