Remote Pitch by KILLIHU
MIDI TRANSPOSITION BY GROUPS
This plugin is a modification of the Master Pitch plugin requested by a Reddit user, to have different transposition groups. The plugin sends MIDI transpose information when it is set to Sender mode, and receives it when it is set to Receiver mode. Transpose information is sent / received between plugins that have the same ID. A maximum of 64 IDs can be set, allowing to have 64 different transpose groups. Every time a plugin is set to Receive, it receives the transpose information automatically. But when the ID of a plugin set in Sender is changed, the transpose information is not sent until the controls are changed or the RESEND button is pressed. This plugin is free. Consider making a contribution if it is useful for you.Remote Pitch by KILLIHU

Frequently Asked Questions
Remote Pitch allows you to send MIDI transposition information from one instance of the plugin to multiple others across your Live set. One instance is set as the Sender and any number of others set as Receivers will follow its transposition automatically.
Each instance of the plugin is assigned an ID number, and transpose information is only shared between plugins sharing the same ID. You can have up to 64 unique IDs, meaning up to 64 independent transposition groups running simultaneously in a single session.
A plugin set to Sender mode broadcasts the transposition value to all matching-ID Receivers in your set. Plugins set to Receiver mode listen passively and update their transposition whenever the Sender changes.
If you change the ID of a Sender instance, the transposition data is not broadcast automatically until you either adjust one of the controls or press the RESEND button. This just forces the Sender to push the current transposition value out to all matching Receivers immediately.
Remote Pitch is a Max for Live device, so you will need Ableton Live Suite or a copy of Live Standard with a Max for Live licence, along with Max for Live installed and active.
Drop the device onto any MIDI track, set one instance to Sender mode and place additional instances on whichever tracks you want to control, setting them all to Receiver mode with matching IDs. Any transposition you dial in on the Sender will be mirrored across all corresponding Receivers instantly.
It is particularly handy for live performance or complex arrangements where you need to transpose multiple instruments or synths simultaneously without automating each track individually. It is equally useful in the studio for quickly exploring key changes across grouped elements of a mix.

Our Products are generally provided as Zip file downloads which in all cases will need to be extracted and saved to your hard drive prior to installation. Details on the different file type provided and what to do with them are below.
.alp Files – These are Ableton Live Packs and will either install directly into the Packs Section of the browser of Ableton Live or ask you to save them to your hard drive. For packs that install to the library, when you double click on them you will see a pop up window asking you to confirm that installation is ok as the files are described as “Legacy”. This is fine and you are ok to proceed, the packs are created using the format for an earlier version of Live and so remain compatible with the current version.
.amxd files – These are individual MaxforLive Devices and can be stored anywhere on your hard drive. We’d advise creating a folder for them and then adding that folder as a location within the Places section of Lives Browser.
