is it possible ?
I can't find a way to do this, only the song position, nothing about clip.
any idea?

thanks a lot

Olivier

Don't think so

Thanks gaspav

It's funny that everyone keeps asking the same thing. You can get loop_start and loop_end. If you use that along with the metro objects synced to master tempo you can get a lot of the info you need. I am going to put an example patch on my site, once i try it and see that it actually works... You basically create another metro that starts on is_clip_triggered 1. This metro will go from loop_start to loop_end.

thanks for the tip Michael
It sounds promising

Heres a quick test. Timing is still not great though. Monitors clip 0 in track 0. Would this be better using a sample rate signal ramp instead?

hmmm ... I was thinking of grabbing the tempo like you did, but also starting a metro that syncs on is_clip_triggered 1. I am going to have to play around with it. I like your patch though. I will look through it and think about it. That's the good and bad of MAX; There are so many ways to do things.

How about using current_song_time?

Store the time when clip is triggered.
Compare stored time with current_song_time to get time from start point.

Reset on loop_jump.

Is that a good way to go?

Something like this maybe?

Hit the button in the device if it isnt working.
If its a looped clip start must be at beginning of loop.
If not start must be a 1 1 1

I really don't know what I'm doing so sorry if it crashes horribly.
