I’ve updated the Multitouchpad controller for Max-for-Live.
It has two important new features:
- It doesn’t require the CNMAT OSC patches anymore (easier installation)
- It includes a new 6 pad controller for triggering drums, samples, loops, etc.
Each of the 6 pads can be assigned any MIDI note number, so it’s quite flexible. A fader for adjusting global velocity is also included, and it’s 4-voice capable (4-finger multitouch). Of course, It’s not going to replace an MPC, but it’s useful for layering down some quick drum loops in case you don’t have a “real” controller handy.
It still requires an unibody Macbook and Tongseng (opensource). I suggest you to read my original post for installation instructions.
Most importantly, it’s fun to use!
