- leigh hunt's lh_ objects, for which I can't find a live link

http://www.theimpersonalstereo.com/max-externals/

- lh_objects are stable but can't handle large sysex messages, and don't work on windows. v1.03 doesn't seem to work at all, v1.02 is the only version I can load.

- imp. objects seem to crash Live frequently

- lmh_m4l_midi doesn't populate menus correctly and crashes Live and Max frequently

What are your experiences with using sysex in Max for Live, and does anyone know of other externals or stable methods of sending and receiving sysex with Max for Live?

In my experience 3rd party externals on system level are inherently problematic.

For sending sysex from Ableton Live (not M4L) you can use ClyphX/Macrobat.

Hi, I've never had any reports of crashes on lmh_m4l_midi. Happy to look into this if you want to contact me.

Hello Lee. lmh_m4l_midi crashes Live 9.6.2 when I delete any device that uses it, and crashes Max 7.2.4 when I close any patch that uses it. I can't see a PM option on this forum, how should I contact you?

Hi. contact me at m4l@sigabort.co.uk. If you can send a simple patch and let me know which OS i'll take a look. cheers

Same problem here, Max crashes a lot since I started using lmh_m4l_midi.

It seems to happen randomly when creating (simple) patches, running latest version of Ableton Live and Max.

I suspect it having something to do with incoming sysex data.

Will send you a patch later on .
