scriptting talk back info in Live

Post by usablind »

So i have built a live template that allows me to launch cue points from songs. My question is with scripting could a create talk back info similar to the Launch Pad or APC were the clips light up when they are load with audio/MIDI? Also would it be possible to make that talk back info reference the color of the clips loaded? I know little about scripting and am looking for a few pointers on how to accomplish this and if it is possible?
Thanks

You would need to create your own Midi remote scripts for Ableton Live and assign specific CC controllers to specific info-actions.

More info: http://remotescripts.blogspot.gr/

I guess another way would be to "trick" Ableton into thinking the Lemur is actually an APC/Launchpad but that will require complete knowledge of how these devices are configured (CC assignments, Notes on-offs, midi channels) and your Lemur project to have exact same configurations-CC assignments-notesON-off inside your Lemur project.
Then all you have to do is use the built-in midi remote scripts of Ableton Live
