More Simpler Pro - Sampler + Buffer Manager for Ableton Live
More Simpler Pro is an improved and updated adaption of the M4L Device "More Simpler" which is an simplified version of Live's Simpler.
Now with the possibility to sync the audio file's tempo with your Live Set, it comes with send-receive compatibility to load samples directly into the More Simpler's buffer.
In combination with my device "Buffer Manager" (which is included in this package) you can swap samples or whole sample folders instantly via MIDI or key control while playing live. In my opinion a basic feature which should be integrated in Live's Sampler and Drum Rack by default...
MAIN FEATURES:
- Polyphonic sampler instrument with time-stretching
- File manager to quick load samples into the sampler's buffer
- Up to 10 preset slots to save and load your own sample folders
- Mappable controls to swap samples or folders while playing
- Random file selection and sync load functionality
- Device skin color options to stay visually relaxed
UPDATE 4.5 (Note: demo videos below show version 1.0):
- Presets are now integrated into the sampler (file manager) which is much more convenient (resizable window), you can still use "Buffer Manager" if you want
- Presets are now unique for every instance and saved in the Live Project (you can save up to 75 x 8 unique folders and settings per instance) -> Click on the long "+" switch on the far left to open the preset menu
- Added preset morpher to interpolate between settings and sample folders
- Added optional touch screen / mouse MIDI keyboard + external window (resizable)
- Added window menu track info (auto-updated) for MIDI keyboard and file manager window
- Added simple panning control
- Added randomizer for start / end, ADSR and pitch / time settings + global randomizer
- Minor bug fixes, GUI optimisations, color theme fixes and beautifications
Criticism, bug reports, complaints, suggestions, tips, questions or whatever are always welcome!

QUICK START:
- Load "More Simple Pro" into a MIDI track.
- Load "Buffer Manager" into the same track.
- Drop your sample folder to the Buffer Manager's drop zone.
- Select one of the 10 preset slots, enter a name, save the slot via Shift + mouse click.
-
Important: Press "Save all Slots". This saves the folders path as preset file or overwrites an existing one. The preset will loaded automatically when the device is loaded.
Happy sampling!
