M4L Device, that controls cc7 or cc11 for midi tracks in project?
Hello
I am looking for something special.
Since the mixer in Ableton can only mix audio signals, I am looking for a M4L plugin that can control the automation of any midi track for an external instrument in the project via knobs or sliders. The only possibility is to set the automation e.g. cc7 to a suitable value to adjust the volume. And that for each track separately. I don't like that at all about Ableton.
I'm looking for a mixer that runs in one track but can control any other tracks volume via cc7 or cc11.
Is there something like this somewhere?

Ok, nobody knows.
You could try an external that allows to send midi
from one M4L device on different channels

Example (on Mac):
Jumping on this topic. Do you know if it's possible to use Live's new MPE abilities to send MIDI over several channels ?

With MPE individual notes are dynamically assigned to different channels. I don't see how this feature could be used to send ordinary MIDI on various channels.
I thought MPE was nothing but sending notes on different channels. I don't know, in Max, where is the voice allocation handled, but I thought there might be a way to explicitly target a specific voice.
Naively I thought this patch would work, when MPE is selected as the output of a MIDI track. But the output differs from what's printed in the Max window.
"I thought MPE was nothing but sending notes on different channels."
that was what we did before MPE. :) but sure, it is quite similar.
the conversion to regular channel data is your least problem though, because i doubt that a live device can send midi events to different places.
Well, maybe I don't get your point but if I configure a MIDI track output to MPE and route it to a virtual MIDI port, then monitor it in Max, it's received as normal MIDI note on different channels. So it does have the ability to send MIDI over different channels at the same time.
