sending info from daw to lcd/monitor(scripting god needed)

Post by diasdelphx »

hello, Im wondering if and how it is possible to send information about what is being controlled in ableton live back to the lemur, either to the lcd or monitor object.
for example if I map a knob or fader to a filter frequency, I'd like it to automatically 'label' the lemur object frequency, then if I delete that mapping and assign the same knob or fader to a glide on a synth, I'd like it to automatically correspond to that. is this possible?

thank you

Sounds like you need a scripting god, you would need to find the data being sent from DAW and make a script that tells the objects to respond to those addressed values and auto labeling is getting pretty deep into the coding from the DAW, however it has to be possible, because if the TouchOSC template for controlling Ableton Live,"Live Control" can do it Lemur should be able to also
Moog LittlePhatty Stage2, Novation Ultranova, Live8 suite, NI Massive, NI FM8, Max/Msp, LaunchPad, APC-40, and a lot more

I gotcha, thank you for the response, I guess my question still stands, the capability to do this seems like it would be a very helpful and cool thing to do, so are there any 'scripting gods' who feel like helping me out?

When searching for deeper midi parsing for a recent project I found "final-live.jzml". It is deep.

Have a look at the function "receiveClipData(MIDI_ARGS)" there and others.

It will show you a way of decoding from Live.

The LCD is for Mackie Control Unit (MCU) information, I'm not sure how that would apply to your intended ideas.. but my guess is
that maybe leave MCU out for now because it would take up a channel or more only to do its thing.

cheers~

I'm starting to think this is way too in depth for me to program, but if anyone can figure this out I'm sure I won't be the only person to use it.
