A device to play Clips using modulators in Live (a failed attempt using Ai help)

Hi,

I want to create a MFL device that can play Clips in the Track it is sitting in.

I imagined this to consist essentially of a series of ON/OFF buttons that I can map to macros in Live, then save each one in its ON state as a series of scenes which I can play using a Markov chain device I have.

This sounds convoluted but for now, if I can get this working, I'd be satisfied with the result until I'm skilled enough to develop something more nuanced.

It seemed simple enough to try to build myself (my first mistake), so I reached out to Gemini to give me some basic instructions (second mistake).

Ai can't do non-linear logic well at all and it's especially bad at teaching, so this hasn't yielded anything that works.

Take a look at what was created after hours of back and forth - needless to say, hitting the buttons does nothing to the channels clips in Live:

This is my first post - I've only very generally familiar with Max programming so please try to explain what's going wrong in super easy language if possible.

Any help you can off would be greatly appreciated.

Many thanks
Adam
