I've been working on a track for a few weeks now, and all of a sudden when I open it up today (to master it) a bunch of M4L devices have lost the values & parameters they should have.
Namely:
4Play (Tricky Traps) sequencer has incorrect note values
Instant Haus is sending the wrong midi notes
AMBM synth (Tricky Traps) is making the wrong sounds
I tried restoring old versions of the project file, and the same issue is there, so I guess it's something wrong with max/the devices, not the project file. Also tried rebooting, etc.
I've installed a couple of packs & plugins since the project was last opened. Could that be an issue? Anyone else every experienced this?
At a bit of a loss as to what to do, other than rebuilding it.

M4L devices lose their values on opening project
Re: M4L devices lose their values on opening project
I only started using M4L a couple of days ago and I'm finding that a large number of the devices (mostly ones downloaded from Maxforlive.com) do not remember their saved settings when re-opening the track at a later stage.
I am also finding many devices do not remember their settings when they have been saved as presets, so if I save my tinkering on a device as a user preset then remove the device and then re-open the preset the settings have not been stored.

This is down to the developers, you've listed two generative sequencers however who's very nature is to create new sequences each time....
If you want to recall previously made patterns then you should record them to another MIDI track and save them as clips...
