Here is the patch itself:

– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –

and here is the contents of poly~:

– Pasted Max Patch, click to expand. –

What I want to happen is that when the first or second toggle at the top of the main patch are pressed, a note gets played out of the poly~, when the toggle is deactivated (and spits out a 0) I would like it to trigger a fade out for the sample that was just triggered within the same poly instance. Apart from sounding obviously wrong things seem to be acting a bit weird, I have hooked up the first toggle to a [mutemap 1] and a [busymap 1] message to see what is going on in the poly~ objects and it seems that two poly~ instances are being used every time a toggle gets pressed, you can see this being printed into the max window. I really am stuck on this one, any help would be greatly appreciated!!

The [sel 1 2 0] object at the beginning of my main patch is integral. [sel] will receive either a 1 or a 2 followed by a 0 before another 1 or 2 (and consequent 0) is received. As you can see from the main main patch i posted I have tried to store the “48″ and “55″ numbers as they are triggered by the [sel 1 2 0] object into an [i] object, that object then awaits the arrival of a bang from the 0 output of the [sel 1 2 0] object. The intention was that the [t 48 1] and [t 55 1] object would bind the 1 to the note numbers and then the [i] would bind the 0 to the same note number when it was consequently received. I thought that [_midinote] would filter out the repetitions but it doesn’t seem to be working that way!

Heres a slightly different version of my main patch, it better equates the input that the poly will be receiving:

I think the main issue with your control scheme is in your use of [pak]. This is causing a doubling of input to [poly~], one message when the velo byte comes in and one for the note. Changing this to [pack} removes this.

I just do not understand why the [prepend midinote] message is not filtering out the double triggering of the note, I can’t see how what I am sending it could be interpreted any other way but note on – note off! Just so that everything is current and not spread out over this thread here is the poly patch again:

and here is the main patch (I noticed that I was using the Jasch object [_] instead of the [prepend] object, here it is with the standard objects only) :

Assuming anything about how the voice allocation occurs is asking for trouble.

The version of your patch that I’m using seems to work OK. I’ve added a bunch of print statement to show what is being requested.
