Hi, I'm very new to using Bela. This is my first project with it. I'm trying to send a midi control message from Bela to a Max for Live device to control Ableton's global tempo. I'm using PD vanilla and I'm trying to send the message out using [ctlout 1] and then receiving it inside M4L with [ctlin 1]. I just don't know how to make sure that Ableton will pick up my control message when I run the IDE. There's only one message stream so I'm only using one channel.
I read in another post that Bela should show up as a potential MIDI device in Ableton's preferences when it's plugged into USB. That doesn't seem to be the case for me though. I'm also triggering an [hw 0 0 0] >> [send bela_setMidi] assuming that this would open port 0 but I'm not sure if that's even helping haha.
Any help is appreciated. I just need to make sure Ableton gets my control message and I'm sure there's a simple solution. I just don't have enough experience to know what it is. Thanks!
