The HoooooootKey hold button 1.0 by an21 is a transformative MIDI tool for Ableton Live users seeking to expand their creative workflow by mapping or triggering a MIDI note upon the "note off" of a specified target note. With real-time monitoring, users can select their target note and set a time threshold that, once exceeded by the sustain duration, activates the trigger, confirming the action with an LED indicator. This device offers customizable settings in "Pitch" and "Vel" to configure the note and velocity generated by the trigger. By setting the velocity to zero, users can disable note generation entirely to focus on mapping functions. Perfect for innovative uses like triggering octave changes with gamepads or resetting loopers with a long press, HoooooootKey promises a more personalized approach to performance and production. While currently standalone, there’s an anticipated upgrade featuring dual thresholds for even more nuanced control. Designed for Ableton Live 11.3.35 with Max 8.5.8, this device encourages musical exploration with easy adaptation to individual needs.
