Device Details
Overview
| Name | Version: | DSI PRO 2 Control 1.0 |
| Author: | techbuzz |
| Device Type: | MIDI Effect |
| Description: | This is the control I created to store patches created on the PRO 2 in Live. Each time the device is loaded it sends a SYSEX message to the PRO 2 to U1 P1 with the name Ableton Patch. This is that sound. The midi device receives NRPN and sends NRPN to the PRO 2. I made a short video of the operation and how it works. https://youtu.be/Ffe7OaJo338 |

Can this device capture the state of a preset? ...So I could then automate it...

Royalston,
Thank you. Right now it will not import the patch that is loaded on the instrument. This works one way right now. The patches are stored in Ableton when you save this in a track. For it to work like you are asking I need to read the patch out of the PRO 2 and interpret this data. This could be done. That is what the sound tower VST does. There would need to be a request patch button or something like that. I write the data that is in this patch now when it is loaded into Ableton.

Hi
I currently use your devices to control Omnisphere 2.5 hardware profiles, and it works great. Can you possibly make a Moog Sub 37 ?

Hello vertibration,
I don't own a Moog Sub 37. I make these interfaces for synths I own. If you want to loan me one I will gladly make you an interface and return the synth to you. : )

Hello and thanks a lot for sharing this. The UI is really well made !!!
Unfortunately, I've got issues with your plugin as it breaks other plugin functionnality. I asked to a programmer if he can find the problem and here is his report. Just to share with you. Hope that helps ! I'll will not use this version of that plug as it is not enough efficient for my purpose but thanks again ;-)
Here are the comments from the programmer :
" the issue is within the "DSI_PRO2_NRPN_to_Sysex.js" file on line 25: "eval = array[0];" does not make sense. It's replacing the eval object with something else, which means no script will be able to use eval() anymore. Since all Max for Live devices exist in the same "universe" so to speak, they can break each other like this. To fix this, I think simply deleting that line or commenting it out should solve the problem. I could do it as well and send you a modified version of the device, but I'm not sure if I'm allowed as it's not my work that I would be sharing.
In general, his JavaScript code is not very efficient either. There are 401 functions calls happening just on loading the device and these functions have a massive amount of if statements. This is probably a big reason why it takes so long to load the device and I haven't checked how often these functions are being called while using the device yet. I would be careful using this device, especially with many instances and in a live setting as you probably do."

WeirdNoise,
Sorry it breaks your other device. It works perfectly fine for me in my setup. I decided to share it for FREE incase it would help someone else. It is FREE to edit. That is the entire point of m4l by the way. You post a device for others and they can do what they want with it. So edit away. You could always buy the paid version from soundtower. The device loads all parameters in the patch to send a sysex message to the Pro 2 to match the patch in Ableton on loading. This is why it takes so long. If you remove all the java, which is only a few files, just the max objects alone take forever to load. There is no way around loading that many objects. I am not a java programmer. It was the only way I could figure out how to do the sysex part of the patch. It works. There are literally hundreds of parameters in this synth. Every thing else is basic Max.
I would love to see a efficient version. Feel free to have your friend edit the code and send it back or post it.
