midi note off from Finale notation
How to find Midi note off command, which is duration, from a Finale notation file. This is triggering my own samples in a Max patch.
to find it where ?
in midi , xml, musicxml, mus ? finale had/has different file formats
if you export file as midi, you can read it into seq in max and play,
Thanks for responding. The Finale is a .musx file, but I'm not trying to save it as a midifile, but rather to play the score in real time, using sounds that come from a Max patch. The .wav files are part of a sflist~ and it triggers fine with the notein object coming from Finale.app Output 1 and using select to have the correct midi pitch # send an on message 1 (play).
However, if I want to play a 16th note, how do I get the sound sample to cut off? Essentially send a message 0 (stop) works, but this has to be done with Finale’s rests. I think makenote would be the object to use, because it contains duration info in the right inlet; can this be a live variable number, ticks or 16n ?
Does the Global Transport need to be receiving tempo and durational midi info from Finale?
I know I’m close, but the solution eludes me. Any ideas how this is done?
why don't you use note off to stop playback ?
using short fades you can also create sample volume using velocity.
for exampe note 44 wih velocity 112 starts playback of sample 44
(or whatever you mapped note to) with level 1 / 127 * velocity.
note 44 0 (note off) fades level to 0. and stops playback at fade end.
That can be also done using poly~ as sampler.
