Yes, that's what I want, proper mono mode, with opt. auto glissando when 2+ notes are played.
Maybe it's a feature enhancement.
That's the abstraction I'm working on.
I'm trying to implement a 6-element linked list, with push/pop (front of list), shift/unshift (end of list), and delete... it's possible, but challenging. Lot of work.

> [poly 1 0] means that until its note is released, all incoming notes between onset and offset of the only voice's note should be completely invisible to it (that's what "one-voice polyphony with no voice stealing" should mean, I think). I don't think it should suddenly output the values of another note that happened to have been depressed and held in the meantime. I think what you're looking for is something different from the voice allocation in [poly]; you're looking more for assigning note priority in monophonic instruments. If I'm understanding you correctly, in order to do what you want with [poly], you would need to manage a very large internal polyphony to keep track of all the potential voices that could be being sustained when a voice receives a note off.
