Samples menu not changing to reflect current sample

Details

  • Project Name: The Amanuensis

  • Expected behavior
    in a track set up to play samples, there is a umenu that displays the current sample (either just played or selected). This should change corresponding to the sample heard from each incoming note.

  • Actual behavior
    This umenu is not changing either when notes come in or even when you manually select a different sample using the menu itself.

  • How to reproduce
    Start up The Amanuensis and make sure you have a drum samples folder chosen (in "settings"). Using the menu, set a track to record and play "samples" and play some MIDI through that track (if you don't have any other MIDI controller, you can always use the keyboard letter keys, in the formation of a piano, exactly like in Ableton Live if you're familiar). You should now be able to observe the aberrant behavior.

Components

The umenu in question is located in sound.maxpat. It remains to be seen where else from there the issue may lead.

Deadline

There is no deadline, but we can discuss how long it might take to execute.
