This hopefully solves one of my main problems related to mapping all 16 knobs on my APC using a single button press. Can you confirm if this is possible - i.e. i want to be able to press the pan button on the APC and have that automatically map all 16 knobs on my controller. It looks like your patch supports only 8 rotary controls per instance, or can it support 16 knobs? If not, can I use two of these things in parrallel? Thanks Sunil Sunil Wed, 23 Dec 2009 07:15:44 +0100 /?task=view#josc149 It is possible to use multiple of these devices in a Live set to support more knobs and buttons. I'm not sure what the pan button on the APC this, but this device is designed to work with clips. Its contents can be modified to do other things though. Vayner Wed, 23 Dec 2009 07:23:00 +0100 /?task=view#josc150 This is brilliant and gives me an idea for a device that solves some issues i've always had in my live setup. Thank you! Could also maintain the latest version on maxforlive.com ? tempus3r Wed, 23 Dec 2009 08:04:37 +0100 /?task=view#josc151 looks greatand promising, i 'm gonna test it right now! LeK Wed, 23 Dec 2009 08:21:51 +0100 /?task=view#josc166 Hi there and thanks in advance for making this device...just wondering where the device should be located? Sorry if the answer is obvious! justin Sun, 27 Dec 2009 02:10:38 +0100 /?task=view#josc167 You can drag it onto a MIDI Track from anywhere. Though I suggest placing it in the Max MIDI Effects folder. Vayner Sun, 27 Dec 2009 02:18:20 +0100 /?task=view#josc168 this looks great but the select device dropbox is dead for me,i cant choose anything here.an example.i have operator in my set but select device wont open up to show this. JOhn gorton Mon, 28 Dec 2009 12:21:29 +0100 /?task=view#josc169 Hey John, It works for Max 5.1, but 5.1.1 broke it. I have a fix for this: http://covops.dreamhosters.com/uploads/Clip%20Mapper%200.7.1.zip Please give this version a go. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Mon, 28 Dec 2009 12:28:29 +0100 /?task=view#josc170 Now every time a clip is triggered, the knobs and buttons on the device will jump to the chosen parameter and display its value. this doesnt work. john gorton Mon, 28 Dec 2009 17:24:19 +0100 /?task=view#josc171 yeah,definately not working.none of the clips are storing the midi info. john gorton Mon, 28 Dec 2009 17:48:29 +0100 /?task=view#josc172 The clips don't store the data automatically. With the version you currently have, you have to create an external text file. And once created, you can read its contents and check if it updates when you add clips and parameters. - Bjorn Vayner Tue, 29 Dec 2009 06:05:47 +0100 /?task=view#josc173 i did create a text file,but still nothing.i will just wait til some sort of video comes out i guess as i suck at manuals and such.great job though! john gorton Tue, 29 Dec 2009 11:26:43 +0100 /?task=view#josc174 Yeah, I realized some issues might pop up and that change will be made. So I refrained from making a video that in the end will cause more confusion than it clears things up. For example, the next version will not need these text files. That being said, it should work with the provided instructions. But I understand the written form doesn't work for everybody. I have a whole section on this site devoted to that fact. I'm a little swamped this week, but as soon as the new year hits I'll have the time to polish this thing up. A lot of the work I did for this will be useful for other similar types of devices. Like storing value snapshots and stuff like that. So you'll definitely hear a lot more from this project in the near future. Cheers, - Bjorn Vayner Tue, 29 Dec 2009 11:33:22 +0100 /?task=view#josc176 I'm looking for a way to send increments of 1 bpm to change the clip tempo. any advice? I was thinking the process would be - warp - consolidate - set first warp marker - map parameter to the warp marker bpm Here's my dilemma: 'm looking for a more elegant way to switch up the tempo on a clip playing through Ms. Pinky. The problem is when I adjust the pitch on the turntable to beatmatch to some live audio, and then switch from vinyl control to the original clip the tempo doesn't follow the pitch on the table. Or maybe have the clip tempo just follow the main tempo. Cheers. dustin Tue, 29 Dec 2009 20:49:50 +0100 /?task=view#josc177 It was not working for me either. LOOKING forward to when it does. It's a great idea for sure! JuanSOLO Tue, 29 Dec 2009 23:44:22 +0100 /?task=view#josc185 How Can I map with APC40 + clip mapper VST instruments? I want to play with APC clips - clips in Groove agent and Darbuka. When I want to select VST, only options is clip mapper 0.8.?? I`m new-green with APC. apsolution Thu, 21 Jan 2010 12:18:07 +0100 /?task=view#josc186 It's an amazing app, I was thinking of something similar days ago!

