    I want to create a M4L MIDI effect to output on multiple MIDI channels to a plugin, but apparently Ableton changes all MIDI to channel 1. Is there a definitive workaround for this?

      With [send/receive] you could transmit the different MIDI channels to M4L devices on additional tracks and route these tracks to the plugin
      OR
      using [vst~] you could control the plugin directly within the M4L device.

      Thanks, Broc. I was very surprised to find that send and receive objects can work between different instances of M4L. It's very counterintuitive, but it makes what I'm trying to do pretty easy.
