Hello all!

I'm super new to puredata and could you use some help figuring out a project. Even just point me in the direction of a good tutorial!

I have a MIDI device connected to my computer. I want pd to display a specific PNG image each time it receives a pitch value from the MIDI device. For example, when it receives a pitch input of 50, the computer should display the corresponding filename.png. I cannot for the life of me figure out how to get it to do something like this.

Eventually I would like these png images to print on a thermal receipt printer but I'm getting ahead of myself, at the moment I just want to figure out that first step.

If there are any ideas for how to do this, or even any tutorials you recommend I watch to get this going, that would be amazing!

Thanks in advance!!
