midi all notes off

Is there an easy way to send an all notes off midi command to a synthesizer?
Sometimes notes can "hang" when a note off is missed (for whatever reason) and I cannot find a way to solve this.

in your daw you should find the key command that sends an "all notes off" message and use it. inside scope i am not sure if there is something similar, you can make one with the sdk but it is not worth it because it is a standard command in the daws. in your daw most probably there should be a way to configure an all notes off message on transport stop also.

Thank you.
I am not really using a daw, I am using VCV rack to control the synths. And VCV doesn't have an all notes off command, yet.
So I was hoping I could fix this inside Scope.

Sounds like a feature for the midi modules in VCV. Some midi interfaces have a button for this, ad an active sensing device can be unplugged/replugged to achieve this.

i don't remember for scope. if your sequencer in vcv rack has a reset pin perhaps it sends note offs. another way is programatically. make a small app that uses one scope midi source. send there your all notes off messages and merge it with your other scope midi source that comes from vcv rack. An arduino would be very helpful if you like to add a physical button or something like that.

I just found out the midi module in VCV has a right click "panic" option. So that will probably do the trick.

yes this should work.

You can also find midi panic button here.
simply integrate at the end of the signal chain!

for a single device, just change the midi channel, and change back to the orginal value. it cuts hung notes on that device. It's fast to do when the device has a click n drag midi channel selector, because it's just a "click-n-drag up and down" movement.

Could be an idea for a 16 channel midi device patch bay with a increase/decrease button linked to all channels (1 button to rule them all, lol), that will result in a all-notes-off, just like a panic button, but in fact it's just midi-channel increase+decrease macro.
