Process/generate MIDI before NCB, custom tabs

Is it possible to process/generate incoming MIDI notes before the NCB, but still in the same script? I need each generated note to trigger the NCB independently. For example, say I have a unison button that takes an incoming midi note, ignores it, and generates two new notes with calls to play_note(). This won't work for me because my NCB is structured as follows:

Code:

on note
    ignore_event($EVENT_ID)
    while ($looping)
        { huge amount of code }
    end while
end on

The two unison notes need to each have their own while loop running at the same time (i.e., two independent NCB calls). Or say I have a MIDI sequencer that plays notes with play_note() -- play_note() doesn't trigger the NCB if it's called in the same script. The only way I can think to deal with this is to do my MIDI stuff in a separate script placed before my main script. This also won't work for me because I want custom tabs like so:



When you have multiple scripts made visible with "make perfview", they show up as separate tabs at the bottom, which I don't want. Is there any trick to hide the tabs at the bottom, and show the first MIDI script when I click on my custom MIDI tab, which was created in the main script? Thanks.

 

If you don't want the script tabs to show up, you just don't use make_perfview in that script slot. You can definitely do what you want like that.

 

Yeah but I actually do want to view that MIDI script in the performance view when I click on my custom MIDI tab. But the custom tabs have to be made all in one script.

 

Sure. So then you use PGS to communicate between script slots.

 

Ohh okay, that makes sense. Thanks a bunch.
