Max as a Midi Controller that sends MPE data
Dear Forum,
This video shows Roli sending MPE data into Ableton, and all the events are recorded in the MIDI clip:
Questions:
1) How can I make Max8 behave as a virtual Midi controller sending MPE expressive data?
2) I'm testing a chord generator that detunes a note some cents. For instance, a Cmaj that has detuned de E, 13 cents down. But can make the MPE value appear in Ableton.
I have seen that [mpeparse] has the pitch-bend value in the sixth output, and then I can map that value into a [midiformat @hires 1] also 6th input. But I can't see how to then send this changes into Ableton as a MIDI intrument. Perhaps I just need a MIDI patch with [midiin] and [midiout]?
When I play with it, the events are not captured in Ableton.
I have selected "Use MPE channel as Voice" box. Also "Patch Supports MPE"
But I can see any modification in the MIDI clip.
In this patch, if I play the MIDI note, it does not appear in the MIDI clip; I'm missing the basic method to send MIDI events as a MIDI controller.
Are you recording to a 2nd track?
MIDI Effects are located after the MIDI Clips in a track's signal path, so you can't record MIDI output from MIDI Effects in the same track (it would be needed to send back data into the Clip's input, creating a feedback loop).
OK, now it is resolved. I'm recording to a second track, setting up the MIDI input from the first track, where the MIDI instrument is located.
Thanks for the answer
