Hi Nic, is there a way I can convert a polyphonic midi stream into mono. I.E. filtering out everything but the highest note pressed. This isn't as easy as it may seem, for example, with a trill, the previous notes received need to be remembered, even though they are turned off in the output stream. The trill will always play the highest note followed by the next highest when the top one is released.
The main reason for wanting to do this is because bass pedals are usually monophonic, with a little sustain (like on the old Hammonds) So when whipping from one note to another if you catch the odd note in between it doesn't create a terrible beating drone. Instead you get a sort of slur which sounds quite effective. Using something like SampleTank to provide bass is great except it doesn't provide a mono filter.
