A simple way to rename live.numbox for Push?

Post by beebeeveevee » Tue Apr 09, 2024 8:00 pm

Hi

I'm a complete beginner to Max 4 Live and am working through a course book on composition using it.

I've made my second ever very simple device - essentially an even simpler version of Ableton's 'Chord', but on Push, the encoders are called "live.numbox" and "live.numbox[1]".

Is there a simple way to rename these?

I've tried using live.banks, but it's more complicated than I'm used to so far, and I also don't see anyway to actually rename the numboxes.

Thank. you!

You can set a long name and a short name in the Max Inspector window.
This affects how the name is shown in the device in Live, in automation, and on Push.
