Description

Futility v4 is a MaxForLive device that gives you very handy shortcuts that aren't natively implemented into Live.

It also provides a floating mixer window.

It works on the currently selected track:

- un/mute the selected track

- un/solo the selected track

- un/arm the selected track

- unmute, unsolo, unarm every tracks

- show/hide the envelope/modulation tab in the detail clip view

- un/fold the selected track

- un/zoom the selected track vertically and horizontally in Arrangement

- toggle play/stop the selected clip (in Session)

- automatic track arming option

- focus to the browser/arrangement/device view (useful for navigating with your keyboard's arrow keys).

- quickly move your selected clip to a new Lane (requires Live11)

- save your Live Set from a midi controller.

- close the device/clip view

- "Devices Switchers" are shortcuts to turn on/off the first 10 devices/plugins in the selected track's chain.

- "Track Control" is a floating mixer that opens up at your current mouse's location!

- Duplicate Clip

- Clip Length x2

- Devices AB'ing
