MIDI CC control value range scaling?

Post by adhmzaiusz » Mon Jan 22, 2024 6:46 pm

Hi, I was wondering if there's a way to take drawn midi CC automation in a clip and scale it? Sort of like how you send a control signal on a modular to a destination that has an amount knob/slider to adjust how much of that control signal is attenuated by. Is there a max device somewhere that lets you do this?

Clip automation isn't visible to MaxforLive, pretty much ends the search on that one...

Chapelieur, please correct me if I'm wrong..

Cheers

I am gonna assume I'm Monsieur Chapelier and answer the question :D

I need to try it, but I don't see any reason why you couldn't scale the CC with a max MIDI FX placed anywhere in the chain.
You mean like a VCA + Offset combo in the analog world ? That would be a really useful device !

Doing this tomorrow.

EDIT : tried. It works.
