I've switched to using this fantastic Max4Live device by 11Olsen, which gives lots of control. Just drop it on to a (any) midi track. Works really well - life in the old Nocturn yet

It doesn't need Automap at all and no tricky setup.

Thought I'd add my own experience to this for reference, as this thread was a useful place for me to start my own troubleshooting.

I've been getting continual "Live Unexpectedly quit" messages on exiting Live 11. I could see the duplicate files being created in the Preferences>Live 11>Base files ...

Hi Midiscripts

Really appreciate your continuing investigations. I'm detached from my Nocturn until christmas, but will both try what you have suggested and help in any way I can. Please PM me if you need steps describing - though it sounds like you're on top of it now?

cheers

[/quote]i don't know why, but even with your method blue hand just never ever appear.. do you have Mac? my system is Win 7 64bit, maybe that's the problem too..[/quote]

Hello olegaroyan, sorry for slow reply. Yes I am on a Mac, but I'd be surprised if that made a difference in this case. My blue ...

the blue hand doesn't appear when i select racks and other parameters, so i can't use instant mappings and Inst channel on Nocturn to change first 8 parameters.

I just checked this out again, as when I first tried I did get 'first 8 parameter' control of the first device I tried. It seems you ...

Midiscripts - thank you, everything working, such a simple solution that just needed someone with expertise to point it out. I am extremely grateful.

Just to re-iterate for others:

"4. Downloaded ZIP file from Github contains `Nocturn-RS4L/Live/src` folder which has a lot of *.py source files.

Hello

Thank you very, very much for trying to help with this. I've got as far as replacing '.pyc' files with '.py' as you described and the script(s) are now selectable in Live 9.6 - only I'm not connected to my controller at the moment. I will hook it up tomorrow, test and feedback.

Thanks again ...

I've not had to think too much about Automap versions for a while. I've got 4.4.0 and it works fine (mavericks and el capitan) - I'm not sure I remember the same for previous versions.

My advice would be to forget the 'speed dial' - it seemed like a nice feature to begin with, but for me it's ...

Hello

Guille's scripts are not working in 9.6 as reported above. This is a great shame as they transformed the Nocturn into being able to control a great deal of Live.

However, your post has reminded me of my own journey into finding them in the first place. By using the user remote mapping you ...

Guille's Nocturn scripts do work beautifully with Live 9.5.

You will need to manually install/reinstall the files in the MIDI Remote Scripts folder if you update from a previous version.

They are not available for selection in the control surface drop down menu in the 9.5.1 beta versions. I ...

To clarify my earlier post about Guille's Nocturn remote scripts no longer working, this is in the 9.5.1 beta (with Ableton Link). It's an acknowledged issue with older remote scripts that use Python 2.5.

This means the scripts won't be working with the next release of Live and will need to be ...

So... Just trying out the 9.5 beta and Guille's fantastically useful Nocturn scripts are no longer available (not showing up in the drop down controller selector).

As I understand it, this is because of a move to Python 2.7 from Python 2.5. That is just about the end of my understanding on that ...

Hello

I had a great time back in the summer using the remote script with my Nocturn, but after some time away I tried again to set it up (lost mappings... long story) - I've been struggling for a while tonight, but just hit EUREKA, so thought I'd post the vital step to success that I'd been missing ...

Just got the remote mapping script working with my nocturn - unbelievably useful for controlling Live, can't believe I've spent 2 years under achieving with Midi Learn and a DIY user configuration. Thanks so much Guille for your work.

I downloaded the most recent script from Mediafire link on page ...

Hello

I've just replaced my Line 6 FBV Shortboard Foot controller with the newer USB MkII version. As well as now being able to program the switches in software, they've also changed the action of the switches and I'm happy to report they work perfectly with Looper across all functions.

I now have ...
