Hello, there!
Here's the abstraction which should calculate incoming midi numbers and output them as a midi note names.
Example:

Midi number 60
l
l
l
[notoname]
l
l
l
C4 <--- symbol box here

I'm sure that there's more elegant way to convert numbers to symbols. But, that's how the newbies do. In the patch, there are several, instead of one [sel] object, I did it that way because I found it impossible to wire it's outputs when they are so close together. Any suggestion is welcome.

pooor bastard someone should have told you about the modulo operation and message generation
example:
input a number x from 0 to 100
a=x%5
b=int(x/5)
then you can select 0 - 4 and send |a( |b( ... |e(
put this and b into a pack which is connected to
| $1$2 (
and you should get for
x=3, C0
x=55, A11

thank you, slur!
I must admit that I don't understand your explanation. I even cannot find anything about message generation in the help file. Will you, please, attach a patch with the example?
Thank you very much!
