|
NKSP. However when calculating time differences between two time |
347 |

stamps taken with <code>$NKSP_REAL_TIMER</code>, calling such a reset |

function is not required, because the underlying clock does not stop |

internal clock which is used for generating such time stamps is only |

running forward if the respective script is actually executed by the |

It is not appropriate for being used in a musical context, because |

when an offline bounce is performed for instance, the musical timing |

This may be passed to many built-in functions like <code>note_off()</code>. |

This array variable only contains IDs of notes which were launched due |
488 |
|
to MIDI note-on events. This variable does not contain IDs of child notes |
489 |
|
(i.e. notes which were launched programmatically by calling <code>play_note()</code>). |

In contrast to KSP this variable is an integer array type, whereas KSP's |
492 |
|
pendent of this built-in variable is an integer constant (scalar) called |
493 |
|
<code>$ALL_EVENTS</code>. Using the latter with NKSP will cause a |
494 |
|
parser warning, the behavior will be the same though. |
