I seem to be facing the following simple problem while analyzing midi inputs in Max:

Whether I use a ctlin, notein, midiin etc to read information from my midi controllers, the MIDI channel output indication on them is always "1" even though I am sending the midi through other channels, e.g 6 or 9.

Anyone knows what this could be?

Yep, this is a limitation of Max4Live. Ableton's channel routings are the only things aware of real MIDI channel, and Max4Live only sees/sends on a sort of "dummy" Channel 1.
