Some distortions might qualify as two or three notes at once. In any event, I suppose it would be easiest to get the highest pitches to register and perhaps calculate the rest of the value based on intervals from the other distortion. For example, a pitch value of 3 is going to be the same note as a value of 1, skipped down an octave. And a value of 2 is going to be six half-steps (600 cents) below 1, etc. It might be productive to come up with a table for that, then find the highest note, or at least some common note in each distortion and work your way down from there. My biggest fear about the list is that I'll habitually change the To line in an important or personal message that doesn't even remotely belong in this list. -- To unsubscribe, send the word UNSUBSCRIBE in the body of a message to stella-request@xxxxxxxxxxx
