[PD] ReacTIVision to Max4live (don't hate)

[Menno van der Woude]

Hi,

another way would be to use midi directly from the reacTIVision application.
In the midi xml file you can define what data goes where, depending also on
the fiducial. It is fairly easy to define which fiducial outputs midi 'knob
data' to which channel. Then to receive this in Reaktor in Windows does
require something like midiyoke. In linux jack and qjackctl are great for
this purpose.

This way you would not need Pd or max. Though it simplifies the output, and
does not allow you manipulate the data, so that would depend on the exact
kind of data you want to receive in Reaktor.

Best regards,

Menno
