Live Scripting Engine

Hi
Sorry I know this has been asked before, but I'd like to second the request for a way to control Live with a API.

I don't need a control oriented API like the python stuff but rather something exposing objects such as clips, tracks, scenes, presets,... with their properties and methods.

Most ...

stressing the importance of the fade setting

A quick note about something that i thought i should share:

I was browsing through the samples that are on the Live 6 library and i tried to create a sampler bank with the "E-Kick 11" sample. I also dropped the sample directly on the session. I was surprised to hear that the sampler and the audio ...

hi longjohns

i am sorry : i did not correctly expressed what i meant.

the simpler and sampler sound the same, but when converting to sampler, i was able to realize that the grand piano preset took advantage, indeed, of multisampling both on the note axis and on the velocity axis, as it did in ...

ok sorry. I got it now.

simpler IS able to use both note AND velocity data when triggering samples. basically i think there is a single engine in Live, but the simpler interface only allows using a single sample with a single velocity range.

converting simpler->sampler indeed revealed the ...

Where is Grand Piano for Sampler ?

Hello
I hope I wont get flamed for posting a "rtfm" question but... I've bought boxed live 6 and sampler, and I cannot find the grand piano preset for Sampler (assuming there is one). I cannot believe a 1gig+ set of sample would be used in Simpler only (i've found a simpler rack preset).

Does ...

(flame shield on)

what's the issue with Live "summing algorithm" ?

does it cheat and modify the ppc or pentium microcode before
summing samples ?

bencodec:

SuperCollider is already one of my best friends
(i'm the maintainer of SC for Windows :) )

However, the reason i bought live and want to be able
to script it is exactly because i don't want to spend lots
of time rewriting it in SC.

Also, SC is very powerful for patch design, but the ...

question for developers (scripting in python)

hi
a quick question for Live developers
how would you rate the idea of exposing your object model (at least the one running in the GUI thread) in python (for instance) in order for users to automate tasks (random beat slicing, automated track exports, and lots of other amazing things.. etc..) ?

A ...
