Simple MFL example: Sidechain any Device Control

[alex.the.forge]

nice work Mike! looks awesome

making me think I really need to dive into M4L

[jOop.]

Excellent stuff. Wanted this functionality for ages. This is definitely the most useful MFL example I've seen so far. Finally I can sidechain EQ movements!

The Buffer Shuffler looks pretty useful too.. I've used a billion and six different Buffer apps in my day (I use Reaktor) and even my jaded sensibilities were impressed whilst watching that video.

Dope! This is exactly like the Fruity Peak Controller in FLStudio. Been wanting this in Live forever..

Sidechainer not in the beta yet?

patch is great indeed. respect for mike.

but that particular functionality *was* available for ages. and do not required m4l, take a look here: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php?t=128394

there is even option for smoothening midi response that someone else requested. it is called "inertia".

and here's a proof of concept

What's the "Knight Rider" effect I noticed in your Max Audio folder?

it it the turbo boost that jumps the car in the air? or is it the turbo boost that just makes it go faster?

i gotta know!!!!!

bumpity bump.


very cool video Mike, thanks for posting!!

I've been under the impression that we couldn't control Live devices which bummed me out, now I'm unbummed!! if I follow correctly this means we could make a patch that randomizes Operator's settings, yes?

did anyone else think the volume was really low? looks like my computer's speakers are cranked and I could barely hear it (Live is using my sound card, youtube is using the onboard card which I'm not as familiar with.)

Dude an Operator randomizer would be pretty easy to build. Yes you can use the API in M4L to control any device parameter, including the Ableton ones like Operator.

I thought of you just the other day when I was using my LineFO device to mess up Operator. Fun times.

Yeah, the problem with a vst or third party solution is that every move of the knob, you get an undo point in Live. so if your an indecisive kind like meself, your gonna run into problems.

Can't talk about The Knight Rider. Top secret stuff. when it's revealed people will know!

[Johnisfaster]

so you can link max to any line device, but does it work for 3rd party plugs too?

Nice job, Mike! Great to see the focus on Live integration in these patches.
