Mapulator is a midi mapping tool for Ableton Live - now you can create smart knob mappings that are totally unlike anything you can make in any other piece of music software around without some nutty midi translation or m4l.
"You're probably familiar with changing control values in real time in Live, as well as sequencing them with envelopes and automation editing. Mapulator, a new free Max for Live device from DJ Tech Tools contributor BentoSan, is a hybrid of these two methods. Set a custom control mapping (similar to an envelope), then scrub back-and-forth through it with Mapulator's "Smart" control knob. " - quoted from Ableton
You can set up to 8 parameters on a single instance of Mapulator (stack mapulator devices if you need more than just 8 and learn your knob to both instances. The parameters will then follow the curves as you turn the knob, Incredibly useful for stacking multiple effects on a knob to be triggered at different points ! Mapulator can also automate button presses, just go create a square graph that goes from 0 -> 1 instantly.
Mapulator is fantastic tool for Producers, Dj's and Live performers alike, you will never want to approach mapping knobs out to a controller the same way again, guaranteed.
Mapulator is availible free over on the DJTT blog - http://www.djtechtools.com/2012/02/16/m ... r-ableton/
