MPE not working MaxForLive

Post by gross9978 » Sat Jun 22, 2024 9:11 pm

Has anyone noticed an issue with MPE not working in a specific situation- if I open Live and work on a maxforlive device, specifically a midi tool, and then go to play the Push3 no MPE information is sent to Live, restarting Live does nothing but restarting Push fixes the problem. If I open Live and just start playing, everything works as expected. I talked to support and I’m in the process of making a video/status report for them but was curious if anyone else experienced anything similar to this?

Which MIDI device are you using when you encounter this issue?
Which version of Live do you use? And on what operating system and version?

I’m on Mac OS Sonoma and live 12.0.5
It’s not happening when using a device, only if I’ve had the editor open building a device, I’ve built a few midi tools and noticed the issue while building them.

If you create or work with M4L devices, make sure those devices have the “MPE Enabled” checkbox enabled. To do that edit the M4L device and go to the inspector, click on the patch button in the top tab and scroll down until you see that checkbox. I don’t know if this is your problem, but in my case sometimes my patches didn’t work because of that.

I don’t think that’s the case with the midi tools devices but I’ll check, that’s definitely the case with the standard midi devices. Thanks for the suggestion:)
