If you have M4L, this device will help you.

I actually already implemented this in my fUtility M4L device quite some time ago... for my personal use, i.e I haven't pushed the update yet because the Browser auto-hide implementation isn't ideal because of M4L's limitations.

I just wish I could move and close the window with the mouse.


I'm confident the workflow is good with this implementation but let's see how you feel about it after a moment using it. I only had a very few persons asking for this at some point, but it looks like they all got used to this design ...

I've recently made one that's universal, i.e it works globally on any Delay/Echo/Spectral Time instance that's currently selected in the Set.
I'll try to publish it asap.

I downloaded one called Web4Live and they explained on the gumroad page that you gotta download Max 9 and add it to the Ableton / App-Resources / Max folder.


Hi there,
That's definitely not the method I gave, you mixed it up with someone else's explanation (which, for best practice I would ...
