Hanging MIDI CC device (Max For Live Midi Effect randomly stopped passing data through it)

Post by MasterZap » Fri Mar 12, 2021 11:18 am

So I've ran into a problem on my live stream last night.

You can see it at this timestamp on the stream: https://youtu.be/-svXBubqOSo?t=2785

I'm using the CC_map8 max device to control some real-world synths, and what I realized had happened, is that MIDI had stopped flowing through the CC device. (Sadly you can't see it due to the dancing baby graphic, lol, sorry) but the indicator on the right side of the device is not wiggling.

I simply delete the device and Undo to add it back again, and that fixes it. But it happened like 3 times during that stream, and always for different instances of *that* plugin.

Any ideas what could be causing this?

First thing to check is the Max window when it happens
MacBook Pro 13" Retina i7 2.8 GHz OS 10.13, L10.0.1, M4L.
MacStudio M1Max 32Go OS 12.3.1
