aftertouch mapping

Post by eduardoborsuci » Tue Jan 22, 2008 9:36 am

hi everyone,
I have been playing my new keyboard with aftertouch for some time and it really adds the expression to the sound... the problem is that only the Sampler has a 'visible' mapping to aftertouch. Any tips how to map aftertouch to operator / electric / analog / tension?

Thanks you a lot!

you need an instrument that supports AT
...don't think those support AT... :(

I also think aftertouch is an immportant expresional tool

:) YES
one step further...
I requested this n the wishlist sometime between v4-5
we need modulation devices (like in renoise which I love)...
LFOs
Envelopes...
Step seq...
the works...
(these devices should 'over ride' or 'add' to clip envelopes if any...)
very modular.... could help make lively 'organic' soundin' modulation...
(I'm just being a bitch , already...
but we want it...we need it...)
...
definitely an improvement for all the hands on folk...
you could even cancel some devices lfos alltogether
once these devices are there ...
maybe add a modulation sect...??? with 8 of each...hmmm!@#

Apparently, neither aftertouch nor mod wheels are well liked at Ableton HQ. The aftertouch support in Sampler is most likely there only for compatiblity purposes.

I'm a novice...but what about using MidiOx? Could the MIDI messages for aftertouch be remapped with MidiOx into sometime that Live *could* act on?
