Re: Ultrabeat question...
Thank you so much, Rounik!
Of course, I unpacked your macros and saw immediately that your system is WAY more complicated than the one I tried to build around this issue. I'm going to spend a few hours dissecting what your have done (which, by the way does exactly what I am trying to achieve) and then apply your logic to mine.
I think the "glitch" you mention is the issue standing in my way. At first, I thought it was strange that my monitor was showing SOMETHING flowing, and that the fact that each mute button had a different channel (2-9) in the monitor itself aligned with parameter "9" and velocity "1," yet the channels in the button inspector displayed "1" for the input and output of each button itself. So I naturally tried to manually align the channels, to no avail.
The "note-off" event seems to make no change in the MIDI flow as yet, but I'll cross that bridge then if it ever presents a problem.
Thank you so much for taking the time to show me your interpretation! I have only had the program for about a month and a half with no previous experience with any DAW, so I think I'm doing fine. I realize, however, that the environment is the area that presents the steepest learning curve for me, which also happens to be where the most interesting manipulation of music takes place! (Figures, doesn't it?)
I'll work for a few hours on this and get back to you!
