Hi Tyler, Thanks for responding.
I will forward to the pd list now it's up again. The midinote option is a good idea, and I have thought about something like that for the dummy version I am making with some sound samples the performer has sent me. Problem with that though is that I want to differentiate between the same note on different strings. Good clue though.
