This is very handy thank you. One very minor issue to note. On my system Win 7 32bit When I click on the little button on the bottom left the window that open with all the links does not display the links correctly. The font displays all weird symbols?
Thanks for the feedback, thats very strange i will look into it!
One problem is that the device fills the undo/redo buffer so it makes it impossible for me to actually undo my edits elsewhere in ableton. Is there a way to fix this or is that just a limitation of this device? Thank you, by the way. It works great besides this bug.
Hey Harris, i have discovered a solution to solve the undo history problem! Stay tuned.
great idea for a device.. thanks!
Thanks! I have some cool features I'm adding for the next update!
Clearly I'm the one out of the loop if ableton is going to feature this on their blog! Could someone explain to me, step by step example to a dunce ("add second midi track, monitor set to in, latch Automation recorder while it's blinking to the first parameter you assign, drag/paste resulting automation onto other midi parameters" etc.) of how to use this device-I seriously have no clue.

I've looked through the screen shot. Couldn't even guess. I've tried every permutation of automation recording I know to see a clip level envelope for this device. Other than the undefined number box on the bottom which doesn't appear to record to anything but rather will take clip envelope changes-which seemingly do nothing to any parameter. I'm talking myself in circles.

If this is an oscillator that can be manually over-ridden with automation at any point without needing to be placed in take-over mode first, then I'm on board!
Much Love
Braduro, this devices simply draws a automation envelope in ableton that can be pasted to other parameters. I will create a video with instructions on how to use it! Stay tuned.
Keep in mind, if you open this device in the max editor, it will stop working! This is not a security feature, it has to do with the dynamic nature of parameter visibility setting, will fix this shortly.
Looking forward to the video! But that's my very source of confusion. What parameter is it recording? I get "anything." But where is it coming from? How/where do I confirm there's a source? To which track/clip? Where do you see the automation? What do you assign?
:)BD
Also, might be nice if all it's doing is creating automation curves to have a drag/drop or copy option straight from the output window, the way some sequencers do or the Looper device...Think that would be possible?
Take a look at this video http://krypt1kny.tumblr.com. This is a preview of the next version, but has similar functionality ( but you can map this one ). It records a envelope that does not control anything. simply a "dummy" envelope. You can then copy the envelope and paste it onto any parameter you want to control.

Cheers to ya!
Any ETA for the version with mapping ability? I'm pretty keen for that.

DJTitan The next version with mapping will be out sometime in the next 2 weeks as time permits. Stay tuned!

Ok, it was 10 years ago but a video for tutorial about the copy paste thing would still be amazing ^^"
thanks anyway
