[PD] Input Controllers for Pd with finer grain than MIDI

[David McCallum]

         I've been tinkering around with this. Do you have it in patch form?

         Your else if statement doesn't take into account values between 
last-output and last-output+jitter. Which isn't exactly everything else. Is 
this intentional?

         If it's supposed to be like that, should I be using two moses 
(mosees?) to split that? At the moment I've been assuming that "else" 
really is everything not included in the if statement and using one moses.

         Also, do you have any tips for tuning the filter? I've tried to 
get it pretty close but it still jitters. I imagine it's not perfect, though.
