Hi out there,
does anyone know any tricks to getting Lemur to make program or bank changes in Ableton, particularly to Papen's Predator or Sub boom Bass? I cannot seem to get it to work...
Thanks for your help

Also, most VST synths don't react particularly well to program change messages being fired at them with great speed so instead of automatically send the Prog Change message every time the knob is moved, we will still be needing a "send" button.
Doesn't the Knob object now have a z parameter? (the manual doesn't show it, but looking through the .jzml of an old script I see a z for knob)
If so, use an On Expression script when z goes from 1 to 0 to trigger the send back. I do this for faders (especially when sending Program Change commands) because the older synths can't cope with a fast stream of program changes. I display the potential new value in Lemur, but only send when the finger is lifted up.