Thanks for asking :) I'll try to get the video up by the weekend. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Wed, 10 Feb 2010 12:26:47 +0100 /?task=view#josc205 Hi all. I have a question...a question or two... The save function does not work for me...i have Win 7 64-bit, Live 8.1.1, Max 5.1.3 and this amazing Clip Mapper 0.9.6, every time i load a saved project Live got crashed?? I have tryed in Windows XP and same results...every time i load my saved project...Live got crashed. Only thing is that i have Max 5.1.3 demo/trial version...could that be the problem? Thanks in advance and keep up the good ideas. nex Sat, 20 Feb 2010 06:12:04 +0100 /?task=view#josc206 There is no Max for Live demo yet. This patch won't work with the Max demo. You'll require the latest Live beta too I think. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Sat, 20 Feb 2010 06:21:32 +0100 /?task=view#josc207 Tnx for the reply! About that Max demo/trial... Now i have full version of Max for Live 5.1.3 and latest Live beta. I have lot of other patches from web that are working great! Even the save function is working in each one of them! The only problem is Clip Mapper, it always crash my Live when i try to Save or Load project or Save Max/Clip Mapper?? I have tried every version of Clip Mapper and even on other PC's. But it allways finished crashed?? Regardless to that Clip Mapper is one of the best patches and really great idea! Cheers nex Sat, 20 Feb 2010 09:49:00 +0100 /?task=view#josc208 I'm not sure if I can help you here. Live crashing is definitely Ableton's department. I'd help if I could, but as this is the first I hear of it. I'm not sure what exactly the problem is and if my patch has anything to do with it. Please send your crash packs to beta@ableton.com , they will hopefully make sure it won't crash in the future. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Sat, 20 Feb 2010 10:03:29 +0100 /?task=view#josc210 I got it finally to work! I have installed Max 5.1.2 and now it works great! Saving and Loading works, its not even crashing anymore :) Cheers nex Sun, 21 Feb 2010 07:18:26 +0100 /?task=view#josc217 Is wanted to use at in audio effect chain. is it possible to get acces of the parameters of the devices in the chain? i mean not only the eight macro controls? that would be great for my setup kind regards Paraplexus Fri, 05 Mar 2010 11:04:23 +0100 /?task=view#josc225 Unfortunately this is currently not possible. Its a limitation in the Live API. We can't access devices inside racks. But as soon as that is possible, this device will be updated for it. Vayner Sat, 20 Mar 2010 02:29:27 +0100 /?task=view#josc230 I like it really useful and solves many problems, I'm guessing select mode only works if your wanting to go to a clip in the same track as the device, in your vid for example if you wanted to change the parameters in ABL with out triggering it if you go across with the mouse of cursor keys it selects the track and shows you the devices etc.... so you would have to wait till the end of the loop and re-trigger it in the devices normal mode, not really a problem and a small price to pay for a top device. Also when I put it into learn mode it erases any previous stored parameters for that clip, is that right? Live 8.1.1, Max 5.1.3, OSX Andy Wed, 31 Mar 2010 01:08:44 +0100 /?task=view#josc231 The selection mode becomes useful if you use the Up/Down arrows + Track selection to select clips. For example Faderfox controllers are designed to work like that. You could select clips with the knob and trigger them with the buttons. Enabling Learn mode does clear the display of all parameters, but whatever is assigned to a clip stays assigned. If you want to add/change parameters of a clip, trigger it while in Learn mode. Lastly, if clicking on a clip doesn't seem to do anything. Trigger another clip first. The device is designed to not to call the parameters if the same clip is triggered twice. Vayner Wed, 31 Mar 2010 02:15:23 +0100 /?task=view#josc232 Cool, that makes sense. I've got it all working fine, I've got all the various parameters stored for each clip etc... when I launch a clip it recalls the various parameter states but titles don't change. Say I have 2 tracks track 1 has delay track 2 has flanger. Map and store the delay to clip, map and store flanger to clip, when I launch either clip the dials and values change fine relevant to the plugin state but the titles, dry/wet etc never change. Andy Thu, 01 Apr 2010 02:42:10 +0100 /?task=view#josc233 Nevermind, I've figured