All the LEDs are built in now, and I did some good testing. Your Max-application works really well! The response of the LEDs is immediate to the MIDI; only flashing 63 channels at once gives some problems, but that may well be in the Orgautomatech64. Well, anyway, that's not too important. Important ...

This might give some idea. There are going to be 7 rows like this. The scratches are on the foil that is protecting the semi-transparent perspex. And on the picture the light colours wash out a bit due to overexposure in the camera.

Pretty minor change to make - think it is okay now...

Had a quick look. Perfect, just perfect!! This is soo great! And so much better than I was initially hoping for.

I'm getting to the stage in my project where I build the LED strips ...

Ugh, just realised something - they are the wrong notes. I thought it was from C's ascending, but you skipped out D# and G...
o darn.. ;)
Yep, they are grouped by 3
LED 1: C, C#, D
D#=empty
LED 2: E, F, F#
G=empty
LED 3: G#, A, A#
B=empty

This way, I can transpose MIDI-tracks in steps of +1/-1 to ...

You're the coolest dude of the interwebs!
And thanks again!

The value are not coming from the toggles at all. The text you see is just text - each of those object are identical apart from the names and send out a value of either 0 or 1 which is stored in the coll object. The values are "hard coded" if you like and cannot change - I thought that is what you ...

I can't figure out where those values are coming from:

hmm...

I get what you are looking to do a lot better now after looking at that and toggles make a lot of sense! A little paste and replace and toggles are added. Had to add messages fixing the notes, but it is essentially the same patch. Reckon it should be pretty close to what you were looking for. If ...

ok, I had a little look under the hood, and I turned your file into this:

It's getting very close to where I want it to be... and I could never have done this without your help.

Even better would be toggle on/off buttons for each channel.. well, that's ...

just had a good look at it, and it seems to work perfectly! Your little tutorial is very clear.
This is what it was looking for!! Thank you sooo much!

One of these months I'll find the time to get the hang of Max, and I can make some improvements.
It occurred to me that all 63 notes are fixed for ...

Wow!! You're the man!! This looks simply perfect! Many many thanks!
I downloaded the file, and I'll try it tomorrow (unfortunately no time to do it straightaway)!
I'll let you know if I can get it to work!
And thanks again!!!!

..Do you really need more than say 16 per note?
ps - I have the guts working just fine, as in one key can play 14 notes of your choosing from lists. The number of notes per key and storage are the only issues...

Well, eventually it would be nice if there is no limit in the amount of notes ...

...or just draw the chords into midi clips and midimap the notes you want to each clip.

That might actually work as well.. I have to see if I can find a way to keep those abundance of clips organized in some manner..

Would it help to put multiple Chord and/or Scale plugins in a MIDI effect rack ...

Do you want to lights to toggle on when the note is on and off when note is released or just trigger as a kind of one shot?

I want the lights to go on with Note On, and off with Note Off. So, with the key pressed, ALL the lights connected to that key go on. When I release that key, ALL lights go ...

Thank you all for your input! Greatly appreciated!.
Maybe chaining Chord and Scale effects is an option, but thing is: I want to make the programming of the lights easier, not more complicated. It seems that this way it is going to cost me more time than it'll save me.

..though I can think of a ...
