Hi guys. My name is Josh, I just bought myself an iPad pretty much just to use lemur on Ableton Live with livecontrol 2 and had an idea for a module.
My idea is similar to the page on livecontrol where you can choose the root note and scale then it only shows the correct notes in that key. except that you have multiple scales all on one page. I'm thinking of 4 which can be individually set with 2 octaves for each set.
Now I can place all the parts in the relevant place one screen no problems, but the programming side I'm a little new to.
I'm thinking that when you hit the root note it would set the first note in the row to that root note. then the scale would then change all others in relation to the state of the root note. Also possibly an octave+ and octave- option would be ideal to add too.
If anyone could give me some pointers or advised how long this would take to learn/create that would be amazing. I've popped a quick mock up as an attachment.
Cheers,
Josh

Re: Multi scale module
So I've created a template of all the pads and menu boxes and where they fit best. I have attached this.
Can anyone give me pointers of how to go about scripting this as i have no knowledge at all of scripting.
I want it to essentially be a copy of the "play" page on live control 2. but multiplied 5 times so 5 different scales on one page.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks
Josh

Re: Multi scale module
Hey Josh,
building a keyboard which dynamically changes the pitches is a bit work... (maybe therefore till now nobody answered like "ok, I made that quickly for you") But it for sure can all be done! At least you have to define a pitch vector that you send through a Custom Midi (note on AND a second for note off). I once made a dynamic keyboard, maybe diggin your nose deep into the scripting can help you: http://liine.net/en/community/user-library/view/85/
All the best

Re: Multi scale module
...hey, I found some time and made Key 1 functions of your module working for octave, key and scale....
also added Keyvelocity, but no Midichannel selection yet (it sends on 1, Miditarget 0)
Think you can copy the functionality to the others 4 Keyboards and learn how it is scripted by that way.
The pitch is like: Key1.selection+(Oct1.selection*12)+{scale, scale+12}
"Key1.selection" is drop down menu C.....
"(Oct1.selection*12)" is another drop down
{scale, scale+12} reflects 2 times scale, which is defined in a script
It works well so far... but it does not fit number of pads to tones within scale.
hm....some "setattribute" script might do that, but no time for this now.
Hope this gives you a good start for creating your module
keep progress posted

if (Menu6.selection==0) scale={0, 2, 4, 5, 7, 9, 11};
if (Menu6.selection==1) scale={0, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11};

if (Menu6.selection==3) scale={0, 3, 5, 7, 10};

Re: Multi scale module
ok, added dynamic pad change to scale
code is
but realized that pads maximum column is 16...so not working with cromatic scale (would need 24 for 2 octaves)
cheers
mat
code is
Code: Select all
decl val;
val=sizeof(scale)*2;
setattribute (Pads1, 'column', val);
cheers
