Would it be possible to add two tempo buttons (+ and -) to the existing AbleSet M4L device, making them MIDI mappable? This would allow increasing or decreasing the BPM on the fly.
I know there are other M4L devices that do this, but integrating it into AbleSet would make a lot of sense in terms of flexibility, just like the group mixer was integrated.
Do you think this would be feasible? Curious to hear your thoughts!
I’m not sure if AbleSet would be able to re-enable the tempo automation programmatically, so once the tempo is overridden, it would stay that way until you manually re-enable the tempo automation in Live. Would that be a deal breaker?
Thanks, Leo! Yes, I completely understand that AbleSet might not be able to automatically re-enable tempo automation in Live. In some songs, I have a Tempo Track set as Lead—specifically, the ones with tempo variations—so I wouldn’t expect AbleSet to handle that in those cases. Not a deal-breaker at all.
I was thinking of this feature more for songs with a fixed BPM, I think it would be an amazing addition to the AbleSet M4L device.
