I used to do this with clyphx for a live show - I wanted certain parameters of my delay and reverb on bus a and b to be automated, the only way to do this in Live 9 was with clyphx ( a scipt device helper thingy) (Im talking about session view/Live mode here not linear sequencer mode, this is for a concert)

So in a clip in a live set i could move a macro control knob on a midi track (or automate it within the clip) and that would send a message to a receiver knob in the fx bus - I could not do this without Clyphx.

It sounds great in theory but sometimes the knobs were slow to respond with Clyphx and in a live set it was problematic.

Can you now do this natively in Live 10? or do I need to go and get Clyphx again?


Has anyone else found another way to automate bus parameters by connecting them to clips? Is there anything in MaxforLive which does this?

Thanks for reading!

M4L's "Map8" device is what you need.

Thanks for the suggestion - I'll look into that....

It says it's for controllers

- Essentially what Im asking to do doesn't even need a controller - It's simply that I want hands free automation from a clip in session view to change values in the FX on my bus - no controller needed.

Do you see what I mean?


( Im using an APC40 mk2 and midi fighter twister but that's irrelevant to the above point)

It's still relevant without a controller. Basically it's just a rack where macros can be mapped anywhere in your set. You can then draw clip automations for these macros.

THANK you soooo much jur!!
