unpacking midiparse

hthaw's icon

a simple question that i seem to be struggling with:
i've got MIDI coming into Max via midiin, directed into midiparse. i would like to be able to break up the polyphonic chords via something like unpack. i would imagine something like borax or poly would be useful in this process, but i'm not sure how to apply it.

thanks!

1.) actually connect something which sends midi data into maxmsp.

2.) find out that MIDI is a serial protocol, and chords are already coming in as single notes.

understand that MIDI is a serial protocol with chords coming in as single notes - not sure how to display them as such, into integer boxes.

i can stack a bunch of poly objects - but i'm hoping there is still a better way..
