I’d like to second this as something that would be a hugely impactful feature. I believe this has also been proposed in this earlier post.
The inability to bind the Arrange page is a shame, because the Arrange page is a seriously killer piece of UX and could be transformative to many live, collaborative, and improvisational setups if it wasn’t held back by the lack of a bind mode.
Yes, you can run multiple instances of Scaler with Live Sync, but this is a miserable process in many DAWs (particularly Ableton and it’s baffling double-track MIDI workflow). Managing and switching between VST/AU windows in every host is a slow, cumbersome, and often stutter-inducing process.
The sheer brilliance of the Arrange page has the opportunity to completely wipe away most need for Live sync and this multi-instance madness. The multi-midi output would allow a single Scaler instance to be a one-stop shop to interactively play a whole orchestra of instruments. This is a far, far better workflow than managing as many as dozens of individual Scaler instances.
If that a not a good enough argument, then the untapped potential of Scenes should make it one. Scenes (if we could properly bind them or switch them with midi input) could allow many instruments at once to modulate their motions / performances at the touch of a button. You can’t do that with Live Sync, you’ll have to open your many, many individual instances and change their motions in a tedious way that’s impossible to automate.
(As long as I’m on this, please don’t hide Arrange track midi channel assignment behind a menu. It’s a crucial piece of state and should be visible and modifiable on the track header.)
With all the sincerity in my heart, thank you for making Scaler. It is one of the most transformative, beautiful pieces of software I have ever come across. It excites me how invested the team is in building it out, and that I can be along for the ride.
