| Description: | Quantized FX Switch is a small Max for Live utility for Ableton Live 12. It lets you turn another Ableton device on/off, solo tracks, or mute tracks in sync with Live’s musical grid, instead of switching immediately when you press a button. Honestly, it is kind of amazing that Ableton does not already have this by default. We can quantize clips, warping, automation, probably our life decisions at this point… but not a simple device on/off button, solo or mute? Anyway, here we are. It is especially useful for: - Beat Repeat - Echo - Reverb - DJ-style FX builds - Live performance racks - RMX-style transitions Instructions: - Put the M4L device on the track where you want to control FX, solo, or mute actions. - Once it is loaded, turn on the M4L device and press Live’s global Play button so the internal quantized timing starts running. - Press any button on the device and it will turn the selected target device on/off, mute, or solo in sync with the chosen quantization. - Device targets follow the original device order from when the M4L device was loaded/refreshed. - Be careful not to target this M4L device itself, because it will turn itself off. Yes, it can defeat itself. Very dramatic. - If the device order changes, or if you add a new device in between, press the “Refresh” button to update the targets. - Map these buttons to a MIDI controller and have fun 😉 Hope this helps someone out as much as it helped me! If this saved your build-up from falling apart, or from one badly timed Beat Repeat disaster you can buy me a coffee or leave a small donation. No pressure — the device will still quantize either way ☕😉 https://ko-fi.com/laihoz Let me know if it worked correctly and if there is anything you are missing 👍 |
