hey everyone,

I have a (probably very basic) question:

ctlin returns

1. value
2. cc-number
3. midi-channel

in that order.

I have 6 touchfaders CC1 - CC6 on channel 1, and I'd like to display the value of each one in a number box.

so I patched this:

ctlin
|   \   \
v   n   ch
  X
pack
|
route 1 2 3 4 5 6
      |  |  |  |  |  |
      v1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6

seems pack is only triggered by cc-number after the value has been changed so effectively, value lags 1 cycle behind

I've been messing all afternoon with trigger, pack, unpack, select, route and although I RFTM several times I can't get it right.

help?

maybe this works like you want it to?

Use [swap]

Code:

ctlin
| \ \
v n ch
| /
swap
| |
pack
|
route 1 2 3 4 5 6
| | | | | |
v1 v2 v3 v4 v5 v6

thanks @toxonic

i'll check out the patch you posted right now

edit: that patch read out all incoming values as being ch01 so it didn't quite do what I wanted

thanks @pulsed; [swap] seems indeed to be exactly what i need .. edit: yes that did the trick

thanks again for the quick help -

i'm working with the AKAI MPD 24 and soon with the APC 20, I'll post stuff once i've come up with something useful or cool

the basic idea is to make the APC a kickass MIDI controller for everything else but ableton live : D

ah, ok, i connected the wrong ports since i thought you want to route teh values corresponding to the channel number. i didn't even think for [swap] - when connected correctly my patch does pretty much the same like [swap]

oh you can do it with even fewer objects with just
