Ableton ANALOG instrument Macro Error for Filter Type

Post by miekwave » Sat Sep 28, 2013 7:24 pm

I need to assign "Filter Type" on my ANALOG instrument to a Macro where it only Selects between LPF12, LPF24, BPF12, and HPF12
How do I do this? As of this time, the Macro Editor does not give me the option to define that. :(

/wahhhh

In the Rack, hit the macros button or whatever. It lets you define the minimum and maximum range of a knob, much like midi mapping.

I haven't actually tried this myself on that particular control. But you didn't mention trying it so I thought I'd throw that out there.

The "Macro Editor" have mapping range for Filter Cutoff, Pitch, Amp Level, etc. it does not have a range for Filter Types.

In that case.

All I can think of is a workaround. Which involves using a rack.

And then making a rack around that rack.

Aside from that. It is unfortunate that they did not make the option to limit that parameter.
