Just playing about with the "Performer" modulator in NI Massive and I like the way the curves are handled there, and I know proper curves have been requested a lot here, but I was just thinking maybe a cool way to approach it in Live might be in a similar way to how grooves are handled - with a "Curves" folder in the library containing a file format where you can drag them straight to clips OR EVEN BETTER straight to a knob or parameter somewhere and have it loaded in as a clip envelope for that parameter - i.e if the curve file runs for 1 bar and the clip is 2 bars then it automatically disables the "linked" button for that parameter.
but I guess this would maybe require a similar browser to the Groove pool in order to visually show the curves
there definitely seems to be plenty of room in the envelope section for another chooser like the "groove" chooser - I suppose it could also have a hotswap button to take you to the curves section of the library...
I actually don't think it would be a bad idea to have another icon above the groove pool icon that opens a "curve" browser, and basically have it set up in exactly the same way as grooves with a hotswap and drag/drop on to a parameter would be a killer feature
a whole bunch of envelopes in the library
