Anybody Here Experienced with MAX?

Hi Gang,

I fully intend to follow the tutorials and learn MAX (Cycling '74)
but I’m on a tight deadline for this one:

I need to make a little app that takes a MIDI Note On (regardless
of its velocity) and spits it back out with a specific fixed velocity.

I need one case for Note Ons (any velocity 1-127)
and another case for Note Offs (velocity zero).

This is controlling lighted buttons so I’m not concerned about stuck
notes that would arise from changing a velocity of zero to something else.

I know it should be stupid simple to make but I’m just now launching
the MAX demo for the first time.

Can anyone PM me? I’ll return the favor someday.

The only time I have used Max was for the Max For Live beta, but I swear that there was a tutorial for changing all velocities to a fixed number. Maybe try asking on the Ableton forum.

You should be able to take data from NoteIn and reformat it with MakeNote, using the correct or desired velocity. You should also be able to use If/Then to change velocity (if velocity > 0 and <128, set velocity to value).
