Distributing Read Only devices

How do I freeze a read only device for distribution without locking myself out of the device to update it?

Read Only device? Not sure there's any such thing...

Depending on the nature of who you're looking to distribute to, you might want to look at making either a standalone application or max collective.

@S4RACEN - well there is a checkbox for this exposed in the UI.

Project Window > Project Settings > Project Inspector > Max for Live Device is read only

And given this is in the Max for Live sub-forum, I'm guessing this is what AUDIOMATT is asking about.

My trouble is that checkbox neither seems to stay checked nor has any impact on whether the device is editable in the future. And I've found no documentation about it, either.
