Description
Meta Macro basically looks like an Ableton device rack and resembles its macro controls, with a floating view and many convenient functions for Live performance and customization.
Map most parameters in Live to the macros, assign custom curves, create snapshots of the macro dial values for a live performance, and much more!
The Meta Macro device comes with the following key features:
- 8 Macro parameters that can map 2/4/8 parameters(see versions).
- "Locate" button in the edit view for each mapped parameter, for easier navigation of the set
- "Locate" button on the floating view to easily find the Meta Macro device in the Liveset
- User curves for each mapped parameter. Curves can be imported and exported. Quick selector for linear, exponential, and logarithmic curves.
- Integrated floating view system (all my devices use this system) can snap multiple floats and arrange them to your liking in clusters
- Snapshot functionality (for different) and the possibility to only trigger the snapshot on downbeat.
- Exclude the loading of individual macro dials through snapshot loading
- Full Midi mapping capabilities for all important functions (done in device view, not on the floating views due to limitations of Max for Live/Ableton Live)
- Color Editor to customize each individual Meta Macro instance
Please note that there are three versions of the meta macro (capable of mapping 1, 2, 4, or 8 parameters per macro) See the other versions.
Update 1.1.
- Added live.banks for control surface integration (Push, etc)
- Added display of "real" value of the curent parameter instead of 0.-1 to advanced curve editor
Update 1.5
- Added the ability to map the macro dials to a control surface script control
Gone are the days of tedious manual Midi mappings! The Meta Macro now automatically stores your control surface mappings, so you can easily load pre-configured instances from one set to another. Plus, you can save the Meta Macro nested in a Rack to transfer all your mappings that refer to nested controls.
With the ability to change the LED feedback style of your hardware controller, you can now enjoy a fully customized music-making experience. And with the whole mapping logic refactored for increased efficiency, you can focus on creating and performing without any interruptions.
Get ready to take your music production to the next level with the updated Meta Macro device. I can't wait to see what you'll create!
