Change output_routing_channel

Post by AllyssDeViante » Tue Jan 02, 2018 10:43 pm

Hi everyone!

This is actually not a M4L Question, but I think it might still fit here best.
What I'm trying to do is to change the output channel of a track with a Midi Remote Script called "ClyphX". I'm writing a custom User Action with Python.
So why in the Max for Live Forum? Because all the documentation I needed so far to write this stuff was under the label "Max For Live". So I guess if someone answers here, poeple with similar questions will find it here.

Anyways. So I can access the output_routing_channel of the track I want to change the output of. I tried to set this to the name and to the number of the track but it didn't work. Then I found that it needs to be an entry of the dictionary "available_output_routing_channels".
Apparently this consists of a display_name [symbol] and an identifier [symbol] of the tracks in that list.
But that's how far the documentation goes - nothing about what they might look like or how I can access them.

Anyone here who has experience with that?

Best,
Max

EDIT: I would like to select the output channel by name, not by number
