Wow, this lets you apply swing to only certain notes in a MIDI clip..... unbelievably useful.
How on earth can this not be possible as standard in Live?
I only have two feature requests:
#1: it's it's quite fiddle to set a precise swing amount, even using shift. Would be great if we could also double-click and type in the number.
#2: the swing % doesn't match up to the % when applying swing (quantize swing) with Push 3.
By this i mean: imagine i have 16th notes, and i apply 33% swing with Push.
If i then create another set of 16th notes, and apply 33% swing with your device, it doesn't match up. Not even close. The notes swung with your device are waaaaay more swung.
If you don't have a Push, i'm happy to help you trouble shoot and find work out how to make the two different methods match up.

Sorry, just to add, maybe you could fix the above by putting a "Push compatability" button on the device, so that people can choose whether it matches Push or not. Because i'm sure there's a reason you calibrated it like you did......but the Push compatability would also be very nice.

Hey MrD! Thank you for the kind words!
I just double-checked, and you actually can type parameter values—just click anywhere on the dial once and start typing.
Also, thank you for pointing out the difference with Push! I wasn’t aware that it measures/applies "Swing Percentage" differently. I’ll definitely be looking into it.
If you’d like, feel free to shoot me an email—I might be able to put together a "Push-equivalent" version for you, even if the feature doesn’t end up making it into the official version!
Cheers!
