JL Curve Function Macro
JL Curve Function Macro can be thought of as a 'hacked' Ableton Macro
This M4L device works a lot like the macros in Live itself. You can map it to any parameter, adjust the minimum and maximum range, un-map it and control it. The biggest difference being that this macro contains a curve editor for modifying the behavior of your mapped macro. In other words, you decide how the macro works and changes things as it turns from left to right. No more being bound to the laws of Live and staying linear! Curves, multipoint edits and more ideas await.
I've included comments to try and make things as clear as possible for anyone who wishes to use or understand mapping with M4L
This is a variation of the JL Basic MAP Button in my series of tutorials and establishing a connection between Max and Live so you can focus on testing your ideas in live without getting caught up in a major detour.
- User controlled macro capable of automations in Live
- Minimum and maximum transformations on the range of the parameter by % much like how the mapping system works within Ableton macros
- Un-map button for easy un-mapping
- This patch will know not to map to itself to prevent errors as well as immediately snap parameters when mapped to them
- Displays selected parameter
- Snaps parameter to new value when function is edited
-Multipoint curve editor for macro behavior

UPDATE V1.2.1: Updated so that all macros as well as min and max parameters for each macro are available in Live's clip modulation destinations
UPDATE V1.3.1: Fixed a bug where the mapping would break when the device is moved in a Live set. Now the parameter id will be remembered by the device wherever it is moved
UPDATE V1.4.1: Fixed a bug where the when mapping the dials to a macro in a Live rack, the parameter would only make 0. or 1. available. Now modulation modes are bipolar instead of absolute

This device works in Live 9, 10 or 11, Standard (with Max For Live) or Suite.
