Display current clip number playing in automation lane?

Post by SWIFT976 » Mon Aug 06, 2012 4:56 pm

Hi,

I'm curious to know it is possible for M4L to show the clip numbers of a track as they play in arrangement view (after recording clip automation)? The reason I'm asking is because I'd like to send that information out of M4L as a program change for controlling scenes in Maschine.

Thanks

Gotcha... I'll seek a different solution then.

Thanks for the response, Peter. :)

You can use [pgmout] for program changes, and standard cc combinations for bank changes.
There is no limitation of M4L midi output messages, except for the channels.

You could also use a midi monitor to see what bank messages are sent from a clip.
