Here is what I want do do and can't manage to do :

I want to control synth in Reaktor with a joystick. This will be done with note on/off messages as those synth are dedicated to be played with a keyboard.

I attached my patch

The issue is that it keeps notes on. I would like it to note off a note before triggering another note. And that goes very fast with a jystick It will be monophonioc, i.e. only one note played at a time.

The thing is to send a velocity 0 value before triggering another note. And with a joystick, each time you tuch it it sends a huge flow of note on in a glimps. I want each note on on a specific tune (everything on midichannel 1 to be simpler) to be "offed" ie velocity 0 before sendng the next note on message.

Yop,

you could use a [poly 1 1] object. First argument is 1 for 1 voice (monophony), and the second one is 1 again, setting 'voice stealing'. The latter exactly makes what you were describing : it automatically sends a 'noteoff' message to the last note beeing played to shut it down when a new notes comes in input.

This modified version of your patch is an example, but I didn't tested it (don't know from which library [joystick] comes from, and didn't wanted to go further).
should work though.

Thanks, that works ..... almost !

The problem is that it keeps "note on" the last triggered note. It shuts down notes when I move the joystick with trigger on (=1) but it keeps playin the lst note triggered when I release the trugger (=0).

I think thet the best thing to do would be, but I don not know how to do it, I tried all morning..., to trigger only the note at the pitch indicated by the joystick X axis when the joystick's trigger is activated, and do not play any other note while trigger on. And of course shut off the note when the trigger (of the joystick) is released.

I attached my joytick object in case ...

In fact that would be like a gate that is closed after receiveing the first number of the number flow sent by the jiystick.

Dont know if I understood you right
