Map “Select Device” to a Macro?

[M-bition]

Hi,

I would like to know if there is a way to select a device with a macro knob or button.
I searched for this without any luck…

I am using an Instant Twister max for live device but this does not map to “select device”.
So I figured if I can map it to a macro I can get Instant Twister to map to this macro.

Other ideas are welcome, thanks

Macro's can only map to the parameters that their rack contains.

Cheers

Thanks for the reply

Maybe I use the wrong phrase for macro…
There are several max devices that can map anything in the set but not to “select device”

Does anyone have a trick or knows how to do that?

Sounds like you’re trying to select a device with a controller?As far as I know that can only be done with a controller script. There wouldn’t be a way to do it from within live I don’t think.

Well you can map a button or key from a controller to select a device or group. No problem.
It is unfortunately not possible with the twister script I am using. It only maps to parameters I guess.

And if I map the device to note C5; can I map the script to something that sends note C5 and thus selects the device?
I tried this with some send-note-devices but I could not get it to work.
