Description

eCo (and its midi clone eCo-m) is a simple, clever CPU saving device.

As opposed to native Live devices, 3rd party plugins and M4L devices always consume CPU even when idling... eCo solves that.

eCo is placed before the target cpu-angry device.

When a signal enters eCo, the target device is instantly powered on. When the track's volume reaches -inf, the target device gets automatically powered off by eCo.

Place eCo BEFORE an audio plugin/audio rack.

Place eCo-m BEFORE a midi plugin/ midi rack/ instrument rack.

If you want to know what the Hold knob does, download the device and place your mouse over the knob...

It's free and works with any Live version that supports M4L.
