[PD] seq (cyclone) object help patch not working - for midi file playback

[Rua Haszard Morris]

I didn't get any responses to my previous message - was it filtered away due to links in my sig? Anyway, reposting with a bit more info. This all relates to pd-extended 0.40.3 on various platforms

I am unable to get the seq help patch to work correctly for playback on linux. I am running 64studio, a variant of debian. The "test audio and midi" patch produces midi notes so I know that midi is working. Note that test audio and midi uses noteout, whereas seq test uses midiout.

I have succesfully had the seq help patch playback notes on OS X. I tried on windows and was unable to get seq help to produce notes when playing back the test midi file; again, test audio and midi was successful.

Any ideas? do i have a problem with the midiout object? The editor with seq shows some note data has been successfully read. Can someone give me some tips on how to work through this problem?

thanks
Rua HM.

Subject: [PD] [seq] object from cyclone - can't get it working on linux

I'm having trouble getting seq to work - I'm using pd-extended 0.40.3 running on linux/debian/64studio. 

I have the midi outs of PD connected to amSynth via ALSA midi in JACK (QJackCtl).

noteout in "test audio and midi" works ok, and plays notes on amSynth, but the seq test patch, routed to midiout, doesn't seem to produce any notes.

It is producing something, as I connected things randomly up to a noteout and was able to make some noises..

Can someone give me some pointers on why midiout (or seq?) might be misbehaving? Can someone else running 0.40.3 on linux check that the seq-help patch is working for them?

Thanks
Rua HM
