Hoping to crowdsource some troubleshooting steps I can take for the following problem: my grid isn’t being recognized by any of the Max4Live devices I try—the serialosc dropdown just says “none”.

grid-test.maxpat and indeed all of the Max patches in the Monome package work just fine, so this is really only a Max4Live problem as far as I can tell. Curiously, all the devices (e.g. markeatsclips, gridlab) seem to recognize the grid if I open them in Max, but not if I use the edit button in Live.

Any ideas greatly appreciated! I’m in Live 10.1.30, Max 8.1.5, MacOS Big Sur

I had that last week, where the arc was shown but not the grid. Two or three times unplugging fixed it (on windows though).
Then only other reason I can think of is big sur, as it is yet to be announced compatible by ableton afair

I guess it must have been some kind of transient problem—restarting all the relevant things enough seems to have resolved the problem!
