Description

The first utility device for Ableton Live that lets you morph between two presets with one single knob. Designed for both quick experimentation and precise control, with per-parameter scope, fast UI, and safety feedback built in.

Features

---------

Morphing with scope:

Turn Morph on or off per parameter, so only the parameters you choose will respond to the morph dial (0–100%).

Multi-device support:

Works with instruments, audio effects, midi effects and third party plugins. Morph between presets without losing A/B snapshots or per-parameter on/off within the session.

Snapshot capture & edit:

Capture two snapshots (A and B) from the current device. Edit A/B directly in the table (enter numbers, “-” to clear). The device auto-sets Morph OFF if A and B are equal, and turns it ON again if you later capture/edit them to differ.

Only-Active view:

Toggle Only Active to show just the parameters with Morph = ON for a clean, performance-ready view.

Safe refresh (no data loss):

Refresh the track to pick up newly added devices or new parameters. Existing A/B values and on/off states are preserved.

Live feedback outputs:

The green rings around A and B report whether any snapshots exist for the selected device.

Table UI designed for speed:

Compact, inline editing. Parameter names left-aligned; A, B, and Value centered. “-” shown when A/B are empty.

Color coding: Morph ON = green, OFF = gray, A/B present = teal, Values = gray.

Bulk actions:

All On / All Off quickly toggles Morph scope across every parameter of the selected device.

How it works

-------------

1. Drop the device on a track.

2. Choose a target device from the dropdown.

3. Enable Morph ON for the parameters you want to move.

4. Capture A and B (or type values directly).

5. Turn the Morph dial (0–100%) to move between A and B.

6. Use Only Active for a focused performance view

Requirements

--------------

- Ableton Live Suite with Max for Live (Live 12 recommended).

- Works on macOS (Windows not yet tested).

This tool is built for producers and performers who want:

- smooth A/B morphing across many parameters

- precise control over what responds (per-parameter scope + filter view)

- live-safe behavior with clear visual and boolean feedback

- a fast, compact interface that suits both quick play and detailed tweaking
