Launch ableton devices using lemur

Post by Oysters »

Is it possible to launch ableton devices (in a similar way push does) via ipad lemur? opening say a compressor on you current track with just a tap on the ipad would be great, no need to open up the side menu on live 9. I was thinking of grand plans of browser control via ipad, hoping i could keep the ableton on screen browser closed as much as possible, but i can't even get started!
any help would be appreciated!

They key functionality in what you are asking lies not in the actual controller (push) but rather the "midi remote scripts" that it is programmed to operate with....

Google "Ableton midi remote scripts" and you 'll get a bunch of results expalining how you can accomplish such things using python scripts - even with simple hardware controllers.

In fact Im surprised nobody has yet created a python-based (script based) step sequencer for Live in Lemur. It already exists for APC-40 and Launchpad and I hate having a grid 8x8 - Id prefer a Lemur 16x16 one.....Been trying to study a bit on those scripts in order to create one myself but its all gathering up to be too much for my busy head.
