Is there a command that clears the midi notes from a clip? I can’t seem to find anything so I’m guessing the answer is no.
in the full Max, the midiflush object (apparently) can do this.
[flush] and [midiflush] will both sit in the midi stream and, when activated, end any notes which happen to be playing.
I don’t think that’s what Jesse’s asking for. It sounds like he wants to modify the contents of a MIDI clip, removing all notes from it.
No simple command for that; it’s a series of LOM calls. (getting the address of the current track, finding the currently playing clip, and editing its contents…)

From memory I think using select_all_notes and replace_selected_notes (replacing them with nothing) might work, but it’s been ages since I last messed around with the LOM

@greaterthanzero and @ehg are correct.
Here’s how I would do it (assuming you want to erase all notes from Clip 1 of Track 1).
I just tried the patch, it works.

You probably know this already, but just in case here’s the webpage that tells you everything about the LOM :

And here is the book that helped me make my first steps (and a little more) with MaxForLive :
