Messages
bang
Immediately sends note-offs for any pitches that have passed through as note-ons but not as note-offs by sending 0 out its right outlet followed by a pitch value out its left outlet.
int
The number is treated as the pitch value of a pitch-velocity pair and the note is sent out.
- pitch
[int]
(inlet1)
The number is stored as the velocity to be paired with numbers received in the left inlet.
- velocity
[int]
clear
In left inlet: Erases any numbers held by flush, without sending any note-offs.
Output
int
Out left outlet: The output is the pitch of the note-on or note-off.
Out right outlet: The number is the velocity of the note-on or note-off.
The flush object keeps track of the notes that have passed through it. When a bang is received in the inlet, note-off messages are provided for any notes that have passed through as note-ons only.
