Routing APC 40 knobs in Max (not 4 Live) correctly to dials
Sep 22 2012 | 10:09 am
Hi everbody,
I am having trouble using the knobs of my APC40 in regular Max, without Ableton's Live. Maybe I have the wrong approach, but here's what I did:
Everytime I use the knob 48 (the first one at the top left), it responds correctly. But when I turn other knobs, it catches their value for like a split second before closing the gate. Even worse when I try to turn several knobs at the same time. The data gets all mixed up. How can I route the data correctly to a live.dial (or any control for that matter)?
Thanks a lot for your help!
- Sep 22 2012 | 2:00 pmDue to execution order of Max (right to left) the gate will pass the first non matching number which is received at your dial (before the number is tested by the [sel] object), thus causing the jumping. In this situation, it is easier to just use route. See the example in which I also 'fixed' the problem in your method...
