I haven't done much audio with pd so hopefully this is simple. (searched here with no luck)

I want to have people trigger notes in ableton via several sensors.
I'm sending the triggered MIDI notes to ableton via [noteout].
when a person is triggering the sensor the note is ON, and it's OFF when the person is not triggering the sensor.

In ableton i have the arpeggiator effect on.
if i play a regular (akai) midi keyboard now (through ableton and the arpeggiator effect), it works like normal and when i release a key the note stops.

My problem is a note sent from pd repeats and wont stop when released.
if i remove the arpeggiator effect, it plays normally.

why does the arpeggiator repeat from pd, and not with my midi keyboard?
how can i stop it from repeating when being sent from pd?

thanks in advance!!!

@cocobryce Hello..... Maybe you are not sending the "note off" when the sensor is inactive?
You could check with a [print] object to see what is being sent.
Make yourself a test patch maybe to check that the effect is responding correctly.......

(P.S..... post your patch if you cannot find the problem).

Just a small note: You can simplify that test patch (or any other use of the midi out objects) by replacing the triggers and multiple message boxes with three element list messages connected to the first input of the midi output object.

@whale-av - You were right, I was not sending the "note off"

Thanks a lot!
