in thread utf8 hash keys revisited: How can i use musical symbols as hash keys?

Update/clarification: Since MIDI notation does not directly support enharmonics, one way this can be emulated is via after touch. Even if the MIDI is not sent to a synth (hardware or software), the nuance can still be represented (even if imperfectly).

To add subtlety the notes, After touch can be used on some synths. (Pitch Bend applies to all notes on a channel while After Touch applies to a specific note.)

    Sure, may be. But IMHO nobody mentioned synths, Aftertouch or Pitchbend in this thread. So what?

        Hi RonW,

        thank you very much for clarifying this.

        I didn't do any MIDI stuff yet, so i wasn't aware of this. But your hint will be mentioned in dispatches ;-)

        If you are interested why i do this:

        Best regards, Karl

        Update: ...and i'll fix the wrong octave in my OP ASAP ;-)
