Title: Delaying Noteoff
Post by JohnClosely on May 12^th, 2004, 2:33am

I can create a translation map that delays any message by 1000 ms. I would like to only delay the noteoff message. The intent is to make every note stick a little while.

Setting the input event type to noteoff doesn't work.

How can you delay noteoff?

Hi,

I've just tried what you are attempting to do and it worked fine for me !

Check:-
1) in your input monitor window that Midi-Ox is actually receiving a note on and note off event.

2)in your output monitor window that these events are being sent to the output.

3)that your translation map is active (check 'Turn Map on (after OK)' is ticked in the translation map editor).

4)that you are transmitting on the same channel that the sound module is set to receive on.

Cheers,

Kev.

Many MIDI controllers send a Note On with 0 velocity instead of a real Note Off. All MIDI receivers should be able to deal with either type of Note Off.

You should set up a delay mapping to deal with both possiblities for a complete solution. Example:

-------------------snip---------------
MOXMAP Version 5

[Map]
*,NoteOff,*,*,*,*,N,1000,*,*,*,*,*,*
*,NoteOn,*,*,0,0,N,1000,*,*,*,*,*,*
-------------------snip---------------

Hint: To use this verbatim, copy the text between the lines to a text file and name it DelayedNoteOff.txm. Then import it into the Mapping dialog.

is there a way to apply this map to only one port?

Yes. Save the map as an .OXM file, and then specify that map in a Port routing in the Routing View.

Anyone doing this might also need to set their Map folder (Options | Folders...), so that the saved map is visible.
