The MFL v1.0 way of doing this is with send/receive and a sender device.

Which seems very messy indeed … and the other way around, midichannels accepting soundinput from ableton audio or bus channels would be much appreciated as well .. (back to the old pluggo bus for now :) ) !

on a second note .. i have a simple [send] in a m4l patch on a midichannel .. if i put the [receive] in that same patch everything behaves as expected .. if i put the [receive] in a different m4l patch on a different (audio) track .. it won't receive .. is this how it's supposed to work ?

thanks !

send and receive work fine across multiple devices, just not for audio.

If you can show otherwise, please give us some steps for reproduction.

my bad, the device was deactivated, hence no receive …

You need a satellite device to intercept the MIDI for your audio device.
That's what I needed to hear. I know that WAY back when he had said it was unlikely, but I missed that particular statement.

Another one which I am very interested in which won't be in V1.0 is the ability to build a stereo-in, multiple output device (without using tricks like Send~/Receive~ and satellite devices).
