Mapulator

Mapulator

I am interested in your opinions on Mapulator :slight_smile:

What do you like ?
What dont you like ?
What sort of features would you like to see ?
Have you found a bug ?

On another note i now have a facebook page as of about 24 hours ago:

and im finally using my twitter page:
www.twitter.com/bento_san

For those wondering what Mapulator is check out this blog post:

love it

Glad you like it ! :slight_smile:

I’d love to see a text box that will show the X,Y value of the selected point and another one for the distance from anchor/angle of the curve, just to make fine tweaking more precise :slight_smile:

If you look at the top left of the graph when you have a point highlighted it shows up there.

As for the distance from the anchor, do you mean the angle/distance the bezier curve point is from the control point ?

i haven’t tried it yet but it looks like a very interesting idea… more midi tools are only a good thing :smiley: it works with any version of live? i only have a full version of live5 and the LE version of 8. only just really getting into live now - will upgrade to the full 8 if i like it tho (and can justify it)

Basically you need to running nearly the latest version of live, with nearly latest version of m4l installed (max 5) to get it to work. The learn feature is still pretty new to the API.

For anyone wondering Mapulator has earn’t $75 in donations from 4 donations, don’t really recommend doing a donation model to anyone! Still falling very short of the target to bet www.bentosan.net online again.

As far as the success of the patch however, everythings been really good and im super stoked !

It was picked up by Ableton and bloged/tweeted/facebooked to well over 200k people, create digital music also picked it up and slipped it into one of their articles.

There are now well over 1000 people using Mapulator :slight_smile:

Been pretty quiet lately doing hard work on Mapulator !
I have added sooooooooo many features added its crazy, cant wait to share all the hard work :slight_smile:

The patch is amazing, however I have had a difficult time saving settings as well, looking for 1.0.2 as I hear it is available,
but I cannot find it anywhere and no emails about update??

Please help me Bentosan you are my only hope

I really like mapulator, need to play around with it properly and will for sure donate - i am also planning to look mapulator and similar patches in a HCI paper i am writing focusing on live.

like weltraumpapst said - mail me on bento@djtechtools.com and ill send you out the latest version by hand.
I am working on getting the newsletter fixed and a new letter sent out to everyone to clear up the mistake - i am also looking into getting the required information so i can take over the newsletter myself. That means these issues will be delt with 100x more quickly in the future, at the moment i have to deal through other people to fix these sorts of things which is proving to not be a very effective method.

I’m pretty sure everything got screwed up in the server move, this caused a lot of issues with the distribution of Mapulator.

Like i said… if you dont have V1.02 then email me on bento@djtechtools.com and ill get it sorted out, or you can wait for the new newsletter which hopefully will get sorted out sometime in the next 48 hours.
