dire importance.
thanks for the help!

in Pd and seeing how far you get.. "notein" or "ctlin" objects (depending on
which types of MIDI messages you want to look at) to turn the MIDI data into
numbers Pd can manipulate; "sel" objects to turn specific note numbers,
velocities, cc's, etc. into bangs; message boxes to turn the bangs into
specific letters, numbers, etc.; and a "textfile" object to record your
"keystrokes" for use outside of Pd.
