Hi,

this is want I want to do:

a MIDI note should extract 3 integers from a text file, the note selects the line of the text, (see pics and file below)

of course my parser doesn't work,

what am I doing wrong?

thanks

The text:

AA 123, BA 456, FB 862,

is your input to the custom parser and that should be what you're trying to parse with the syntax specified by the schematic. Your schematic implements a dynamic syntax that would never match the string you're trying to parse. To match that string you'd need to match all the 3 lines while your schematic can only match one.

thanks jorge, I see my schematic matches only one line of the text,

how can I extend the parser to match N lines?

N not known

I try to explain better,

I have this text as example:

AA 123, BA 456, FB 862,

and I'd like to output 123 if my input is AA output 456 if my input is BA output 862 if my input is FB

I could easily do a parser in C for that, like: "if the input string match one substring of the text then the output is the substring from that line made of the last 3 chars before the comma"

is it possible to do the same in SM?

thanks

solved this way,

it was tricky for I didn't know that those S components could read all text and not just the first line! anyway the parser??

    It goes on the track you’re editing there, in place of that track’s sound, and into My sounds. Your other tracks stay as they are.

    Want to keep that track’s sound? Start a new song in SynthMaker first (Song › New song), then open this.
