I never understood why there is a distinction at all. Literally all my audio effects have some sort of Midi control, most of them require note input. For example, I'd always connect the frequency of a resonator to a pitch control, which intuitively would be a keyboard. Any device could have Midi in ...

My suggestion would be, that the first time you set an object into the presentation view, either the patcher will automatically switch to "open in presentation" or a dialog would ask if you want to. That dialog should be optional (check box "don't ask me again"). That way any beg...

float should be as precise as possible (the number of pixels should be the resolution...) The Max slider also has an inspector problem. If I check the float box and then set the range to 1., and close the inspector, the range jumps to 2. After setting it to 1. again it stays... <pre><code> ---------...

Nice Shuffler, now it just needs the number boxes replaced by live.numboxes... <pre><code> ----------begin_max5_patcher---------- 4021.3oc6c0rjipaEdcOOET9tKoucgjPBHYURtaxlrMKlZponswtICF7En6d lbq67lkJOR4UHR5.1fMRnFaTi6omEdbiLvQe5ny4nui9429vMKtO+qwkKb9S Nez4la9sObyMxKItvM0+8MK1F80koQkxe1hr3myu+es3Vnnp...

If I make a live.slider very long, I still get a pretty unusable resolution of output values. It seems quantized to the Midi resolution of 127 steps. Even Midi can do better (ever heard about 14-bit Midi?) I tried the step attribute, but that didn't help. The question remains: How to set a live.slid...

If you check "open in presentation" in the patcher inspector (shift-cmd-i) the line will move to presentation mode... Does make a lot of sense, as this needs to be checked or the line applies to patching mode as the patch will also open in patching mode inside Live...

Just a lame question, but doesn't [route #1 #2] work?
It should create all the outlets you need to connect...

Beware if Live crashes and you patch on in Max: I am porting a filter pluggo I made long ago to M4L. First I had crashes while trying to interpolate a pattrstorage set in a roughly ported version. I still had some pp in etc... But now I got a different crash: I renamed a live.slider in Max and saved...

Just for fun, put this in a text file called: My-keycommands.txt max definecommand l patcher insertobj inlet; max definecommand o patcher insertobj outlet; max definecommand z patcher inserttextobj "zl "; max definecommand _ patcher inserttextobj "prepend set"; max definecommand ...

I have a Live.Slider which suddenly has diagonal stripes as soon I touch it. When saving the patch they go away. It seems related to attributes I change with a message, but I want to get rid of it, its ugly. If I change attributes programmatically there is no need to have the patch/object visually d...

there's no real means to differentiate between objects and abstractions, they work the same way from the user/patching point of vue. I never missed a distinction in more than 15 years of patching. If I come across an unknown object, I read the help file. If it doesn't have one, I double click to se...

It seems the Object Help Launcher doesn't find the live.x help files. The alt-click does find them though... If we are at it, it would be very nice, if the Launcher would have the same auto completion as when typing into an object box. I don't know if there is a js access to the database for this ki...
