Description
A compact and easy to read midi information display (Max For Live device). Initially I made this for myself so no matter what zoom level, the note being played is easy to read at a glance.
Easy Midi Monitor displays all the info needed in one, single, small but easy to read window in the standard, high contrast Ableton colour theme...
Note name
Root note
Chord
Velocity
CC# / note number
Value / Amount
Tempo (adjustable BPM)
Virtual keyboard displays the notes being played
And now with optional NIGHT mode in v02, to match our other NIGHT series of devices. Just click the large Note to switch colours (Live yellow or Spookyinc's NIGHT red)
