I do this by also mapping the on/off switch to the macro, and having the filter engaged from 1-127. I don't use an extra chain at all. Are there any CPU advantages to either way or is it basically personal preference?

[MubangaDNB]

You don't need two chains you can also (midi/macro) map the filters on/off button, value 1/127. It's a little bit easier especially when you're working with multiple effect on multiple macro's.

@TheeAldeen better said - different control

[TheeAldeen]

@AfroDjMac more or less control over the parameter

@QuietQuakePro great comment! please work on not bitching about a free video...sorry just a pet peeve of mine

[nicoluminous]

@AfroDjMac funny that was the first thing I thought!

[jazzperbeats]

awesome stuff thank you so much dude!

@4ndrww especially if running an older computer or higher track counts (stating the obvious)

[4ndrww]

there's certainly a cpu advantage to doing it the on/off to the same macro knob method..

..might make little difference when using the built in live devices as they are quite efficient

but throw on some big VSTs in your effects rack and whoa.. you're gonna want to turn them off when you're not using them :P

what is mapping?
