Ben,
1) Go to LOGIC's environment. Create a new Instrument. To do this use the local "New" menu in the Environment.

2) Set the Instrument's Port to "to MaxMSP 1". (Assuming Max is running)

3) Now connect the Fader's MIDI output (it looks like a little white arrow head) to the new Instrument.

4) In max, create a [midiin] object and connect it to a [print] object.

5) Double click the [midiin] object and set the MIDI input to "to MaxMSP 1".

Now when you move the fader in LOGIC, the MIDI messages should arrive in Max. To filter out only the messages you want, use the [ctlin] object.

Hope this helps,
Mitch
