I need to make some tests so I understand how to deal with encoders and Arduino better. Cried for help a bit too soon, sorry.

Yep, but for the sake of easiness I’d love to use the Arduino device from the connection kit.
But I guess it’s not possible. Time to get back into it...

Anyone ?

Replace "regular" Max objects by their live equivalent, like [live.numbox] instead of [number].
They can be (and are by default) "parameter enabled" meaning you can save and automate them.
Alternatively, check out [pattr] and [pattrstorage] and their M4L tab in the help files.

If the instruments use physical modeling, it’s absolutely common that they get out of tune, especially in the higher range.

Simple question, is it possible to map an encoder to a Live parameter via the "Arduino" device from the connection kit ?

Send me a pm and I’ll send you a device.

Yes. It’s been added to L11’s Expression Control.
Doable in L10 and M4L, though, I did make a device for this purpose somewhere. I bet there are free devices available on maxforlive.com that do just this.

Are you on Live 11 ?

Maxforlive midi effects/expression control
“Random” parameter

It’s because you’re already saving into a project. Save anywhere else and it will create a new project.

Never knew it would behave like this. Interesting...

I agree, clicking shouldn’t be necessary.

Your conclusions are correct.
Check this Cycling article, and its 2nd part.

I've read this already. Great article, but very poor concerning MPE.

I've got plenty of ideas, but I'd need some guidance. Is there any place to learn good habits when making MPE enabled devices ? I've got many questions, like - On a MPE enabled instrument, like Wavetable, is it possible to play more than one of the same note simultaneously ? My tests seem to show th...
