very noobie question

Hi there,

Just trying my first hand at this, and I'm finding something doesn't quite make sense.

I'm trying to make a small construct that will fire certain events when a certain pitch is played.

I'm having trouble with the compare/equality module ever registering the pitch of something (or mod of it) is equal to a value.

I've attached a screenshot. From this, what I think should happen is that the equals output should produce a 1 when the C key is pressed, however it always produces 0.

Help me please (sorry if I'm being a dumbass)?

Hi. The structure you posted should indeed fire a 1 when a "C" is pressed. I just checked and it works.

You're modules are polyphonic and you should be able to see the value of each voice by holding your mouse over the wire at the = output. If you can't see it, hit "ctrl-i" to turn on hints

If you don't need multiple voices, switch all the modules to mono. Then you'll just get a single "1" from the output.

Hope that helps.

 

Thanks for the help,

The wire value inspection is helping, but I'm seeing something else funny now. Have a look at the image. It seems I can't get get a pure 0 from the mod output, even if I try and absolute the value.

How can I round down / up to get an integer value from this almost 0 value? I can't find anything that jumps out at me to do this.

Cheers,

C

 

"Watching the wires" can cause you to miss a lot of important information.

Use the eventwatcher to debug event problems.

BTW, your structure looks fine, it should output a "1" when a C is pressed.

As for the second picture, what's your notepitch value???
Are you sure it's a C? I can't understand how you could possibly be getting a result like that w/o a fractional value coming from the note pitch, or unless (and this is possible but unlikely) the "Value" setting on your constant of "12" is different from the "name" property. Check the properties on that constant.

I have found the issue.

See, I'm trying to expand an existing ens. Event Loops was on. turn that off, and everything seems dandy.

Will see if it all works now.
