Minor Update 3.23.2021 Ableton
Added definitions to Innovator’s overlay. You can use the note/CC assignments used in the Music Production overlay for your Innovator’s to control Sends A&B, Macros, Crossfader, and transport. Bitwig
Added a pitchbend range option to the Morph script I/O control panel so you can select 24 or 48. Useful when using the new “Jump” pitch bend mode.
Version 1.2
You can get it from our store or from our github release page.
For Ableton Live:
Fixed a bug in shifted mode that would prevent channel send assignment from working correctly.
The overlay maps are channelized so you can dedicate an overlay to a particular track.
Map files have been re-programmed with MIDI XYZ pads so X=bend, Y=mod wheel, Z=channel pressure. This way you can do pseudo MPE stuff easily with Wavetable and Sampler’s MIDI modulation matrix. We’ve also made a “No Overlay” map so you can mess around with multi-touch ideas.
Map files have been updated, so to take best advantage of the XYZ possibilities, you’ll need to flash the Morph with new maps and install these new script files.
For Bitwig Studio:
Minor changes. We added the Innovator Overlay as an option for exclusive ports. We’ve also added a setting to the I/O panel to enable/disable on-screen notifications. We also implemented functional “User Mode” for being able to assign controls from the Innovator’s and Music Production overlays by MIDI Learn. As always, use the “with Scripts” installer unless you have Bitwig 3.2
Thanks for the updates. I recently migrated to Ubuntu, is it possible to install the updated Bitwig Studio Script under Linux? Could you point me to the right resource?
Is this after running the installer that you have 2 extensions? I’m guessing so. The installer “with scripts” puts the new scripts in ~/Documents/Bitwig Studio/Controller Scripts/, so the “old” one is still in the application. These new scripts will be built in to Bitwig starting at 3.2 beta 4.
As for which one to choose, I’m pretty sure it’s the top one and will auto select. You can go into ~/Documents/Bitwig Studio/Controller Scripts/SenselMorphand rename the file MorphMPE.control to something like MorphMPE_12.control to make it easier to select and be certain.
You can visit our github page and download the repo.
Navigate to sensel-controller-scripts/Bitwig/ in the repo and put SenselMorph folder in ~/Documents/Bitwig Studio/Controller Scripts/.
It pains me to say this, but you’ll need to use a Mac or Windows machine to program your Morph using the SenselApp with the correct overlay maps so it works as advertised. The overlay maps are in the repo in the sensel-controller-scripts/Bitwig/Overlays directory.
I agree and would hope a .deb installer could be created or at least an install script. I could created one and submit it.
I was able to install the Windows version using WINE with the command
wine SenselMorph_Bitwig_Setup_With_Scripts.exe
It creates two folders in /home/user/Documents
/home/user/Documents/Bitwig Studio
and
/home/user/Documents/Sensel Morph
Also, I am using Debian Buster 10.3 and the Sensel App built for Debian loads perfectly. I just ordered the Sensel Morph so haven’t tested it out but all indications are that it should work.
Thanks for your answer. I installed a Windows 10 version with Virtualbox on my Ubuntu laptop. Unfortunately the Sensel App starts but freezes to a “all grey/black” stage and doesn’t allow me to import maps … I’ll take a screenshot and post it here.
Will the overlay import work on the Linux version soon or should I look now for another machine to install the overlays?
Thanks for your answer and well noted for Unity and VMs, that’s good to know in general
I managed to import the appropriate maps with a Macbook Air. Regarding the Linux Sensel App, here is what Peter told me earlier in the thread:

I tried to do so anyway with the Linux version but it didn’t work correctly indeed. I could look for the appropriate map in the “Import Map” menu, but nothing happened when I clicked on “OK” (or “Import”, not sure about the exact label of the button!).
Not sure if there was something wrong on my side or if the Linux app doesn’t actually do the job, but I thought it was worth mentioning it!
New to the Sensel Morph group (just received mine yesterday), I’m looking for this option you mentioned above to turn off the pretty annoying popups sensel morphs shows in bitwig (i’ve confirmed its the sensel morph as the popups don’t come up when I unplug the sensel morph and return whenever it is on). The popups show every time I select a track (it says “selected track: (insert track name) : drum offset : scale offset”
I am unable to find how to do what your descibing in this script update. Im using Bitwig Studio 3.3 any ideas where I can find this option to disable on-screen notifications. I look in the bitwig settings and looked in the sensel morph app and can’t find this i/o panel you are referring to here. I’m using the sensel morph MPE script that automatically is setup in bitwig whenever you have the sensel morph plugged in. Do I need to download a different extension/script to turn off these popups?
Actually i’ve resolved this issue I mentioned above and found where you are referring to in the update notes for this post Peter. for anyone else who has a similar issue and finds this in the forum search, notifications are on by default with sensel morph, and you have to go to the Studio I/O in Bitwig (not in the bitwig settings or the sensel morph settings which is where I was looking intensely), to turn them off. I tried to attach an image below so you can see where the “notifications” settings is found in bitwig. Just flip that to off and problem solved.
… I’ll take a screenshot and post it here.
