help with configuring axiom 25

Post by zakary » Fri Mar 19, 2010 11:16 am

hello,
is it possible to configure my axiom 25 to cotrol the same certain features of all instances of an au instrument but only for the instance that i have focused on/selected?

For example, let's say i have Alphakanal's automat on track 1, track 2, track 3 and track 4. Can i set up pots 1-4 on the axiom to control only the ADSR envelope of the track i have selected?

thanks in advance

Live already uses inteligent focus on whichever instrument or effect that is selected. You cannot map to an individual parameter from session to session unless the instrument/fx is in your startup template. You can't automatically map to ADSR envelope for every new instances of an instrument either. You may be able to if you save the instrument with the mapping though. I leave that for you to try and let us know.

thanks so much for your reply,
i'll try this when i return home and will post back the results.

if i understand correct, once my instruments are setup and I've done the mappings for each instrument and all this is part of a template that i load as default, then when i focus on one instrument and fiddle pots 1-4 (mapped to adsr) it will change the adsr only on that instrument and not any other instruments that happen to have the same pots control the same functions. If this is the case then i'm covered.

cheers!
