Hi, like the title says, I'm trying to connect the oscillator to midi and can't find any way to do it, anyone knows how?

Connecting midi to automatonism oscillator

@alexandros said:
The pitch input in Automatonism takes values between 0 and 1 and multiplies them internally by 127 before sending them to [mtof].
I suspected that raw MIDI input was "funny", from what I remembered. On the other hand my modules do take direct MIDI pitch input. I think automatonism and BEAP in Max made a bad decision in taking the modular purism so seriously trying to enforce a CV control logic into Pd and Max. I took a different approach, trying to get the best of both worlds and not pretend that Pd is a virtual synth like VCV instead of what it is.

@porres oh, I managed to use the insturments, but not the oscillators.
again, I'm wondering if i'll ever be able to use such things, as I understand they are quite basic in music making -
unlike automatonism, if you open the help patch, you'll find a working example that should get you started at least in making noise! See also [pd about.merda] for more.

let me know if you still run into trouble
-
the screenshot didn't go... it's the help file of VCO
let me try again
-
I see help files render better in Vanilla
I don't use plugdata really and it has issues when opening patches that are alligned with vanilla
-
thanks for the help but the thing is, rather than making noise, I'm trying to understand how to route midi notes > osc so that the notes have their fun little on and off thingie
-
But the example also shows that! That is what the keyboard gui sends, midi notes
-
oh thanks mate.
ok seems to be workig
