Hello, I have a PD patch that uses makenote and noteout to send midi note numbers to amsynth. I can see and connect PD midi out to amsynth midi in and amsynth audio out to system audio in in qjackctl but I get no sound? I do hear sound when I manually trigger the sound in amsynth. I have added the -alsamidi flag at startup. I'm using Mint 18.2 Cinnamon 64-bit. Any suggestions? Tx JoeF

Here is my patch. plotter-parse-xy-midi-out.pd

@lulu_joe13 This might work........... plotter2.pd
You had connected the "velocity" output of [makenote] to the "midi ch select" input of [noteout]......... so you were changing the midi channel every time you tried to send a note.
I hope that is the only problem........... I am using windows so not absolutely certain.
