midiflush
Send MIDI note-offs for hanging note-ons
Description
Analyzes a raw MIDI stream (from midiin or seq), counting the number of note-ons received for each note and MIDI channel. When it is sent a bang , MIDI note-off messages are sent for any notes which have not been turned off.
Discussion
This object is useful in conjunction with seq, which doesn't turn its notes off when it receives the stop message. At all times, midiflush echoes its input to output.
