Yeah although this can be done manually with the midi tools there is no way of assigning modulation to automate it because the midi tools are not devices. So far the only way I have found to do this would be through the live api with M4L proper devices. I hope that one day we will be able to assign mappings to midi tools
I guess the other way would be to modulate macros parameters assign to something like stepic, but you wouldn't get the cool animations like are shown here.
forgive me if im being too much but is there any way you could help me do this myself? i use m4l devices all the time but I've never delved into max so not sure how i'd go about it, is it fairly simple to do?
@@ElemuntDesign @ElemuntDesign m4L isn't super difficult, but it is quite the jump to start in with something like this. I recommend starting with making a utility device and then add more to that as you learn. What you'll probably want to look at is shaper midi device that is polyphonic though you might be able to do some chains that have a bunch where you could print midi from it. An alternative would be looking at some plugins such as Harmony Bloom that you can automate parameters to create a moving euclidian song like in the video. This is the easier way definitely.
Not quite. Although creating midi tools is available in 12 they end up being in a special class that does not allow modulation parameters to be mapped to them still. The best way to do this is still through the API. The one workaround would be to build in an LFO into a midi tool via the new Live 12 midi tool panels, but you would have to do that for each tool / parameter and they wouldnt be mappable to anything else. Similar to how the auto filter has a behind the scenes LFO though midi tools operate a bit different from device panel devices.
@@GenocidePanda not sure. I haven't seen it done yet using the new midi tool panels not have I created one so I'm not sure what options are made available.
