Description
A simple patch to get around Ableton Live's limitation of only sending Program change messages at the start of a clip. Choose any unused CC. Create CC break-points at any point within a clip. Their values will be converted to a Program Change messages of the same value.

I do not have Max for Live. I am going to install it. But before i do so, i had some questions since you have worked on the midi devices in Max.
What i want to do is send Sys Ex msg'es (to send prog cc & bank changes to external devies-like keyboards) in Clips so that i change sounds on my keyboards when i enable the clip in live sessions.
Will i be able to do this or create such a thing using Max?
DO you have a work around sol for this?
Any help will be grateful
Thanks
I'm not sure I understand completely. Ableton Live can already send program change and bank change messages when a clip is launched. You don't need M4L to accomplish that. Now sending a sysex message would be a bit trickier but certainly do-able. I wouldn't be surprised if somebody has already posted something like that as I would guess that would be a common request. If you've done a thorough search here and not found anything, shoot me an email at [email protected]. I'd be glad to work on a patch to do that and share with the group.

is it feasible?
I shall probably name a track after you.
