Live 8 Python Remote

[MrCorba]

After a long time I finally start to understand how python and remote scripts work. And here it is! Sure it's a lame name but I couldn't think of a better one It's based on LiveControl2 and the RemoteSl scripts.

For now it's just a simple mixer with working Track Name display. I remember a lot of people asking for this on the forum, so here it is! Just copy the folder to the remote script directory and select it in live. I start adding more things and I'll post some modules if people want to.

For now it only works with Live 8, but as soon as I'm in the mood(read: as soon as I've got money), I'll buy Live 9 and try to update the script to 9 as well.

I've added all my python scripts decompiled and added some comments so hopefully more people get inspired and together we can get all the knowledge about python.



Cheers!

It's been a while but here a small update on the python scripts. Now added device control support. Works with knobs and xy-pads and shows the name of the 8 selected parameters. Only thing not working yet is when you change the name of a macro control, you have to reselect the device, or assign a parameter. Also attached are the decompyled python scripts so everyone can see how it's done....

Hello MrCorba,

I am interested in making it work in Ableton Live 9. I've been having a look at your Lemur and Python code, but I am a bit lost with your Python scripts, I will need to try a bit deeper and see if I achieve something.
If you have some news, I would be pleased to know it. I have my own Python scripts and I would like also to control them with Lemur by using sysex (or maybe OSC) because I don't want to use standard MIDI messages.
I don't know how you get sysex from Ableton Live

Best regards

Ruben

The plan is to get Live9 in the next couple of weeks so then I can check to get the script working on Live9 and make some modifications.

To get more into scripting I used the LiveControl2 uncompyled files. If you want them I could upload them tomorrow. Then it's just a matter of a lot of trial and error and see what does what;)

Let me know

Thank you MrCorba

I uncompiled the LiveControl2 pyc's but it is a lot of stuff there...

I am trying with OSC but I will be following your work....

Best
