Control your Neural DSP Nano Cortex presets directly from Ableton Live with this comprehensive Max for Live pack. The Nano Cortex Preset Changes via Ableton Live pack includes two specialized devices designed for seamless preset automation and MIDI control during live performances.
What’s Included in the Pack
This pack includes two Max for Live devices for complete Nano Cortex preset control:
Nano Cortex Preset Selection: Features a menu displaying preset names with custom naming support. Navigate presets effortlessly without relying on your mobile app, ensuring you always know which effect you’re selecting.
Nano Cortex Preset Automation: Map MIDI controllers (buttons, stomps, or pedals) to trigger preset changes via MIDI Notes, MIDI CC, or Program Changes. Create and recall multiple preset configurations to switch between different controller setups instantly.
Key Benefits for Live Performance
Automate Nano Cortex Preset Changes via Ableton Live to ensure the right effects load automatically during performances. No more manual preset switching between songs or sections—your presets change precisely when needed.
The devices eliminate the need to reorganize presets inside your Nano Cortex or spend hours programming MIDI controllers. Instead, manage everything from Ableton Live with band-specific or project-specific preset controls that recall automatically.
Custom preset naming provides clear navigation directly in Ableton, while multiple MIDI controller presets let you adapt your setup for different projects without hardware reconfiguration.
Requirements and Compatibility
Max for Live is required to use these devices (included in Ableton Live SUITE or available as an add-on for Live Standard). The devices work seamlessly with Neural DSP Nano Cortex hardware and Ableton Live 10, 11, and 12.
