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 pr...

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.

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

https://i.imgur.com/C1I0N3P.png 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 stackov...

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

https://i.imgur.com/C1I0N3P.png 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 the be...

Ah, thank you! Looks like that works in Live 10 already, I just changed it and made my script COMPLETELY FUTURE-PROOF

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 :) -I spent an hour trying to get Hello World working. I was doing it just like you, but it just would not work. I ...

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... https://i.imgur.com/C1I0N3P.png Fixing the LED colors That...

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 e...

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 contr...

Cheers, I'm having a lot of fun, and also a bunch of frustration to make me appreciate the wins so much more :D This next bit took me a long while to figure out, and in the end it turns out I almost had it right at the beginning but my solution didn't work because I indented it wrong (Python, you li...

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

Hello! I decided to finally use Live for the purpose for which I originally bought it (back in ... uh... 2009): Playing live! I have an A&H Xone:K1 and a small MIDI keyboard, and those two and a laptop are everything I want to use - I would like my setup to be super portable, and these three ite...
