Hi Ryan,

Really, at this point, the only question I have is "what's the best PD item to use to create a dynamically-resizable array? Maybe the answer is to increase the buffer size in one-second increments, then trim after recording is done.

Changing of size of an array leads to a problem if the new size is not available in one block in the memory. In this case, a new memory block must be allocated and old data copied to the new one. This happens if you have strong fragmented memory usage in your OS - what is hard to control because it depends on the rest of applications you run on your machine (and the OS you use, of course). Allocating a big memory piece before processing is always a good idea.

But, this doesn't answer you question, sorry :-(

Yes, I've since found out that 31.5K baud is the control rate -- and that I would need six tabwrites in parallel to get everything I'm after -- three for notes, three for CCs. (Not worried about pitchbend and program-change)

Do you use _one_ MIDI out cable? How can you get more than 31250baud, then? (see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Midi, sections "The MIDI specifications" and "low bandwidth"). Or is it a kind of virtual MIDI with higher bandwidth?
