How do I get a Max for Live effect to output midi so that it can be selected from another tracks Midi From dropdown box? I've tried midiout and plugmidiout.

This is not going to make it into version 1.

What you can do for now is make a MIDI device and send things to it using a send receive object pair.

we cant actually use send/recieve to send to another max device, like in pluggo plugsend~, or is it possible to do this with MFL?

Yes you can. Use the prefix "---" to keep the send limited to your plugin.

Whoah! I have never heard of "---" as a prefix to do that. It's not in the send nor receive reference nor in the remote messaging tutorial. Any further info on that?

Do you mean [---s foo] and [---r foo] or [s ---foo] and [r ---foo]?

[s ---foo] and [r ---foo]

In a device instance, the --- will become a unique number. So that the send/receive only works within that device. I'm not sure about documentation on this very specific use, but its the same as using [r #0foo] which is documented.
