Timeline WaitUntil

0 votes

I have made a new Timeline where I use WaitUntil and would like to send a message to move on. I have much older Timeline where I used WaitUntil successfully and I can't find what I am NOT doing on the new one for it to receive the MIDI message to move on. I have attached both. 

I am sending MIDI from Max and the working Timeline WORKS!

Hi Anne,

I've tested both and both work for me
Hi Anne,

We cannot open your files right now, but could you please check to see if the non-working timeline has the WaitUntil's track MIDI channel set to a different value than the working timeline?
This is a lesson for all!
I was using KymaControl for the WaitUntil with my iPad while I was building the Timeline and then I wanted to switch to using a pedal that would, through Max, send a !KeyDown. I had taken that out of the WaitUntil which meant that the WaitUntil was not receiving the appropriate message. A liability when switching control sources.
Sean, I solved the issue. See above.

I had replaced the !KeyDown with a !Next button in the WaitUntil which meant that the WaitUntil was not receiving the appropriate message. A liability when switching control sources.
