I am working now with the xeq extensions, it's really great, but I don't know, how could I reverse a sequence. I couldn't find much infos on locators, maybe it would help, how to do it. Do you have an idea? If it works, I would like to solve the problem with xeq, but if you have an other idea to simply manipulate a list, would be also Ok. Thanx Saby
hi Saby,
no, there is no reverse playback feature in xeq, and I do not know about any workaround for retrograding. Even worse -- there is no notion of a note (just atomic midi or non-midi events), so plain reversing of a sequence would not do any good, musically.
Yeah... I have promised a new release with basic facilities for processing notes, and lots of other improvements, mainly concerning time and tempo. But it has been hampered by my inability to make a general design likely to stay around for good.
Dealing with time is the main yet undiscovered area for Pd...

Krzysztof,
Thanks again for cyclone-- it's truly wonderful to have these objects available in PD.
A few questions about prob, all of which relate to what it prints to the standard error window.
First, is there a way to stop prob from printing "prob's error: no state n" every time a state with no data is reached? I understand that this is a handy debugging tool, but I'm generating Markov chains from material analyzed on-the-fly and the constant error message is pretty annoying.
Also, is there a good way to capture all of a prob's data? "Dump" prints it to the display but if there are a lot of possible states it simply scrolls off the screen...
Thanks again for all the help, Greg

hi Greg,
there is the embedding feature pending to be added to prob, so once it is done, prob's data will get captured in a .pd file.
Other than that, I have tried to mimic max as close as possible. Some way of filtering the warning garbage is a good idea, though.
I will do both during this weekend (going off-line until Thursday/Friday, hope this can wait).

hi Krzisztof,
thank you for the quick answer. Actually, for me it would be enough an access to the atomic midi events (and maybe to the delta times), because I have more then one, not so complex xeq sequences with one simple melody for each. if I could filter the note-on midi commands and before the next (previous) note-on I could send a note-off to it. I would only need a reversed note-on sequence and the time between each other, or even better -- the same sequenced from an xeq patch. Could it work with xeq? or is it easier to create an array for the midi-events simultaneously with the recording?

If you're recording your midi events and you want to play them back reversed afterwards, [coll] is your friend.
Simple scenario:
- store notes one by one. use [counter] for incrementing index numbers.
- when done, send [coll] 'length' message
- to play back reversed: start substracting from length and recall items by their index numbers
