i'm new to m4l and i have a problem which i'd actually imagine simple so solve:

 (note-values) of a currently playing clip

my first problem is: how do i tell m4l to only  read the clip that is playing?

currently, any clip that is selected is affected / read out.

i'd be very gracious for any help / corrections.

hei dear folks,
i'm new to m4l and i have a problem which i'd actually imagine simple so solve:
i'm trying to build a device that reads out all notes (note-values) of a currently playing clip
(from the track it is placed on).
my first problem is: how do i tell m4l to only  read the clip that is playing?
currently, any clip that is selected is affected / read out.

i'd be very gracious for any help / corrections.

thanks so much! unfortunately i cant open the patch..

could you post it in a different format somehow?

(the forum added this to the end of your post ->)

This post seems to contain a broken pasted patch. This can happen if you don’t copy the entire “———-begin_max5_patcher———-” or “———–end_max5_patcher———–” for each and every patch you paste; perhaps you missed a preceding or trailing “-” when you copied the patch? Please notify the Cycling 74 web team if you think it is a bug.

i know this is a little off topic — but how do i get max to output the current track (or simply bang, as a matter of case) as soon as the song / transport is started?

oh, there :) thank you very much!

I don't know much about working in arrangement view, but these may be helpful. One of them has the transport bar values, one tells you when a clip has started or stopped, another tells you what track the device is on, the last one tells you what clip is currently playing on a track.

oops, Current Selections tells you what scene, track, and clip are selected. This is the transport thingie:
