Is it possible that your WX5 is in some kind of monophonic mode? Look at the time stamps on your MIDI Monitor output:

20:34:33.*207*  From In Note On 1       F2      30
20:34:33.*208*  From In Note Off        1       E2      0
20:34:33.*534*  From In Note On 1       G2      30
20:34:33.*535*  From In Note Off        1       F2      0

Your note-offs are always just one tick after the next note-on; that is, essentially simultaneous. There's certainly no audible overlap.

Hi - I think that Chuck's Midi methods seem not to be working (except for very 
simple examples), as Chuck is dropping Midi events - I'm using the pre-compiled 
version of Chuck 1.3.0 (gidora), on a Mac Mini (2.7GHz I7), with OSX 10.7.5 
(Lion).

The only type of ON/OFF sequence in which Chuck seems not to "swallow" any 
notes is of the form Note1 ON, Note1 OFF, Note2 ON, Note2 OFF…  Instead, I'm generating 
Midi streams in which there are new note On events before the prior note goes off. They 
happen when I play legato with a Yamaha WX5 wind controller, but any Midi keyboard would 
also generate such sequences if one presses a new key before releasing another one that 
is already sounding.

I captured the following short sequence with the "MIDI Monitor" app 
(http://www.snoize.com/MIDIMonitor/). Also it sounds fine with different sound 
generators):

20:34:33.026    From In Note On 1       E2      22
20:34:33.030    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 20
20:34:33.036    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 25
20:34:33.041    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 27
20:34:33.071    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 29
20:34:33.182    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 30
20:34:33.207    From In Note On 1       F2      30
20:34:33.208    From In Note Off        1       E2      0
20:34:33.534    From In Note On 1       G2      30
20:34:33.535    From In Note Off        1       F2      0
20:34:33.664    From In Control 1       Breath Control (coarse) 32
20:34:33.845    From In Note On 1       A2      32
20:34:33.846    From In Note Off        1       G2      0

Capturing the same with Chuck only shows the 1st Note ON (and all the CCs, which are 
correct), but the rest of the Note ONs/OFFs vanish (BTW, playing very slowly makes no 
difference). To make sure it was not some bug in my code, I captured the Midi using just 
Chuck's example in miniAudicle->File->Open Example->MIDI->gomidi (the numeric 
output is converted below, just for readability):

Note On E2      22
CC      BC (msb)        20
CC      BC (msb)        25
CC      BC (msb)        27
CC      BC (msb)        29
CC      BC (msb)        30
CC      BC (msb)        32

Only by fully ending each note before playing the succeeding one, all the Note 
ONs/OFFs show up. But that's not useable...

Any help on incantations for Chuck, workarounds, or a fix would be great! 
(particularly since after learning to ChucK from Rob Poor's Oxygen8, the rest 
of my ChucK code seems to be working nicely :-)

Thanks!
Daniel
