I’ve been working about this for some time… why are there never any presets coming with the mac AU version?
Looks like this is Ableton’s issue… works fine in Reaper…
“MIDI automation issue in some hosts fixed (UI does not move knobs).”
Wish they could fix this with the other synths as well. I love using them but it’s difficult to program when you have no visual feedback.
