Beginners understanding of Max for LIve
Posted: Wed Jan 20, 2021 3:47 pm
Forgive me if my question seems basic-
I've armed a midi track with a max for live instrument. It plays notes (I don't need my keyboard, its a sequencer) but, as I record it, I don't see any notes produced in the midi editor. If I route it to an audio track, that records it fine. But shouldn't any notes played by a digital instrument come through as midi notes? That's where I get confused. Do digital instruments play as either midi or audio instruments? Why can I see the midi editor and hear the instrument play but not see any notes?
Thanks for anyones help.
