Getting Data out of Abelton Rack Macros
Hi - I am having problems using an Novation SL Mk ii with auto map - i think because it is confused by the amount of midi mapping I have in my improvised Abelton Setup.
I have definitely given up trying to get it to work (tried everything and then some) - and therefore I am looking to replicate its functions using max for live.
Please can anyone give me some leads on the following (tutorial links // APi abstractions etc - I have started to feel more confident in my max programming)
-> How to get data out of the Abelton Rack macros. Both values and names.
-> How to process sysex data to send out by midi.
Any leads gratefully accepted.
Best Regards

this is a patcher not written by me, but it does extract the information of the makro knobs of an rack. it might help you:

Here's a basic patcher with getting the value of the first macro on the first device:
