Hello!
This patch is for working with a control surface and moving the red box around in session view.
The patch allows you to store 8 preset locations within your set (saved with session file).
You can jump to these with a single click or button (using midi-map).
Enjoy!

Hi There - a bit random, but I think you may have the knowledge to help me. I am wondering if you might be able to tell me how to go about detecting the track numbers of the tracks that the PUSH red grid is selecting is on?
I have PUSH and a custom midi controller and I want to make it so my midi controller's mapping corresponds to the PUSH grid too. So as opposed to having to map my MIDI controller fixed to Track 1 via the Ableton MIDI mapping tool, I can have a M4L patch that maps MIDI contoller fader 1, to the fader of the PUSH GRID track 1 - make sense?
I have the Push Development kit but I am still learning Max and not quite sure how I go about doing this to detect the tracks the PUSH grid is selecting?
Any help hugely appreciated.

Hi there, it's not something that can observed as a property but it can be called to find the grid reference of the top left of the red box, it's one of the functions of the session control component...
I usually observe pushes of any bank buttons and then update the value after they've been released...

Excellent that should be a start - I am new to this so kind of out of my depth - I dont suppose you could advise how I would call that and print the resultant Track Id? I guess it never hurt to ask....
Basically if I can fire out the simple number for the top left track I reckon I have a start
(PS I am reading but I swear the documentation on this is not easy to get into too.)
thanks

Sorry one more thing - I am using the LOM.Navigator to try and track down this puppy but I cannot seem to find the relevant component?
LOM root device: control_surfaces?
choosing Push from the right drop down - but then with all variants I try I cannot seem to find a relevant Property that relates to the grid position?

Thank you very much. I will take a look.
Am I missing something though, is this level of detail actually documented anywhere? I have read abiut the LOM and searched all of that but nothing seems to go very deep.

No, no documentation on Control_surfaces exists officially... Have a look at synthfan.info (from memory) which details hacking the APC40...
