I uploaded a harmonic rotator I built. It works ok but I have a problem with stuck midi notes. If I play too fast or slur the notes stick.
If anyone has any ideas on how to relieve this problem they would be welcome.

to use it you must send to a multi channel synth like omnisphere or lush 101. Put each voice on a different midi channel.

it appears the problem lies in note off messages. I am trying to understand why a particular error keeps occurring. if I slur with the rotator the note off messages for the first group of notes doesn't match the note ons. EX

ON 60 c1
ON 55 c2
ON 50 c3
ON 45 c4

(next note reattacked without letting go of the first key)

ON 59 c1
ON 52 c2
ON 48 c3
ON 42 c4

letting go of the key

OFF 59 c1
OFF 52 c2
OFF 48 c3
OFF 42 c4

OFF 60 c1
OFF 53 c2
OFF 49 c3
OFF 43 c4

as you can see some off the note offs are being generated incorrectly. I have no idea why. it only happens when I slur.
Does any genius know why this is happening or how to fix it?


it seems that inside the subpatch "rotator strip V2" there is a transpose script where the note ons and offs pass through. This is where the problem lies. Because the transpose inlet has a fader connected to it that is changing with a step module the note offs are getting messed up.

I wish I could fix it... hmmm
thanks for letting me think out loud!

I guess to get rotating voicings this is not the best way.

Perhaps if there was a way to make a rule that a midi note ON must be followed by a note OFF before a new note ON is played.
Make monophonic would that script work?

In Sequins I arranged this using the Transform MIDI module. I guess it will take some tweaking for your case, but you just Transform it to Note OFF and trigger it when the next note is pressed. Hope it helps!

I will take a look at sequins 1 and see if I can figure out what you mean exactly. Thanks

although I almost answered the question myself the problem is now solved!
yes as I suspected the make monophonic script solved the issue I had.

I might try something like that. I've had problems like this and often put a repeating auto note off module on midi inlets so that any lingering midi notes that get stuck will be shut off the following bar.
