    Excellent job!!! At least it makes Scaler 3 usable in Ableton! I really appreciate it.
    I love the "Open scaler" button also that can open the same instance of Scaler from any track.
    Great Job!!!

    Is it possible to use it with Maschine 3? It would be amazing if it worked with other VSTs! Ableton needs multi channel midi output!

    Fuuuuuurst of all THANK YOU for making this. I do python, but max is not my cup of tea :P. Wondering if you've seen this https://audioswiftapp.com/midi-effects-wrapper-for-vst-au-plugins-using-max-for-live/. i was using for scaler 2 for awhile, however i was finding that duplicating the device would straight up crash my live. With your device that does not happen thank god.
    Some weird behavior i noticed. Idk if solvable if but would looooove for this kinda device or in future updates.
    1. If you have a track armed, when you first open the device it does not let you play midi input until you click something in the UI that triggers midi. Not sure what this is maybe some weird vst midi wake up thing? Notice with most of these vst~ devices that the window that opens takes away lives focus because the vst is hosted in max not through live's plugin host. Might not be something fixable without some crazy Ableton / max integration update.
    2. Midi output from triggering chords & such within the UI does not record unless u record from another track. Another weird one. it even shows the midi being output just doesn't record it to arrangement.

    3. Duplicating your device does cause odd behavior. Not a crash, but it starts playing the audio like normal as i input midi in Ableton & then stops outputting audio all together. Through out though, it still shows midi is being input in the device. Maybe something odd in regards to the channel filtering?
