Here it is a litlle utility module that, using freq and pitch pins of MIDI to poly module, converts the frequency informationto the 5 standarized representations:

.- Hz .- Integer MIDI Note; .- MIDI Note Name .- Pitch Class .- Frequency. Fraction

Firts 3 are self evident Pitch Class is an float whose integer part is the octave and is fractional part is a number in range [.00-.11] representing the semitone

Pitch Class is an float whose integer part is the octave and is fractional part represents the semitone in 1/12 fractional units

Very clever but...

I was going to use some part of this to build a input monitoring plugin to use with eXT (it´s good to see exactly what note in what octave you´re playing when triggering chords and midi parts etc...) but I find that the module hangs after the first note played. I correctly shows the first notes name but doesn´t display the next note. Can anybody see why this is happening? I´ve tried to find this out myself but I am obviously way to much of a beginner in this stuff...

thanks

Hi Max! Welcome --- Unk, unfortunally, this doesn't work for me w/PC keyboard :/

I have the same problem as Max. It hangs after the first note, and won't respond to any more notes This is a shame cos otherwise it could be dead useful. Could it have anything to do with the version of SM this was made in?

I'll take a look. Sorry maxicon, must have missed this before.

(nice to see you back galaa 🙂)
