Hi list!

Im wondering if there is an object which analyses how many keys (both
comps and midi) are pushed at once? its for my arpeggiator patch. im on
linux (64studio)


Hello, 
my first thought would be a simple accumulator:

[n\
|
[+]X[f]
|
...

where 'n' is 1 for each key pressed / note-on, and -1 for each key released/note-off, coming from [keyname] and [notein].
But a problem you may run into if you want to press and hold keys on the keyboard is automatic key repeats, which result in a stream of 0's and 1's from [keyname]'s left outlet.
I wonder if one could work around that within a pd patch...but I havent tried it...
The best way would probably be to turn key repeats off in the os.
gr,
Tim
 
thanx in advance
best regs
