Meta Devices
Meta Devices are effects that modulate or control other device parameters instead of manipulating audio. They can even be linked between different tracks, making for complex and powerful routing possibilities.
Common usages for Meta Devices are applying modulations with the *LFO Device or *Signal Follower Device, controlling plugin instrument automation via the *Automation Device, or sending MIDI to plugins using the *MIDI Control Device. There are also devices which can use various real-time inputs (notes, velocity, audio output etc.) to guide their behaviour, such as the *Key-Tracking Device or *Velocity Device. Finally, there are devices which can also be used to route and control other meta or audio effect parameters via the *XY Pad and *Hydra.
The devices are arranged into the following categories:
- Automation: (automate plugin or MIDI instruments)
- Modulation: (automate parameters by reacting to various inputs such as notes, velocity, audio output etc.)
