One M4L LFO MIDI -> Multiple Targets?

Post by jrhillma » Fri Oct 10, 2014 12:37 pm

I have a track with an instance of Operator (and a bunch of other stuff) creating background drones. I'm modulating the Level on each of the oscillators in Operator using multiple LFO MIDI plugins. The thing is, all of the LFO MIDI settings are identical, so three of them are (in my mind) redundant and a waste of horsepower.

Is there any way, either natively in Live 9 (v9.1.5) or with a 3rd party option, to have a single LFO MIDI drive multiple parameters? It seems to me there has to be a way to multiplex the output of the LFO MIDI, but I haven't been able to figure it out. :(

in the api tools there are these plugins called adial and adial4 or something like that. this would do what you want. also you would be interested in the m4l paramtermatrix.

i'm pretty sure they are part of this pack:

you could use the MultiMap device - it's already included.
just map an LFO to MultiMap's input dial and then map its 8 params (with mix/max settings for each) to wherever you want.
