Hello,

I'm using a writesf~ object for recording all audio signals. My problem is coming from a randomly noteout. How could I connect a noteout to the writesf~ ?

Many thanks

If you want to use [writesf~] then whatever MIDI instrument the [noteout] is controlling must first come in to Pd through [adc~] and then mix it into your arrangement.

Alternatively mix and record the output of Pd and the MIDI synth outside of Pd.

Hello obiwannabe,

my problem is somewhere else. I don't order a midi instrument. It's just a patch which generates a random signal

#N canvas 500 -8 454 304 10;
#X obj 178 22 tgl 15 0 empty empty empty 0 -6 0 10 -262144 -1 -1 1
1;
#X obj 193 202 noteout;
#X obj 241 105 random 1000;
#X obj 116 154 random 128;
#X obj 214 153 random 128;
#X obj 244 57 metro 100;
#X obj 141 115 metro \$1;
#X connect 0 0 5 0;
#X connect 0 0 6 0;
#X connect 2 0 6 1;
#X connect 3 0 1 0;
#X connect 4 0 1 1;
#X connect 5 0 2 0;
#X connect 6 0 3 0;
#X connect 6 0 4 0;

What is [noteout] connecting to?

[noteout] generates MIDI messages. You can't record these to [writesf~] as audio unless something turns them to sound.

noteout is connected to nothing in fact. I just hear a sound signal generated by the noteout object. Anyway, is there an answer to turn on a midi signal into audio ?

I think you want to record the output of your soundcard built in MIDI synthesiser. You need an audio loopback, but I'm not sure this is possible without a physical loopback conector in the soundcard output. A better way may be to use a softsynth that can connect back to Pd [adc~] somehow,

Don't know if this works on linux/mac but on windows you can use the [vst~] object to load vsti effects and instruments. You can send your midi notes to that and record its output. Remember to supply two creation arguments (input channels and output channels respectively) or the object won't create => [vst~ 2 2].

hey guys.
i think i have a similar problem. i want to send events over ctlout (e.g drum events) and midi notes over noteout (piano notes) to ableton (over the virtual MIDI port LoopMIDI). that works fine

now, i'm using the software MidiEditor to record those midi signals, but i only get the events from ctlout, but i also would be interested to get the noteout signals.

any ideas how to accomplish that?
thanks in advance!
cheers manuel
