Play notes in sync with host

rootstudio

I would like to have Kontakt play itself like so:

In my GUI, I have a representation of a one-octave keyboard. I can click each key to activate it. Let's say I click the 'C' key.

When I start the host, the C should repeat in sync with the host tempo. I can probably figure out how to do subdivisions etc., but I don't know how to trigger a note using just the host clock without actually playing a note on my MIDI keyboard.

Thanks

You can do it, use the listener callback.

on init
set_listener($NI_SIGNAL_TIMER_BEAT, 2)
declare ui_switch $C
end on

on listener
if($C = 1)
play_note(60, 60, 0, $DURATION_SIXTEENTH)
end if
end on

Ooh, thanks for pointing that out. That will give me something to try out :)
