Hi,

I'd love to be able to *both* map controls from my MIDI controller to Live the usual way *and* be able to access the incoming MIDI with the [midiin] object in a M4L device.

I have read the manual and it states that "MIDI remote control" takes the CC for itself and doesn't let it do other ...

Yes! Very annoying.

When I map a parameter to a macro control I sometimes get a 0.0 - 1.0 scale, no matter what the unit is of the control (dB, %, Hz, etc) OR I get the right units, but the MIN and MAX are always the same, or sometimes behave weirdly.

Ableton Live 12 Beta 12.1.5b3, Mac OS Sonoma ...

Yeah - i'd love to be able to map a button such that if I push it I can temporarily override the existing automation (potentially many different parameters at the same time), and then when I release it everything goes back to following the pre-existing envelope...

Drag.

FEATURE REQUEST!!!

A 4th option in the M4L inspector window:

(old) - Automated and Stored
(old) - Stored Only
(old) - Hidden
(new!) - Visible but No Undo

I’ve been reading about this and found posts like this one:

I have what I *think* is a different problem – please correct me if I’m wrong!

I want:

– a M4L device with a visible live.numbox called "the_num ...

Ok, mea culpa: it was a very small syntax error in my js code that I just wasn't seeing at the time, breaking the program and the object. Totally my fault, I'm glad to say!

cheers,

I have a js object in a M4L device which is *had* 4 outlets until I started working on it – now it has only 1.

The code still specifies 4 outlets with "outlets = 4;" up at the top, but three of them have just gone missing.

I’ve tried quitting-and-restarting a couple of times, I've verified that ...

Ah-ha! I found out what was wrong:

I was using the [adstatus] object to get the sampling rate and feed it to my [js] object, so that it could convert from raw samples to milliseconds.

The [adstatus] object doesn't work when it's inside a M4L device, it seems, so my [start time, end time] indeces ...

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion, but it hasn't worked in my case.

I should've been more detailed in my first post: I can get *some* behavior out of my js object, just not all:

- I *can* set up a button to trigger output from my [js] object of how many index points are stored in an internal array ...

M4L device with:

- a buffer~ object
- indexed playback of the buffer~ object
- a js object with a script that sends indexing info to the play~ object
- some buttons to trigger playback, recording, etc...

This seems like pretty standard stuff. Without posting the device itself, is this something ...

While editing Clip Envelopes in Session View, I would love to be able to see multiple Envelopes at once, so that I could edit them with respect to each other.

To get really fancy, it would be cool to have the option to see the playback head scrolling over the Envelopes if the Clip was being played ...
