Description
MidiGate is a simple switch that prevents incoming MIDI notes from passing.
Found this to be useful in some use cases where muting a MIDI track or note generating device would cause notes to drop out or infinitely sustain when turned off.
Originally made for my other device, Exclusive Toggle, where muting MIDI tracks or note generators could create unwanted behavior.
