Assigning a key to the midi player

[BWSounds]

Is it possible to assign a key (lets say c5) to the keyboard so when you press that key it plays the midi pattern in the midi player?

Call this in your onNote on callback (and give it the timestamp from Message.getTimestamp() for sample accurate playback).

@Christoph-Hart I keep getting this message:

@BWSounds declare the midiPlayer as this:
"Create typed MIDI.....

you'll get this reference:

const var MIDIPlayer1 = Synth.getMidiPlayer("MIDI Player1");

in the NoteOn Callback:

function onNoteOn()
{
	if(Message.getNoteNumber() == 84)
    {
        var timeStamp = Message.getTimestamp();
        MIDIPlayer1.play(timeStamp);
        Message.ignoreEvent(true);
    }
}
 

I have the

Message.ignoreEvent(true);

so that the pressed key doesn't sound as well

@ulrik Thank you! I guess I was over complicating things.
