Getting Plugin~ Data on a Different Track

Hi.
I am wondering if someone knows a way to get the Plugin~/Plugout~ data from one track into a M4L device on another track.

this is not possible.

it is a crippling made by ableton and threading issues.

it is still crippled in Live9 and it is infuriating.

global send~ / receive~ do not work. workaround is to use a buffered global namespace buffer~ setup, but it is dangerous and does not really do what we want.

Sure this is a waste... Can't you use the routing capabilities of Live ofr that ? Say you want the data fro mtrack 1 in track 2, select 'track 1' as audio source for track 2 and set monitoring on ?

The only problem with your solution Stephane is, if you did that, track 2 would not be able to have its own audio.
Thank you for your help.

I know. That was an hypothesis.
