Week 3 Polyphony and Instancing


Poly~ is a great object, this is defiantly something I'm going to use extensively in my final project. I'm still unsure how the thispoly~ object operates, but I'm sure we'll go through some of its uses in class. Instead of using a thispoly~ object to turn the voices off, i created my own way using select and sends. It doesn't work perfectly, when playing chords it sometimes doesn't turn notes off, but with a lot of fiddling and playing with delays i could probably get this working. But with the thispoly~ object its not necessary.

Check it out in the MyBox wideget at the top.
