I have been experimenting with this app (you'll see an earlier post of mine where I was stumped about creating new interface layouts, but have since sorted that out--alas I am a noob). However there is one little thing that I can't seem to get my head around: when I create a slider, i.e. "myHSlider" as in the default from the app, I can see in the Inspector the slider is configured as Float Output, Range 1. Works fine from my iPhone. However, I want to use this to control a gain~ object. So, I set "myHSlider" to have a range of 128, and uncheck "Float Output" (interestingly, the example of the myHSlider in the "creating_objects" subpatcher IS configured this way, but the one in the c74 app patch connected to the "router" doesn't match it). Well, if I set it up with a range of 128 and make a new "myHSlider" on the iPhone interface, I can control a gain~ object from within my patcher on the computer, but NOT from the iPhone(well, I guess I get 1 step --I do see it moving). I suspect there's some woefully basic thing I'm missing here--anybody have a suggestion? Thanks

I don't have that app so I don't know the inner workings, but it seems to me that the easiest thing to do would be to multiply what you get from the app by 128. Now you scaled the incoming 0-1. floating point slider to 0-128 (make sure everything is floating point!!).

Thanks--indeed, that's what I will do. That way I can just get this thing working! Since I'm a beginner, I have no idea if this was something specific to this app, or some basic Max concept I wasn't getting.
