Currently working on a project involving max and Logic in which we are using visual triggers to alter states in Logic. We'll be using two visual triggers to change two different parameters one will change affects and aspects of the midi which is fine we understand how to do that. The one we're struggling with is changing the timing/bar it's on in Logic. For example the visual trigger is green it'll play from bar 1, the visual trigger is read it'll play from bar 4. Is this possible to do, if so how would we go about it?

Hey guys and gals.

Really appreciate any support.

you could try using markers in logic then setup a goto marker fader in the environment that listens to ccs from max

or you could set logic to respond to mmc and use sysex from max but it's time code format so you can't exactly talk in terms of bars.

or logic's keyboard shortcuts can be mapped to midi so you could map forward (what happens when you hit .) or something like that.

if you're triggering pre created events and moving non-linearly you might want to assign regions to touchtrack in the environment that is triggered by max, then you can handle all the timing in max.

i haven't gotten into it yet but logic x's midi scripter also has SendMIDIEventAtBeat function, i think it's more to queue things up, the transport needs to be running already. i'm thinking it might be useful when passing messages back to max.

Hey Jonah, thanks for the reply, i didn't realise someone had sent one!

I'll give this a try tonight thanks again!
