Description
Yet another m4l device for Sonic Charges MicroTonic.
This one tries to replicate the UI of the original device. It provides randomization and it can save a bunch of presets.
Included in the dowload is the max device, a drumrack and a MIDI map you should load into MicroTonic via its MIDI preferences.
V1.1: Bugfixes, added toggles to include/exclude parameters from randomization, updated drumrack

Now customarily, I can control it with CC's or configure the plugin in native control, then have it map to Push or any User Settings for encoders. As for randomization, I can use µtonic's own Piku scripts, and as for save, I can just save the preset or bank for the device.
So what advantages are there in using a M4L device? For one, I wish there was a way of selecting a Pad other that clicking it so it was immediately ready on a per channel basis. But I do like that I don't have to map a repeat of every per-channel parameter.
Also, the values jump in any case when switching pads, but that's no biggie. So how do you work whereby you concluded that the M4L approach was the way to go?
Cheers!
