Hi there,

I am trying to use these two objects to route a multichannel signal to various location in my patch but it only works for the first channel. Is anybody experiencing the same issue?

It seems there is an undocumented second argument to mc.receive~ object – number of channels... (just found by trial and error).

Copy patch and select New From Clipboard in Max.


edit: also mc.send~ has this second arg telling how many channels are transmitted.

Yes, it works exactly as you say... Thanks for the info.

It was documented in Max 8.0.0. but is seems to have disappeared in Max 8.0.1 - if I remember right on the mc.send~ reference page (used to when clicking the link on the MC Object wrapper page for mc.send~/receive~.
Here on Max 8.0.1. those pages have disappeared (broken link) and also the info in the auto complete window is missing.
