I am trying to build a m4l device that will be able to control mssiah bass line. this is the first time i have ever attempted to do anything with m4l and am having quite a bit of issues getting what i have made to work.

so far I have managed to lay down all the necessary knobs i want to use and connected each of them each to a CTLout.

it looks like this....

After throwing it in a midi channel and routing that to the right channel I am still getting no results. what am i doning wrong. The top bar is indicating that midi is being transimited but mssiah isnt doing shiiiit.

help please. thanx in advanced.

I don't see anything technically wrong. For a test try another piece of gear and like, the modwheel CC1 or something to make sure it's not your setup. Anohter thing you probably want to do is add a change object so that you don't flood the c64 with the same values over and over from sequencing the knobs (ie: 1,1,1,1,1,1,2,2,2,2,2,2,2,3,3,3,3,3,3,3 to 1,2,3)

maybe you can edit the mono synth one in the library for ideas?

I totally made a midi controller for this in max. It was really buggy. Anyway I think I used this thing to see what I was actually sending.

Thanx sooo much guys!!
I did actually try that her_prof. Thats how i ended up where i am at.
I checked my setup and can get midi sent via ableton easily to mssiah. when just using live view and drawing envelopes in clips. Will try making change objects. gonna have to do some reading about it.
I havent tried midi monitor to check my shizz. Will give this all a try!!
