Usage

There are two variations of SusNote — SusNote-U and SusNote-L.

SusNote-U (Unlatched)

The unlatched version of SusNote requires the sustain pedal to be held for the duration of the note.

  • Pitch refers to the MIDI note you want to trigger.
  • Note Velocity refers to the note velocity you want to trigger.

SusNote-L (Latched)

The latched version of SusNote does not require the sustain pedal to be held for the duration of the note. Instead, a predefined tempo and note duration can be set. Please be advised SusNote-L will not respond to sustain pedal movement after the initial activation trigger.

  • Pitch refers to the MIDI note you want to trigger.
  • Note Velocity refers to the note velocity you want to trigger.
  • Tempo and** Duration** let you set the amount of time the note will be sustained before a note off message is sent.
