Re: Parameters mapped to a MapButton won't be saved correctly
Yes, but live.object may be less suited for higher control rates.

Yes, with the (positive) side effect that it doesn't write to the undo history.chapelier fou wrote:Is it because the remote~ object removes the parameter from live's savable parameters ??

Re: How to convert a MTC number to a song postion pointer
I would convert the mtc number to milliseconds and then use the Max object [translate ms bbu].
'bbu' means 'bars beats units' where units is given in ticks (1 beat = 480 ticks).

Re: Live's master "stop button" causing weird bug in my device
I've found that Live at stop sends an All-Notes-Off message (CC123).

Try 'Gate' mode of the Velocity device.

Re: MIDI I/O routing is confusing me.
The reason is that the VST standard has only 2 types of plugins, instrument (midi>audio) and audio effect (audio>audio), but no midi effect (midi>midi). Instead a midi effect is implemented as *instrument* with additional midi output (even if it doesn't produce audio), and thus on Live tracks such p...

Re: Alchemy now part of Logic Pro X
I get about 13ms of latency on the External Instrument device, running a session at 44,1Khz and 256 samples buffer settings using an RME Babyface as output. Interesting. I've tested again with 256 samples buffer and still get latency on the external instrument much higher than 13ms. And finally I e...

Re: Alchemy now part of Logic Pro X
I'm using it on 10.10.5 and it works fine. Cool. Just tried it with success but I'm not sure about the latency. What is your audio buffer in Live and the latency setting of external instrument? PS With a phase test I got instrument latency about 80ms (@512 samples audio buffer). So Soundflower itse...

Re: Alchemy now part of Logic Pro X
For guys on a Mac and wanting to use Logic as a slave to Ableton. Just use Soundflower (free) to get the audio into Ableton and use the IAC Driver (already native to Mac) to route the midi from Ableton to Logic. That way you can use an External Instrument device (from Ableton) to get your Logic ins...

Re: OSC ... how to implement a simple solution?
For handling OSC in Max (and M4L) you can use [udpsend/udpreceive]. Quite simple and no Java involved.
But there is a general limitation of UDP/OSC that different applications cannot receive on the same port.

Re: Audio to MIDI Clock conversion...
It's not possible to send system real-time messages like MIDI clock through Live's track output.
As workaround you could send UDP/OSC messages to a standalone Max patch and convert there into MIDI clock.
Btw, Live's EXT mode is for clock input, not output.

Re: M4l session performance buffer
Capturing midi notes in the background can be done with the [detonate] object as buffer. For recalling the buffer you'd need to create a midi clip and copy the data from detonate into the clip. All these steps can be automated with M4L - but only in session view. M4L cannot create or paste a midi cl...

Re: Live MTC send via MIDI for VCA automation?
Since Live does only receive MTC you could use a MTC generator tool as master clock for synchronization.
For example this.

Re: Mac OS X: aggregating (merging) MIDI devices
The small free app 'MidiPipe' can easily merge multiple input devices/ports into one.
