I am brand spanking new to max and I am trying to build a pluggo from some code I rummaged from an old post on this forum of an interesting little one shot sampler. I loaded the exported VST in my DAW and it works fine except that when I release the midi note I get a second bang.

There is probably an easy solution but I wouldn't know where to look.

Any help would be appreciated.

If the problem is how to filter out bangs more than one/two...

I have a multi-purpose solution I writed in Javascript

which let you pass trough only one or more elements of lists, numbers or bangs.

Unzip the file and put it into the max folder, so that you can use the JS code

Thanks for trying to help but I am using max 4.

I don't know if max4 has the JS object.
If yes, you can use the code anyway...


I am looking for a native solution to preventing a bang on note off in this patch example I posted. I am brand new to max as of last night.

js should work OK in Max4, and the functions it has sound useful. But in this particular case it's probably not needed...hook up "print" to the inlets coming from your MIDI object and you'll probably see the noteoff messages (same pitch, velocity zero). Use [stripnote] if you want to filter out the second message (noteoff).

If you do want filtering for multiple events, [change] and [onebang] can help.

I added a [> 0] to the note velocity output of [midiparse], this should work; if not, look at [onebang] as seejay suggests:Brendan

Thanks guys. I am struggling to understand how to implement all these suggestions. So far I can't get [stripnote] or [onebang] to work though it sounds like they should work. No matter what I do I get a second bang the second I release my midi key.

I posted it in my first post. The problem does not become apparent until the patch is exported as a plugo and loaded into the host (I am using AudioMulch)

I meant show us how you've added [onebang] or [stripnote] or my suggestion.

Well so far I have been trying about a dozen or more variations using the help files from those suggested objects with no luck. I am at a loss.

It would help if someone with max 4 would test this issue in a VST host with the patch in my original post.

I'm afraid not. Maybe this is a pluggo specific problem or something.

I hang my head in shame. Schoolboy error.

Hey saladfork (and Chris)
I hang my head in shame. Schoolboy error.

Wow! Talk about synchronicity! I was tearing my hair out for hours yesterday trying to solve exactly the same problem - I can hardly wait to try this out! Max is the most amazing and mind blowing program I have ever seen or bought in my life but the learning curve is pretty darn steep despite my best intentions! It is really fantastic to have all you Max brainers and zen masters out there in this forum to help us noobies out! Much appreciated people. I love the creativity and spirit of these forums! Back to my dreams of visual music.....

Take a look at stripnote (and its cousin makenote). Your solution works, but looking at stripnote might help you understand the concept - and its use with makenote can be helpful in some contexts.

Yeah, you could replace the [> 0] and [gate] with [stripnote]. I kept the [> 0] structure because that was what had been floated earlier in the thread.
