I initially thought MaxObj.message was the way, but experimentation and reading there seems to indicate that it isn’t.

Here’s the specifics (there’s far too much code to attach unfortunately).

I have a js program creating Max objects.

These are of type tmidiin and timidiout that are my own flavours of midiin and midiout.

I keep track of them in the js program and I want to send messages to their inlet 0s.

But I keep getting errors like:

patcher: doesn't understand ccmap

where my tmidiin definitely does understand that message if it receives it directly!

I’m about to send all this data to an outlet of the js box, then create three “route” boxes and connect it to all the the midiins and midiiouts – or create TWO outlets from my JS box, but only have two route boxes.

But that’s bleh. And I expect to do a lot of this.

Is there a way just to send a specific message to an inlet of a Max object – and in fact one that I have created with a JS program?

Thanks in advance!

Are there methods to send messages directly, or do I have to resort to secondary objects connected to those inlets?

Basically:

blah = this.patcher.getnamed(‘blah’);
blah.message(‘inlet’, 2, ‘int’, whatever);

something like that.

No dice. ‘in1′ works as expected with some objects and not others, but not ‘in2′. Wierd….
