MIdi Shaper with Looping Maintain Region (Not a single point)

Post by wilkins_micawber » Tue Feb 21, 2023 5:38 pm

Is there a max for live device that's like the Midi shaper but offers a sustain loop region instead of a single-point sustain? Only reason I'm not switching to Ableton is because I can use reaktor to give me a sustain region in Bitwig.

I mean a loop region, as in more than one point

I want the sustain segment to consist of more than a single point. Unless I'm mistaken, you can only have a single point of sustain. I wish to loop the sustain over more than one point instead of the sustain being stationary.

A possible workaround is using a mseg vst that outputs cv, but I don't see an easy way to set this up

Yes it is possible, and it's done the way I told you :wink:
