I dont like Lives Note function, so I made this.

The picture explains all.

Have fun.

Update 1.2:

Huge workaround to get everything stored in its initial line and prevent Max from creating new " and \" signs on every load

    this is pretty useful... especially coupled with a cue maker patch for jotting down problem areas of a song while listening back to it. however i notice that there are a bunch of "////"//"/" - characters added before and after my notes as i'm adding new notes in constantly. do you have any idea how to make these from appearing in the textedit area?

    Hey, as you can read in the update-notes i fixed it.
    That was pretty painful:
    Filtering out the " \" signs with regular expressions, and routing the text through the single module (except Javascript) in Max which can set the text of the notepad without adding new " \" signs to it.. :P

    Love this device! Do you guys know any device like this that will allow me to drag a photo (jpg, png etc.) in an area like notepad to be used as a graphic/Icon for an instrument rack?
    Drag and drop from finder would be best. Thanks again for this device!
