This is dope man, I'm still waiting for mine in the mail and people like you are already on it, customizing it. Despite some initial doubts I had when it was announced, it became apparent pretty quick to me that we would be able to spend some time setting this thing up to be ready to work to our preferences.
i got mine today and its insane, I've already gotten used to it and can write and record sketches quicker than in ableton. its faster for basic things and its like a super controller for doing automation, but copying and pasting clips and rearranging stuff is slower than with mouse. still doable tho i just learned those hotkeys an hour ago
thanks for checking it:) i think that it would be wise if Ableton would add possibility on Move to change macros functions on fly for all parameters of the device, so it would be possible to mess with whole preset and make own in box.
Have you tried importing wavetable presets to Move? It would be great if they allowed that and other instruments like meld in the future. Also, do the macros map to the knobs?
Yes, that was the first thing that I tried and it didn’t work unfortunately. It will give an unsupported device error when you try to export to Move. Maybe it’s possible to reverse engineer the wavetable patches from a Move project or straight from the microSD. Yes, the macros are mapped to the knobs and what’s even cooler is that the Move knobs are touch sensitive, if you touch one of the knobs the name and current value will show up on the screen.
This is great, I don't see why you can't just rename the macros in the templates that Ableton offers? I don't think they are premapped, they just tell you that they can be?
@@medenine4828 You could, but then you have to right click and rename each macro every time. If you create a new template that saves you a lot of clicking and typing as Live will automatically name them for you every time. Not a big thing, but I’m a sucker for efficiency.
@@americoperez810 Agreed, unfortunately there is always a pad selected when you go into a Drum Rack track and the macro knobs map to that pad's Drum Sampler parameters. Let's hope that they open up some MIDI implementation and this becomes possible.
@@cursortoxyz I mean, it's already possible with the instrument racks, to a degree. So. I'm sure it would be a similar thing for the drum rack. Fingers crossed 🤞 that they add something.
