Convert Max Patch to M4L

Hey!
I`m working with Max now for a while and always uses Soundflower to integrate it into my DAW. Now I bought Ablton with Max For Live and I want to load my patches I programmed in Max 6 no in Ablton. But till now I found no way to do that. Do you have an Idea how I can manage it?

You have to port them manually. There's no automatic conversion.

At its most basic this involves substituting [plugin~] and [plugout~] objects for [adc~]/[ezadc~] and [dac~]/[ezdac~] objects.

If you've got timing or sequencing elements in your patch then you might have to use some Live API objects to tie your patch's timing elements into Live's sequencer.
