Description

Guitar Note Map is a Max for Live MIDI device that converts your MIDI notes into a real-time guitar fretboard view.

It’s designed for guitarists and producers who want to instantly see where notes, chords or scales land on the neck — whether you're composing, practicing or translating keyboard parts to guitar.

Key Features:

Customizable Fretboard Layout — Choose number of strings (4–8) and set any tuning: standard, drop, open tunings or baritone setups.

Live MIDI Note Display — Works with MIDI clips or live input, showing single notes or full chords on the neck.

Hover to Highlight Matching Notes — Instantly visualize octaves and identical pitches across the fretboard.

Ableton Scale Integration — Automatically syncs with the selected Project Scale, marking in-scale vs. out-of-scale notes.

Clean Visual Interface — Lightweight, fast and distraction-free — works as a permanent reference panel while you play or write.

Perfect for learning fretboard logic, experimenting with voicings, or staying in key while composing inside Ableton.
