Using a vst sequencer inside Max standalone
Apr 08 2019 | 8:07 pm
I'm trying to use this vst MIDI sequencer with another vst synth inside Max. Tried to figure how to patch it up myself with no luck so I went searching and found this post and this patch: https://cycling74.com/forums/communicating-midi-between-vst-objects
So, without fully understanding the entire patch I loaded up my vst's and was surprised I got sound. The issue is, once I click on transport, the sequencer starts but only sequences for one bar, then stops.
For those that have some experience with this, why is this happening? How would I patch this up to get it to sequence properly? Also, when running the transport, if I turn it on and off it will sequence through all the steps, but I have to turn it on and off so that's not useful. :)
Patch and screenshot attached.
