thanks for Studer Vista reference ! I spent quite some time looking for similar ideas and never found anything that came that close. They're obviously encoders and not potentiometers which would be totally useless here ! The caps still have a small indicator in that picture (that's why I've painted ...

Thanks for the tip. I've read the documentation of ClyphX Pro again, and updated my live setup workflow. Still perfectible and long, but for anyone interested, here it is. For each track that I want full control on (ie: main bass) ; I want to be able to trigger play recorded MIDI clips OR notes sent...

Thanks for the feedback! Yes the controller above is the current prototype, I'm currently working on the next version (very similar). I don't think producing it en masse is possible at this time: the time and care to build this is very high, and the components used are themself very pricey.. so in a...

Yes, so far ClyphX Pro is my best option I think.. but honestly it's very hard to maintain in a big set, and _between_ sets. Maybe I'm missing something here: even if we're not talking about keeping presets between sets, how do you switch between presets with ClyphX Pro ? Again, one example of my us...

Hey everyone, I've been tinkering with this idea and wanted to share it with you all: https://www.dvma.be/karl.png It's a MIDI controller that has holes in its display, allowing for knobs to be placed directly on top. This way, the digital info you need is right where your hands are. (disclaimer: I ...

Hi, What I want to achieve should be simple enough: load presets on the fly I'm using both external plugins and native effects. I save them in racks. I want to switch between presets, just like Macro Variations, triggering them from a clip, when I launch a scene. The problem with macro variations is...

Hello, I'm looking for a way to save "Instrument Rack" presets like Macro Variations so I can easily switch between them during live. I can't use macros directly, because I want to be able to control the mapped value from the VST plugin itself (ie: when I change the program of the VST, I w...

Bump

I still can see so much use for this.

... and with the (soon?) maturity of server components, imagine all the nice stuff we could achieve to improve workflows!

Can you confirm that it also works with VSTs and not only "chrome" parameters?

Thanks,

Did you find any way to do this? I've just asked the same question here https://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=236701 I hope someone finds the solution! Can you point me to controllers that automatically do that? (handle the last touched parameter in both chrome and VST windows) Thanks!

I just found that this question has been already asked here: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=216590

... but no answers

Hello, I think I've looked everywhere, but I didn't find a way to access the "selected" parameter in an external VST. This should theoretically be possible since Ableton Live automatically updates the "automation" value (to do it, open an external VST, active automation mode in A...

that's it... I just had to click on "quantize"... Thanks

I spend hours and hours warping stuff (drums, mostly) in Ableton Live For instance, sometimes one kick is slightly shifted : Live detects it perfectly, but I still have to click on the little grey marker, make it yellow, and move it back to where it should be... Is there any way to automate this pro...

Thank you everyone for your answers ! So if I get it correctly, the MCU is maybe what I need... I've searched for video examples with MCU and Ableton Live on youtube, but didn't really find anything really huge. I've also looked into Push before opening this thread, but I'm really concerned about ha...
