I'm using ddg.mono in a project. Unfortunately it doesn't have first note priority. I know most people prefer last note priority (so do I) but ascending scales with low note priority and descending scales with high note priority have a very nice portamento-like feel to it since you have to lift up each previous finger to make the new note sound. First note priority does the same no matter which direction you are playing in (ascending or descending). I guess there must be some old synths that used it.

Does anyone have the slightest clue how to implement it?

first-note-priority

Anyone? :) in other words: the note should sound when all previously played notes are released = first note priority

Save your first note however you'd like, then use [borax] to find out when all notes have been released. Then re-trigger your first note.

thank you for your kind reply. Any ideas how to "save" this first note?

this is what I have so far (thanks to users on this forum). Now I need to get a note off when all notes are finished playing, I have to get rid of differences in velocities, and convert last note priority to first note priority : )

I just finished a perfectly working last-note-priority patch using borax. Now I need to tweak it to have first-note-priority, all help is very welcome!

...this is really difficult, if someone knows how to modify the patch to work as low or high-note priority, that would also help a lot...

suddenly I saw the light :) my first-note-velocity patch is ready, however it uses a metro object to work. I'm sure it shouldn't be there, might consume some cpu as well...if you are a pro max user, please take a look at my patch and see what I'm doing wrong, thanks.

Not that simple I thought at first, and maybe there is a clearer way. You don't need to poll note values every 2ms ;-), but then you have to assure it will work with standard midi instruments (coll naming suggests you want to use it in Live): notes triggered only when needed, no stuck notes, and so on.

thanks! and happy easter to you too! Your patch seems really nice. In fact I don't want to use it in live...I just want to use a max patch with a midi keyboard.
