I'm thinking of getting involved with M4L to make a chord effect, but need to know if it is possible to create an object that mimics the interface of a Live drum rack, but with multiple midi notes out instead of an audio hit (so the M4L device would function as an instrument midi effect, not as an audio effect like the drum rack)

(A test object would be a working graphic)

Has anyone created anything like this so that I could modify it?

You can just use normal midi effect racks for this. It won't *look* like a drum rack, but it'll do exactly what you want, if I'm not mistaken?

I looked at the matrix object, but couldn't see how to embed controls into it (and use my own graphics). (As in using a triangle to key it and replacing the m/solo buttons with + and - to increment pitch by step).

I may have to abandon the idea of a rack altogether.

Check out the Video Rack device that sort of recreates the drum rack look. You might be able to modify it to your needs.
