Description

Quick Mapper Pro is a visual control surface and an extended version of the free device "Push Buttons":

https://metamagicum.gumroad.com/l/PushButtons

It allows you to quickly map any parameter in you Live Set to trigger its values in different ways. Optimized for quick DJ actions and touch input it allows to control via slider, gate / toggle and "chain select trigger".

Originally I created this device to automate MIDI Effect chains, so I can switch between different MIDI Effect Racks during live performance:

In Live it's not possible to create rack chains ("Chain Select Editor") using MIDI Effects, because a chain can only route audio signals. So you have to disable the MIDI device ("Device Activator") or mute its audio in the rack which is awkward in live situations. So here's the medicine.

Beyond that you can use this device in various creative ways.

MAIN FEATURES:

- 4 modules a 8 mapper + min / max + randomizer

- Chain select, slider and gate trigger option

- Auto quick map functionality (mapping without headache)

- Eye friendly GUI optimized for touch control / touch screens

- Master overview window (resizable) + transparency option

UPDATE 1.1:

- Added track title bar info to the master window menu bar (auto updated)

- Allow to add info text for mappings - click the pen icon to enable / disable this option

NOTE:

There are two versions (FX and MIDI) which do not differ in their function. If you are using this device in a MIDI context, use the MIDI version so that you can place it directly next to a MIDI Effect / Instrument Rack.

Happy mapping!
