So I'm basically trying to make this chord device in m4l based on this midi rack device (

https://www.ableton.com/en/blog/holy-scale-chord-progression-rack-8bitbandit/).

 I wanted to do this in m4l because I wanted to learn M4L and because I wanted to expand on it and I needed more knobs basically.

The idea is you hit one note and it'll play a chord. So with default settings hitting C will hit C, E, G. Hitting E will give you E, G, B.

The issue here is that if I hit C (resulting in C,E,G) and hit E while still holding down C, only the B of E,G,B is hit. I guess for whatever reason max or live can't handle 2 note on message on the same not before it sees a note off? The issue I have with this, is the original midi rack which I am basing this off of doesn't have this problem at all.

Could anybody shed some light on this for me? It would be very appreciative!

and here is the javascript code im running 

https://github.com/DJSymBiotiX/Max4LiveScripts/blob/master/polytest/chords.js

I'm sure I could do this as pure max, but I have a programming background so I figured I'd roll some javascript why not.

issues-with-midi-note-on-in-live

ok well I hate to close this topic so quickly, but I guess I found my solution. I decided to just post it here in case anybody else has a similar question.

I decided to just throw a quick midi m4l device after that midi rack I mentioned (holy scale) to look at the midi output of it. Looks like it just sends a note off message for any note that's currently on. I didn't think this was correct, but I guess it is. I modified my design to do that, and it works exactly like the rack.

Sorry for the trouble guys haha. Just getting into max, and just learning.
