Sending MIDI note messages

Press the ‘Note’ button to enable sending of MIDI note messages. Both note on and note
off messages can be generated. The three drop-down menus select the behaviour of the
plug-in in terms of when messages are sent.

Where a ‘gate signal’ is referred to below, this is taken from the CV entering the opposite
plug-in channel. So for example if you’re using the plug-in’s left channel to generate MIDI
note messages, its gate signal is taken from the CV input to the right channel, and vice
versa.

The gate signal is described as being either ‘open’ or ‘closed’. It is open when its value ex-
ceeds the value set by the ‘Threshold’ knob.

The ‘Note On’ menu selects between the following options for sending note on messages:

Continuous - a new note on message is sent whenever the incoming CV changes
enough to select a new note number (this is analogous to how CC messages are gen-
erated, as described above).

Gate Only - a new note message is sent when the gate signal changes from closed to
open.

Gated - notes are sent as in Continuous mode, but only when the gate signal is open.

The ‘Note Off’ menu selects between the following options for sending note off messages:

None - no note off messages are sent.

Normal - a note off message is sent for the preceding note immediately before any
new note on message.

Legato - a note off message is sent for the preceding note immediately after any new
note on message.

The ‘Gate Close’ menu selects what message is sent when the gate signal goes from open
to closed. The options are:

None - the closing gate does note cause any message to be sent.

Note Off - the closing gate causes a note off message to be sent for the preceding
note.
