hello there,

just to share a phaser device I've made with several auto-filters in a rack

https://1drv.ms/u/s!Alg3dw6stWVL2Cnlskf5NKEb9Lpa?e=WfBYEH

I wasn't satisfied with the sound of Live's phaser (& the phaser plug-ins I've found), so I've made one with the auto-filter, as it has got big ...

thanks Patrick for the move, and no your device doesn't charge my cpu more
but it's less effective than the patch that I previously posted, e.g for a macro that is connected to several parameters, it'll shows all of them instantly, and so we see only the last one on the screen and not the macro's ...

oh thanks for the move,
& yes that was for midi controls (sorry for not being enough clear about my request)
so the selected_parameter is no the soluce here, as we can't select a parameter with the live API

I'll try to find a way to receive a message from the python script with the max device ...

I've found the grab_midi function
so I've make a try with it (and copy&paste from other's patches)

it looks like what I need, but there's some problems :
I don't need ...

Hi there,

I'm searching for a m4l device that pop up a window displaying parameter's value (& name), each time I turn a knob,
just for a few second and then auto-close

ex : " Filter Frequency 2.46 kHz "

I'm able to make it appear in the status bar with a python script, but that's too small, I ...

with the velocity midi effect, put the out high to 0 (the out low have to be on 0 too)

or with a midi fx rack, with the mute chain button, you can also make mute note in this way
and also the with the chain selector

HI FLypado, you're welcome, I'm glad to help on scripting!


1. Instead of 4 buttons to control up, down, left, right, do you think it's possible to use 2 knobs for the same effect ? One knob for left and right, another for up and down.


you can do that with a loop: just one right button that go ...

Hi Flypado,
I've tried to correct your script
first you have to call the device component (I'm not sure the SpecialDeviceComponent you use is in the framework, so maybe the classic one is enough
add thoses lines at the beginning

from _Framework.DeviceComponent import DeviceComponent

and for the ...

I'm trying to figure out how to provide LED feedback - I understand how my controller receives midi data for its LEDs, but I'm not so clear on how to integrate that in the python script, specifically when it comes to providing launchpad-style session clip status feedback.

I'm not sure to ...

sorry for the late answer, maybe useless but
just add those lines to your script and the session box will follow the selected scene


def _on_selected_scene_changed(self):
super(sim_ses, self)._on_selected_scene_changed()
i=list(self.song().scenes).index(self.song().view.selected_scene)
if i ...

update
4 modes, different display

look at the first post for download/deta

sorry for the misunderstanding(I'm bad in english)
it's another control surface selected in Live's midi preferences
use this one https://app.box.com/s/n3trkeb1ow9c88g9hnnuheparqxuhlyb
it uses cc 57-64
you can edit to use different cc or duplicate it to use more than 16 parameter

Do you mean with another control surface selected in Live's midi preferences or another script with the same control surface selected?

another script with the same control surface selected

it's not possible to control 16 parameters with just one script.
but you can make it with another one, with different cc's number

put some value here:
non playing clip slot:
self._stopped_value = 0
empty clip slots:
self._record_button_value = None
