Nested Macro Mappins

Post by R. » Tue Mar 30, 2021 1:51 pm

Hi Guys - Im pretty sure I know the answer to this question but this forum is such a great pool of knowledge Im wondering if there is a work around.

Let's say I have 2 chains or separate instrument racks with different synths embedded within them. Each instrument rack has different features assigned to their macros e.g chain 1 has a filter mapped to macro 1 and chain 2 has the Amp Attack envelope.

As I launch a scene the chain selector is automated to selected either chain 1 or 2. Each of those chains is embedded in the 'master' instrument rack and I am wondering is there any way to map the the macros so that as you launch each chain then the name of the macro would change to represent what it was. It would be useful to be able to see this kind of information when playing live on push you see.

Hope that makes sense.
