Ableton Forum

thanks, JuanSOLO.

No, I did not know that about the scenes - thanks! I think I've solved my problem with ClyphX (which is awesome, and the support is even better), but I'll keep this in mind.

Hi All:

Wondering if there's any way to lock specific clips in their slots, so that they can't be deleted during a Cmd+A/Delete.

I'm putting together a Set for live guitar performance, and so don't want to have to use a mouse to lasso & delete the clips I've created from one song before starting ...

Hey everybody - just came across Kapture & downloaded it. Very excited about the possibilities here.

However, I'm wondering if perhaps it doesn't do what I need it to do - hoping someone knows the answers to a few quick questions.

I have a very simple Live Set where I'd like to switch between ...

Hi synnack:

thanks so much for your patch. Sorry it's taken so long to get back to you, but I decided I'd press pause on my "observe states of looper devices in return tracks" project and try to get your patch to work for me....which it has!

Your patch is awesome - it'll be perfect for the ...

I've now spent several more hours with the Help materials, but I still can't figure out where/how this patch is getting the information on which tracks have loopers in them (again, my first goal is to be able to observe the state of a Looper inserted in a Return track).

Nor have I been able to ...

Hey synnack -

Thanks for letting me know about pasting code - I didn't know you could do that in this forum. Thanks also for your patch...but I couldn't get it to work, as you foresaw (Live 8.3, Max 5), but I really appreciate that you took the time to put it together!

However, in case anyone is ...

Yes I have, both within Live and just within Max. It doesn't appear to have any effect. I added a print object to the end of the chain, thinking that then I'd see some type of output in the Max window when I clicked on the path message box, but no dice. Turning the dial does print values in the Max ...

Wow - thanks again, S4racen!

Really, really appreciate your help on this. Here's what I've ended up with:

Again, though, I think there's something fundamental that I'm not getting here, as this doesn't seem to do anything either ...

Hi S4racen:

Thanks for all your help! This info (plus several hours of further googling and patch dissection) definitely got me a little closer to understanding what I need to do.

I'm still pretty far away, though. :D I built basically what I thought you were talking about in your post, but it ...

Hi S4racen, everyone else:

So I downloaded the trial version of M4L, and...it's a little overwhelming, as you might imagine.

I think I basically understand the overall concept, the 30,000' view, but I'm finding that I seem to lack the right nomenclature to even search forums or the Web for the ...

OK, good to know. Thanks y'all.

Apologies if this has been asked before, but I couldn't find any relevant search terms that brought anything up in the forums.

I'm building a Live Set for performance (i'm a singer/guitarist/keyboardist), and it would be REALLY great to be able to see the current state of each my two separate ...

I looked into this, and I don't think I can afford M4L right now.

Are there any other clever ways to handle what I'm looking for here?

Again, that's:

- large display showing which beat I'm currently on during a one-bar loop
- displays showing current status of delay FX (on/off)

Thanks!

Excellent - thanks, S4racen!

Hi:

Apologies up front if this is a stupid/obvious question; I have some experience with Live and mapping Live controls to control surfaces, but know nothing about Max.

I'm a guitar/piano-playing singer/songwriter trying to hack together a Live-based rig that allows me to loop guitar, vocals ...
