Get current midi mappings

Post by feelthetrip » Sat May 18, 2013 3:35 pm

Hello,
I would like to know if this is possible to do on Maxforlive.

On every song I create, there are several params I map to my midi controllers. Faders, filters... each track has its own different params I want to take control manually. So, what I am looking for is a way yo get those maps to a maxforlive device and translate each of them to its named dial.

Something like Sixteen Macros but bypassing the process of mapping params to it. It just get the maps from the midi mappings.

Next thing would be connect this device via OSC and then I could actually see what params are modulable by me and control them via ipad. At every moment of the song creation process.

So, when opening a project, this device would inform me what params are relevant, control them, add more... etc.

Hope you guys get the point!

Thank you

You cant access the midi mappings through the API, but you could sav presets of what the mappings are per song...

Time to get coding mate...

You cant save presets of midi mappings, you'll need to make the mappings within your device and then save them within it....
