Yes, Pd can do it and it's a common idiom to filter out note-offs if
you're not interested in them with the [stripnote] object. A
minimal note off filter patch would look like this:

 [notein]
 | |
 [stripnote]
 | |
 [noteout]

Make that with Pd, aconnect it as you like and that's it.

Or maybe they get played, but turned off immediatly? At least that
would be the correct behaviour if you play a very short note. If you
don't want notes to turn off immediatly, then use a note off filter as
above.
