I would like to have a sound that monitors a player and triggers some bit of programming whenever the player sustains *any* single note for a specified length of time ... something like 2 seconds, perhaps. (I've done things like this using a volume threshold or when a *specific* pitch is played or held for a certain duration. But not something that's this "open.")

You could experiment with sameForLast: or hasChangedInLast:. If you open the Capytalk reference (ctrl+shift=H) you'll find some examples.

Let us know if one of these looks promising.

OMG... I actually figured out the solution on the basis of this little clue. Every once in awhile I think I just might actually be getting the hang of Capytalk and patching signal flow.

I knew about "hasChanged..." but had no clue about how to work it into this patch. But I was able get "sameForLast" to work once I got the jittery frequency tracking under control. Now I just need to figure out how to delay it shutting down too quickly ... or keep it from continuing forever ... once the player stops.
