Receive CC from MIDI input?

Post by patrickstinson » Wed Jul 02, 2014 11:02 pm

I have a Max MIDI Effect and am seeing Note On / Note Off messages but not CC messages come in through the [midiin] device from the Live Track. I don't see any activity in the track's midi monitor for CC's but do see activity when I send note on/off. So how can I receive CC messages from a midi input device in M4L?

Thanks!

or use a "ctrlin" object which sees only controller messages

Ah yes, those both work but I figured out the problem. Live doesn't send a CC messages to tracks when that CC is mapped to a parameter in Live.
Damn!

I worked around this by creating a [live.dial], also mapping it to the CC, and then listening to the changes there.

Yes but you can try to send it on another channel, this might be work.
