can you sequence filter cutoff for plugin synths?

[elastic]

Is it possible to have the sequence playing a plugin, AND sequence the filter cutoff for that same synth?

If so, how is this done?

Thanks

Search/read the Ableton manual... (I don't know if Ableton has that functionality, I use Cubase and FL Studio)

The sequencer sends Midi notes (or CV/Gate), nothing else - so why would it be in the Beatstep Manual how anyone would convert these notes once they have left the Beatstep?

i mean a description or tutorial of how to sequence a filter cut off on a plugin synth in ableton

Maybe Ableton can't by itself? (without an external aid, like pizzmidi)
Also, there's so many different plugins, platforms, and DAWs - it would require a lot of tutorials. And that's for a purpose that not everybody needs.

it just seems crazy to make a sequencer that can't sequence notes AND filter cutoff at the same time

[teceem]

Yeah, and crazy that it doesn't contain a polyphonic analogue synth either.
Beatstep is what it is, you bought what was advertised. Don't want to try my Pizzmidi advise? Then maybe you're just trolling...

i will have a look at pizza midi.

but its almost unheard of to have a sequencer that can't sequence synth parameters and note date on the same synth.

[teceem]

Unheard of? Name 1 hardware step sequencer that has all the Beatstep features + modulation sequencing (the thing you want), for the same price or less?

[elastic]

im not on about all the other features, I'm on about the sequence part of it.

[teceem]

I can do it on my SE Boomstar, without any software at all.
- Midi output for notes
- CV output to CV filter input on the Boomstar

Yep, just talking about the sequencer... name one alternative?

[elastic]

ah yes but can you do it on a plugin in a daw with beatstep?

[teceem]

Yes, with the pizzmidi plugin.
Or just any synth plugin that has note/keyboard follow as a modulation source in its modulation matrix.
