Description
Version of the ESX8GT CV Instrument device with MTS-ESP tuning support (see URL link). The original ESX8GT CV Instrument is itself a version of the CV Instrument device from Ableton CV Tools, but made to work with the Expert Sleepers ESX-8GT expander by bhenry1790 (https://maxforlive.com/library/device/6235/esx8gt-cv-instrument).
The pitch CV generated will automatically follow tuning from an MTS-ESP master plug-in if instanced in a session, otherwise will automatically revert to 12-TET.
Notes from bhenry1790:
You'll need to add the es*encoder~ externals to Max for these to work.

Unable to use calibration function, no signal seems to be registering on the tuner stage. I am using an ES-9 with the ESX-8CV on header 3, receiving oscillator source on ES-9 input 1 (able to monitor sound).
When opening plugin in Max 8.1.11 to try and debug, there are many Max console errors pointing to gen~ patchers within SNAC_04.125 subpatcher. Inside SNAC, all the gen~ patchers are showing as default (in1 + in2 ->out1).
Hope these clues help :)
