Ok,
this is the reason I was making the note to midi object. The accompanying patch runs a small sequencer from a file (ppgseq.txt) - it uses a vst object but could easily be converted to a noteout. The idea is that you have a simple sequence in the text file and each step is output via a bang - I am using a simple metro object here but a more complex timing sequence could be used.
The issue I have with textfile (used in the squenz object) is that there appears to be a pause during the rewind - is there any way around this or a similar object that doesn't have the same problem?
cheers

Hi Mark,
you could do a mapping with the maphash object, store the mappings in a textfile read at the beginning of a session. That way, any symbol name could be mapped to any float or a list of floats (that would solve the midi to note problem easily and would enable loading of different naming conventions, checking the mapping in a simple textfile). You could also store sequences in it quite easily and wouldn't have the delay problem (hash tables, if big enough, are very efficient).
Yours, Orm

Hi,
already built the conversion object (only took 1/2 an hour). However its a good idea for the sequencer - gives me a lot more power too! I'll check it out later.
I'm a great fan of hashmaps/tables - I've been programming mainly in Java for the lsat few years - you can't write java without them.
cheers
