Yes, this! Sorry i missed it earlier...

Cheers

Any chance for making an encoder function like that oh so neat oscillator parameter in Operator?
It would make working with larger synths (e.g. Bazille or Zebra) so much breezier…

Hi, can you elaborate? Not really sure what you mean...

Mr. Sigabort, I own your PrEditor (for Push2) and it's just excellent...highly recommended

Do you have any plans to make a script to use PUSH 2 on its own with other software as an independent controller?....

That would be just great.

Or is there anyone doing this?

Hi, thanks for the kind words. Can you elaborate a bit on what you are looking for?

And how does that relate to what you want for other plugins? You want changing certain parameters to automatically change other parameters on push display?? Help me out here with some description

Sure Sigabort, and you are welcome.

I mean making Push 2 universal midi controller if possible to use with iPad or control other hardware, software?

now, Push 2 works only with Ableton (and does a great job)

But if I open it as a Standalone controller, it is "dead" , only the pads work for notes, (you can't change octaves, scales, midi channels), no buttons or pots work, no screen.
In other words, it HAS to be plugged into Ableton to work.

What if I want to use PUSH2 with iPad? Or with a standalone VST? I can't.
At least if it worked like PUSH 1, to see pot values and information on the screen, (if you could make it work just like in Ableton (with other VSTs) that would be fantastic.)

I'm not very good with describing abstractly these practical things, so I'll give an example.

Let's take Bazille, which 4 equal oscillators.
Each oscillator would require 2 or 3 pages for complete mapping. So it would be very nice to have the exact same, hmm, bank architecture as in Operator:
: a knob to choose the oscillator
: this knob could take a position in all of these 2/3 pages and keep its value throughout those pages (as in the clip, showing Operator)
: so I have 2/3 'generic' pages of oscillator parameters with a dedicated knob to choose whose parameters I'm modifying.
Likewise with other modules (filters, envelopes, LFOs).

[As I imagine, it's probably like some 2 dimensional bank, where bank choice is determined by 2 parameters in tandem – bank button under the screen and a knob.]
It probably might be summed up like:

Gridlock is a generic mapping tool that include Push2 - not sure if that's any help? www.sigabort.com/gridlock

I see what you mean... interesting idea... I'm doing some work on PrEditor in a month or so, so it's something I'll bear in mind... it's quite a lot of work tho, so will need some thought... are you on the PrEditor beta list?

Actually you don't seem to have a dot com domain. You have the dot co domain so you probably intended: www.sigabort.co/gridlock

Hi Sigabort,
thanks for the link, I read the specs and basic stuff and it seems to work only with M4L Max?
I would like to use PUSH2 with iPad, to control apps in iPad..that's not possible is it?
Thanks

Hi, ah, I see. Never tried to be honest... I'll try find some time to give it a go.
