HydrasynthEssentials

Description

a Max4Live controller for the essential functions of the ASM Hydrasynth. It allows bidirectional control of the critical parameters, with the primary goal of making them available for automation/modulation in Ableton Live.

The intended workflow is that the Hydrasynth hardware will store the core sound via a preset saved in one of its 5 banks and the M4L device will act as an 'override' for any supported parameter. The expectation is that the exploration of the sound will be driven by the hardware using the Hydrasynth's excellent user interface; the software will respond to the incoming MIDI data and set the controls accordingly. By default, the software controls do not affect the hardware until their values are first set by incoming MIDI; the reason for this is that it prevents the default values of the software controls from being sent to the hardware and messing up presets.

NOTE that the device is working well enough that I'm starting to use it in my main production template. No doubt there are still bugs. As I shake them out, I'll update the device.

If you use this device and find an issue with it, I'd prefer if you'd report an issue on GitHub rather than here, if possible. Thanks!
