Control any Serum instance in Ableton Live from your MIDI Fighter Twister

The Serumify script enables you to use your Midi Fighter Twister to control the instance of Serum which is in the currently selected track.

Select a track in your Ableton Live session and your MIDI controller’s encoders will automatically map to the parameters of Serum on that track!
Then if you change the selected track, your MIDI controller will instantly update to control Serum on this new track.

There’s no need to map and re-map your MIDI controls each time you want to control a different instance of Serum in your project,
all you need to do is select the new track and you’ll have instant control of the instance of Serum on that track.

Plus! each time you start a new project, you don’t need to waste time setting up your mappings, Your Twister will be instantly ready!

How To Control Serum Parameters

After enabling Serumify in your Ableton Live settings,

Add Serum into a track in your Ableton Live project.
Use the configure tab to expose the Serum parameters which you want to control (up to 128 parameters).
Sort them into the order which you want to control them on your MIDI Fighter Twister.

The inputs on your MIDI controller will automatically update to the same order which you have set in the configure section.

You can change the exposed parameters at any time and your Midi Fighter Twister will instantly update to match them.

Control 128 Serum parameters

Serumify gives you the ability to control up to 128 parameters per Serum instance with just 1 set of 16 encoders on your MIDI controller.
The parameters are split across 8 virtual pages on the Twister, which you can easily switch between with a quick button press.

If you have more than 16 exposed parameters, Serumify will automatically split them into multiple virtual pages. You can then switch between each page with a button press on the Twister.

Control upto 128 exposed Serum parameters, across 8 virtual pages

With Serumify, you can control Serum when it is located in any of the following locations in a track’s device chain:

Directly in the device chain
Inside an instrument rack
Inside an instrument rack’s selected device chain

LED Feedback

The LEDs on your MIDI Fighter Twister update to match the parameters on each instance Serum, this avoids any jumps in parameter values when you begin turning the encoders. This also gives you the essential visual feedback that you need when controlling multiple instances of Serum.

Selected Parameter Control

You can also select a parameter in the Serum GUI and control it from your Twister!
Simply select the device, open Serum, then click any parameter and you can control it using the first encoder on your Twister.
(Note: for this to work, remove any exposed parameters from the device first, or you will be controlling whatever is set in there!).

Only 1 MIDI Fighter Twister Page Needed

Serumify only uses one bank of MIDI messages on your MIDI Fighter Twister.
This means that all other firmware based banks on your Twister remain free to map using Ableton Live’s built-in MIDI mapping mode.

- Inside the unzipped folder you will see a version folders such as ‘v1.0’, open the latest folder, then the version of Ableton Live which you are using.(or the closest one to it i.e. if you’re using Live 12.0.25, open Ableton Live 12.0).
- In here you will see the script folder i.e. ‘serumify___mf_twister’. This is the folder which you will install into Ableton Live shortly.

There are 2 ways to install the Serumify script into Ableton Live which we have detailed below. We also have video tutorial here: https://youtu.be/r9xUD-tPLUg?si=IehmTswqGd-QBAJ_

2a. Script Installation Method 1

Manually create a folder called “Remote Scripts” within your Ableton Live User Library.
The default User Library locations are:
Windows: Users[username]DocumentsAbletonUser Library
Mac: Macintosh HD/Users/[username]/Music/Ableton/User Library
Note: the above ‘User Library’ locations are automatically set by Ableton Live. If you have changed this, then you will need to create the ‘Remote Scripts’ folder at the new location which you have changed it to.
You can check the location in Ableton Live > Settings(Preferences) > Library > Location of User Library…

Place the ‘serumify___mf_twister’ folder and its contents into your newly created “Remote Scripts” folder:

In Ableton Live’s browser, you will then see the script in your User Library.

2b. Script Installation Method 2

Alternatively, if method 1 doesn’t work, you can place the ‘serumify___mf_twister’ folder and its contents here:
Windows: ProgramDataAbletonLive x.xResourcesMIDI Remote Scripts
