Mapper(value) question

[AndrewChi]

While patching in Hollyhock I discovered that the new Mapper-module for values has its ARRAY-out only on the output-section. In the former Usine, it used to be both on the input side (left).
I want to get incoming midi NOTE ON flow, mapped to a dynamic array.
It is impossible to connect something to the OUT VALUES-array, which was in fact the point of this module I thought?
So, is there another way to easily map incoming values to constantly changing new numbers from an array?
Is this a bug in the Mapper-module, or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for tips & tricks!!!

hi i think i made a patch that do this operation but i'm not sure to understand what you really need ?
do you mean you want to transform incoming midi note in a array of 128 vélocities (one index by note) ?

What I'm trying to make is:
-an incoming stream of midi notes
-an outgoing stream of 'mapped' notes, like a scale or something.
Important is that the scale should be DYNAMIC! I want it derived from the last notes I was playing. This already works, there is no problem there, I only want to get this constantly changing 'out values' in the mapper module (or other solution!!!

ex.:
midi note 60, 61, 62 and 63 are played.
I want it to output: 60, 60, 62 and 62, based on a given scale (which is slowly changing based on incoming notes.

I used to do it by unpacking the MIDI, extracting only code 1 (note value), put it in the mapper module (input values 1)
and then map it to the values specified in output values (formerly on input 2: output values).
I have already found a solution using a dispatcher and a step-sequencer, but I think it is less elegant and doesn't work as easy as using the way the mapper used to work...

In fact in my practical patch, I first map the incoming midi notes to 12 values for the chromatic scale, so I only get 12 values (60 = 72 = ...)
but the principle & the problem are the same...

Thanks for any help joffo78!

It's a mistake, in the next version 1.03 "out values" will available as inlet.

Great! looking forward for the new release!

Thanks senso.

Speaking of.... the 'grid number' on the grid object is an input. Shouldn't this be an output?
