Better handling for keyUps on keyboard #16

Keyboard controller plays the closest note to the active chord. This means that multiple keys map to the same not. Each of the key presses sends separate noteOn/Off midi messages. This results in a note being muted event though it is still held down. Here's an example:

Lets say that Key1 maps to A3, and Key2 maps to A3. When I press down on Key1, A3 rings out and is held, now I press Key2 and A3 rings out again. I release Key2 and A3 stops, even though I'm still holding down Key1.

We need to see if this actually feels natural, but it's something that bothered me a bit.
