Re: Automation on some devices is "overridden" on project load

Automation on some devices is "overridden" on project load

have you ever encountered a situation where automation in the arrangement is "overridden" by (nonexisting) automation in the session view upon document load? it only happens on some plugins (massive and sylenth1, for example), but not on others. when i load the track, these automations will be ...

are you using anything else to replace the ableton browser? it's so slow and bad

i use live 10 in windows and i'm looking for browser alternatives that have a good integration with my live workflow; i've already looked at a few alternatives (adsr, resonic, one or two others) but i wasn't convinced. do you have any experiences you'd be willing to share, with the aforementioned ...

Re: Project thread: Building an ultra-portable performance set, and my experience with Remote Scripting in Live 10

I'm not sure I understand completely what you want to do... But I did come across a way to access devices - you can get at them through the song().tracks[your_track].devices[position_in_the_chain] infrastructure.

Debugging Upgrade and Fixing a Bug

I tried to fix that annoying little bug where the very first LEDs that were set to a color when the set wasn't playing were being turned off after a short time. I wasn't sure where that signal was being fired, so I turned to ...

Implementing the Advanced LED Behavior

I'm not sure that the method I'm using is ideal, but I'm still pretty proud I figured it out. There was not much in the way of examples to rely on with this - I could not find any scripts that had LEDs blinking in time to ...

Awesome! You’ve inspired me to do this. Got VS Code setup last night and made a ton of progress. You are helping me so much. Gonna upgrade my log game now.
That's fantastic! Good luck :)

Re: Project thread: Building an ultra-portable performance set, and my experience with Remote Scripting in Live 10


Great work. I hadn't got into the framework that far. Lots to learn.

Thank you! I hope you can also have some fun learning new stuff, I know I do.

Now, remember when I said I would definitely never ever eat those words earlier? Turns out...

Re: Sidechain certain frequencies

There's a VST called Trackspacer that was made for this, but if you want to do it with Live's built-in FX that's also possible. Do you know how to do regular sidechaining? It's just like that, except you use a frequency splitter - an effect rack with three chains and an EQ3 with one band solo'd on ...

Re: Project thread: Building an ultra-portable performance set, and my experience with Remote Scripting in Live 10


It seems like the _Framework scripts are a wrapper of a subset of the underlying API, and it seems they are mostly limited to control surface stuff.


I think it goes beyond that. I mean, yes, it is a subset, and much of it is about control surfaces, but it contains a lot of ways to inspect and ...
