I just made my very first patch with Max and it is working!

The patch takes a midi CC signal from a knob on my Traktor Kontrol X1 mk2 change the value and send the new value to another CC where the 2 digit display shows me the new value. I needed this to transform the value 0-127 to something more readable. In this case i wanted to use the know as a looper selector of 1/32, 1/16,.......4 bars so i had 8 positions and actually 16 possibile output values from the knob (0 and 1 first position, 18 and 19 secondo position and so on) so i used some "if" to get the following results: CC value 0 and 1 displays 32, CC value 18 and19 display 16, and so on until CC 126 and 127 are the 4 bar loops and show me the value 44.

I used ctlin and ctlout to get and send the values to the controller, and with a midiinfo and umenu i made a selector where you have to choose the Kontrol X1.

All this is working great in Max until i don't export it and use in Live. In Live when i open the menu for choosing the device X1, the only device that shows me is a midi max device on another midi channel. But i don't see all my others midi devices like in Max (sound card, push2, max1, max2, IAC drivers, ecc...).

I'm sure there is something i don't know because I'm a complete noob in max, probably it's a well known issue, that's why i need your help!

I hope my english is clear enough and u understood my problem :D

You can only get midi from the channel it is on in max for live. There are some third party objects that allow for other midi inputs.

could you suggest me one of those third party objects?

oh thanks a lot,
could you suggest me one of those third party objects?
