- [0001-FIXED-Behavior-for-note_on-velocity-0-note_off-in-al.patch](https://sourceforge.net/p/pure-data/patches/576/attachment/0001-FIXED-Behavi...) (1.5 kB; text/x-patch)
The ALSA implementation of putmidimess replaced "note on" messages with "note off" messages if their velocity=0. This behavior isn't consistent with the OSS implementation.
This patch has removed the special treatment of "note_on",vel=0 messages from the ALSA implementation in s_midi_alsa.c. The patch also generates "note off" messages if they were in the output queue.
REMARK: Currently there is no way to put "note off" messages to the output queue from a pd-patch. I would sugest to implement the special treatment of "note on" messages with vel=0 as an optional behavior of [noteout]. I could imagine two different modes of noteout: mode 1: vel=0 => "note on", vel=0; mode 2: vel=0 => "note off".
