Hi guys

I'm trying to route MIDI between Ableton Live and PD using Mac OSX 10.4. I've set up a couple of IAC buses and can receive MIDI in PD from Live ok, but when I send MIDI back to Live using a noteout object it is not received by Live's armed MIDI track. The MIDI is reaching Live because the MIDI Track In Indicator in the Top RHC is flashing, it's just not getting to the track.

Looking at the MIDI stream in MIDI monitor Live gives this:

TIME SOURCE MESSAGE CHANNEL DATA

16:24:30.721 From IAC Bus 1 Note On 1 C3 100
16:24:30.846 From IAC Bus 1 Note Off 1 C3 64

whereas PD gives this:

*** ZERO *** From IAC Bus 2 Note On 1 C3 100
*** ZERO *** From IAC Bus 2 Note Off 1 C3 0

So PD does not seem to be outputting any kind of timestamp, could this be the problem? The only other difference seems to be the velocity of the note off message.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Cheers

In other words have you tried turning it off and on again?

Worked a treat.

Doh.
