HI forum,
I am currently using a pd patch to take incoming MIDI values from a drum pad, manipulate them, and pipe them into another program for sound generation. Unfortunately, my drum pad seems to be constantly sending MIDI clock information. Here's a screenshot to view incoming MIDI messages to my system.
In my patch, I use a custom abstraction to "learn" MIDI notes coming into pd. Basically, when I enable my abstraction to "learn", I tap a note on my MIDI keyboard or drum pad and it instantly becomes mapped to that abstraction. It's basically a really easy way to set the arguments for [notein], [ctlin], etc. However, this MIDI timing signal is screwing everything up. Now when I try to "learn" a MIDI note, the note "0" from channel "10" keeps triggering before I even have a change to tap my keyboard or drum pad.
Any idea how I should filter this out? I would like to just ignore all messages from channel 10, but that's where all my actual note data comes in as well.
