Hello, First, thank you for that wonderful program, community and way of sharing informations. I love Ableton, with ClyphX scripts, but I really miss something important : the ability to assign parameters to a macro, and to keep control on those parameters, even with the ability to assign them to other macros. It would be a plus to assign those parameters in a relative way, like in Bitwig, Kontakt, or like morph groups in the Nord G2. And, the ability to add memory of that macro would also be nice. Could a script be useful to find a transformation of Ableton's behavior?
Since the automation sends values to parameters, wouldn't it be possible to make a sort of instant automation. Or a dummy clip that wouldn't be played in time with the sequencer. It could be read dynamically, I mean it would be controlled by a knob, from its beginning till its end, without any timing, just the position of the knob. At 0, it would be at its beginning, at 127, at its end, and between those values, it would be in a relative position... forward or backward, exactly how we tweak the knob. It would leave free the parameters when we don't move the knob. But maybe this is really impossible with a script...
Thank you for your opinion

Welcome to the forum. On the first point, that wouldn't be possible as Live marks macro-mapped parameters as disabled and doesn't allow them to be controlled from scripts. On the second point, the data in a clip has no effect on anything unless the clip is actually playing. However, it might be possible to create a script that could create automation envelopes for macro-mapped parameters and could be controlled via MIDI. I'll keep that in mind for future products/updates.
