Trying to control a bigger max project with a MIDI hardware (novation Launchpad X (LPX)), I am facing the following issue:

- I'd like to navigate between tabs with the left/right arrow button on the LPX

- If I map the received CC 94 to a 'setactivetab' command (see screenshot), this value will be "locked" to that specific command. Somewhere else in the project, I'd like to be able to use it again to navigate between other tabs.

In a more general aspect, I would like to be able to re-assign the MIDI notes (11 to 88) and CC for different purposes depending where I am currently located in the project. Something like a 'onFocus' switch?

it is a simple rule : don't saw off the branch you're sitting on

in simple words you need hard wired navigator, and then you can

assign the rest depending on which patcher is active.

 max object for that, you insert one into each patcher

and they can open or close the gate to receive midi messages,

which then can be reassigned etc for that patcher.

I would insert umenu filled with tab names and use next or prev messages to scroll arround

Don't know what that 2 left/right arrow buttons send, but maybe you can also reset to specific tab by long hold - release or double tap in one direction....

Great! I didn't know about the active object, that exactly does what I was asking for.

I will also make use of the umenu in order to get a bit of order.

Thanks for your advice.
