working out how to extract values from API I can manipulate

[Soupsounds]

Hi - I am pretty new to Max and I am trying to work with Abelton APi - extracting info and sending values to another program via midi.

In this case I wan t to work out the length in ms of the first loop extracted from Abelton's looper.

I can work out how to use the get function to be able to see the value of the Tempo and length of the first clip.

What I cant work out is an easy way to actually take the numerical value of the tempo and length so I can manipulate them.

I have attached the basic patch I have been using.

Grateful for any ideas

Best Regards

Richard
