route 2 tracks to 1 but in different chains

Post by overdru » Thu Apr 11, 2019 10:06 pm

Hi all,
I know that max for live devices can now receive audio signal from multiple tracks, and I'm looking for a device that receives the audio from two (or more) separate tracks, but keep them separate (chains?) so I can automate a kind of crossfade between the two audio signals on the receiving track. Do you think it would be possible?
thx for any tip

make a audio rack. Put this device in two chains. Route Audio to input 3 4 of this device. Crossfade with the chain selector.

Oops, it would've been too easy... I created a blank audio effect rack on "Audio track 1" in which I created 2 chains. In one chain I dropped a blank max audio effect, clicked on the edit button opening max 8, pasted your code in the max window and saved the patch in max then in live. Then I tried to route "Audio track 2" to "Audio track 1" but I can't choose input 3-4, only the destination track is available, the box below is grayed and labeled "track in". Did I miss something?
