Device Overview
| Name/Version: | Mapulator 1.0.2 |  |
| Author: | BentoSan | |
| Description: | Mapulator allows any control in Ableton to be controlled by a knob in almost any way; controlling multiple parameters of an effect or synth, or even multiple parameters of a chain of synths and effects is a breeze. Mapulator enables the user to go beyond the limitations of mapping in Ableton live in a very simple and easy to use fashion. "You're probably familiar with changing control values in real time in Live, as well as sequencing them with envelopes and automation editing. Mapulator, a new free Max for Live device from DJ Tech Tools contributor BentoSan, is a hybrid of these two methods. Set a custom control mapping (similar to an envelope), then scrub back-and-forth through it with Mapulator's "Smart" control knob." - Ableton.com It can be used to control synths, an LFO style effect if you modulate the knob with automation, give your hardware a totally new level of control and generally take all your effects knobs to a totally new level of mapping. There is also a premium version of mapulator in the works so stay tuned ! What people are saying about Mapulator: Matt Moldover - Moldover.com - "This is great. I really like the layered interface." S4racen - isotonikstudios.com - "Awesome work mate, you've really brung it! ... a master example of what can be acheived in M4L." Peter Kirn - CreateDigitalMusic.com - "Not just a clever Max for Live hack" Total Harmonic Control - "Its rapidly becoming a staple in my studio!" Anshul Vishwakarma - "This is amazing. Exactly what I was looking for. I had always thought a non-linear MIDI control mapping tool would be a great addition to Ableton, and now we finally have it!" Reynaldo Ochoa - "Its just amazing!! a great workaround to automation curves in live" David De Garie-Lamanque - "You have just opened Pandora's Box for all Live Controllerists!!!! Thank you for this amazing device!" |

| Very cool device; just reporting in v 1.02 parameter names still do not save with my live sets. Thnx. |

| Such an ingenious, yet simple, little device. Well done - cheers! |
| Idea is good but this plug adds HUGE latency as other plugins using live.remote~ module. With a 5ms audio buffer you have 12ms delay on an envelope. The envelope sampling frequency is not smooth either. |
| How can I download version 1.02? I'm already signed up at DJTT but I can't get the link to work. It says I need to sign up but it won't let me use my email again? Re. the above comment: are parameter assignments be saved with Live sets now? |
| Took a while to get if working due to software versions. This is cool. Chain 8 of them to have 8 "blue-hand" super knobs. Everything just got a lot more complicated due to the range of assignable possibilities but thats fine by me. All hail Bento |

| @BentoSan Multiple users have reported that the download link for this device does not work, even after registering on your site. Please fix it or I will be forced to remove this device from the library. |
| THis is such a great app but it wont' save any settings anymore with the new ableton! Thank you so much! I'm highly dependent on this working again! Any Ideas when there'd be a new version? I'd even donate for it! |
| Same question as leanderr, this device is really powerfull and can't stay useless ! Bentosan, save us.. |