out that if you don't have all the 8 knobs assigned it will include some of the knobs from the last clip. Cheers Andy Thu, 01 Apr 2010 02:48:44 +0100 /?task=view#josc235 Ah phew.. You had me worried there for a sec :) Yes, that is a feature. It allows you to have clips with like only 4 parameters assigned to blend in with controls of a previous clip. Its designed so you can mix things without having to add more buttons and dials. Vayner Thu, 01 Apr 2010 02:55:05 +0100 /?task=view#josc236 Yeah it makes sense when you think about it, I might have a think about a way to implement some sort of colour coding so you could see at a glance where the parameters split between clips, probably not necessary though. Andy Thu, 01 Apr 2010 08:41:16 +0100 /?task=view#josc240 hi i have max 5.1.3 when i duplicate a miditrack with the clipmapper live crash everytime chris Sun, 11 Apr 2010 17:54:14 +0100 /?task=view#josc252 Hi Chris, I will check this out, but other than reporting it if I can reproduce it, there is not much I can do about Live crashing. Ableton is currently heavily busy trying to make Live more stable though. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Mon, 19 Apr 2010 03:29:20 +0100 /?task=view#josc260 Hi Vayner, I love your clip mapper, thanks for the great idea. Unfortunately, it is not working in my setup. I did it a hundred times, with different plugins, different versions of clip mapper (latest is 1.0), in different sequence, but get very arbitrary results. In 90% of the cases, the parameters are not saved, in 10% they are, but in a rather random fashion. I could not find out any regularities on when they are saved. Anyone with the same issues have it solved somehow? manu manu Mon, 26 Apr 2010 08:09:22 +0100 /?task=view#josc261 Hey Manu, The thing that updates the memory of the patch is the transport. So each time the transport is stopped, the patch has all the data to save. If you're adding parameters while nothing is playing, press play and stop before you save the set. I hope this accounts for the strange behavior. If it doesn't then there is a bug to investigate. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Mon, 26 Apr 2010 08:20:19 +0100 /?task=view#josc262 PS: I use Live 8.1.3 and Max 5.1.3, freshly installed two days ago. manu Mon, 26 Apr 2010 08:22:12 +0100 /?task=view#josc263 I tried all varieties of start and stop, before and after save. To be honest, I think there is a bug in my system. Do you have skype, paypal and half an hour? This is very important for me, so i need to get it solved. manu Mon, 26 Apr 2010 08:46:20 +0100 /?task=view#josc264 Can you reproduce this problem in a small set? Or does it only happen in a big project? If it occurs in a small set, please send it to b at thecovertoperators.org and provide any steps needed to reproduce. I'll check it out and see if I can spot the bug. Cheers - Bjorn Vayner Mon, 26 Apr 2010 09:00:56 +0100 /?task=view#josc265 Hey Bjorn, thanks a lot for your help on how to set up clip mapper. As we found out, I was expecting clip mapper to do something it does not (yet). I was looking for a device which would save not only the selection of parameters, but also the VALUE of those parameters directly to the clip. This would vastly increase the useability of the clip mapper. I started modifying your patches, combining clip mapper and Pattrstorage, but got stuck because i could just map one parameter at a time, and multiple tracks need some work anyway. Would you be interested in working on such a device? Greetings manu manu Mon, 26 Apr 2010 14:20:16 +0100 /?task=view#josc281 This looks great, I have a couple questions: 1. Are the clip mappings tied to the audio that's in the slot, or are they like dummy clips and you can switch different audio files in the session slots and they parameters will be mapped? 2. Will this allow me to mess with the parameters and then get back to the default settings easily? Pardon if these have already been answered I read the Ableton thread a few weeks ago. thanks mb3 Sat, 22 May 2010 20:41:05 +0100 /?task=view#josc286 hi, thank you very much! you are saying it's possible to use automap - how to do this? could you please explain a little? cheers sone Mon, 31 May 2010 12:39:19 +0100 /?task=view#josc287 @mb3 1. They're tied to a specific slot, regardless of the clip on it. 2. No. Vayner Mon, 31 May 2010 12:57:41 +0100 /?task=view#josc288 It just works like any other device. If its selected with the blue hand, then automap works out of the box. Vayner Mon, 31 May 2010 12:58:20 +0100
