Audio Frame Macro / MIDI Frame Macro

What is this?

A series of Max fro Live devices to modulate parameters in integer values and PAL/NTSC like interlace frame rates. Deeply influenced by tracker software and chiptune plugins.

Features

• Designed to modulate integer parameters such as semitone, octave, and waveform types in instrument devices or plugins.
• Also able to modulate float-value parameters by scaled values.
• 4 parameters can be mapped to individual modulations, which sync to the master clock of the device.

Parameters

• ClockMode Switches the clock rate in Hz or note-related.
• ClockFrequency Adjusts the clock frequency in Hz.
  Actual speed is doubled to simulate interlaced frames. 29.97Hz: NTSC, 25Hz: PAL.
• CLockRate Adjusts the clock rate with note-related speed.
• ParameterSelector (below Clock): Switches from 4 individual parameter macros.
• Resync (Audio Frame Macro only) When pressed, reset all current position of parameter macros to sync again.
  Pressing the button always makes an undo history of Live.
  TIP: Setting automation to Resync makes attack effect without MIDI input.
  

belows are included in each individual parameter macro.

• Loop Selector (above sliders): Adjusts the loop position.
• Sliders Adjust each modulation value per frame.
• Values (below sliders): Indicate each modulation value. Able to adjust and be automated.
  The value can exceed Input Range, but the actual modulation value does not.
• Cycle / Step Adjusts the number of cycles needed to proceed with each steps. Larger steps make slower progress.
• Input Range: Adjusts the minimum/maximum value of each sliders.
• Scale When enabled, the device scales modulation value to the range of modulated parameters. Suitable for parameters in float.
• Fit When pressed, fits the values of Input Range to the range of modulated parameter. Suitable for parameters in integer. Available only when the parameter for modulation is mapped.
• 0-7F When pressed, sets input range to [0, 127 (0x7F)]. Unavailable when the parameter without number is mapped. (on/off or enumerations)
• +/- When pressed, sets input range to [-64, 63]. Suitable for bipolar parameters such as pan. Unavailable when the parameter without number is mapped. (on/off or enumerations)
• Map When pressed, activates mapping mode. You can click a mappable parameter in Live to select as the mapped parameter to modulate. The mapped parameter name is displayed in right of Unmap button (x).
• Unmap (x) When pressed, cancel the mapping of parameter.
