getting a variety of clock divisions from live transport?

I was using m4l.api.observetransport and then using metro 4n 8n 16n and what not. Then I was routing those through a gate object so I could select which clock division I wanted. Seems messy, is there a better way?

You could select the division by sending 4n 8n etc. to the right inlet of a single metro.

Oh hey john! :)

There is no need to observe the transport like that; the [transport] object is very easy to sync properly with live. And in this situation you get very high-res sync.

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.

I've set up a small test kitchen for you, where you can easily set up some sync.
Note that the controls for [transport] aren't needed when running in Live, but the metro is.

Brock: HA, it's so obvious. Thanks.

Wetterberg: I don't fully understand yet but I'll look into that code and I'm sure I will. Thanks.
