maybe somebody can tell how to make a midi mapping for my synth.

the idea is to click a buton next to the number box, make the movement on the controller and fix the controller number in ctlin.

I do it like this. There are likely smarter ways, but this works

Here's a utility I made that does this. Note you could easily extend

this scenario to also 'learn' which MIDI channel to read, as well.

thanks to everybody, this forum really rocks!!

sorry for the terribly dumb question.. but when one saves objects from text, such as above.. where in the max folder do you save it?

Here's how I do it at the moment. Might be a little more comlicated than necessary, and I've recently been having trouble with ctlin, so I'll have to adapt it for midiparse.

How do you then convert these into objects to use in max??

copy all the strange text between and including the ----begin/end_max5_patcher------

then choose new from clipboard from the file menu

To post in text like that, select the patch and choose copy compressed from the edit menu

its all explained in the sticky "how to post patches to the forum"

You might also want to check out this javascript that I've written for dynamically creating, connecting and deleting [ctlin] objects.

Just been having trouble getting the actual objects people have been posting to get into max.. (Externals?). I tried to do the Install thing, but when I navigate to the folder all the objects are grayed out...!

Thanks for having pity on a noobie like me

I have a folder on disc containing all the external objects (.mxo files), libraries, abstractions and javascripts etc I use and another one for all the ones I have created myself. Then I added them to the max search path using options > file preferences from the menu. If you don't want to add something like this permanently you can just make sure that all the files you need are in the same folder as the main max patch because max checks here and the searchpath when looking for abstractions, externals etc.
