Am I right in thinking there is no sure way of getting the clip length in bars/beats? You can get the length of an unwarped clip in seconds. Or you can get the length in bars of a loop. Or you can get the length in bars between the start and end markers of an unlooping clip. But is there any way of ...

When you press fixed mode on a push 1 it toggles fixed mode on and off.

Its a bit clunky.

works for me. 10.9.5, latest Live (until tomorrow), latest Max 7.

I think the js files QuantizeTranslate and message_initialize are missing - not bundled with the device and max is deleting patchcords so the device doesn't work.

Could be wrong though!

Also @old school user are you trying to drag both files in together? If so, you need to do it one by one.

How come in this this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVSenhHaaDk the global quantisation appears to be set to 1 bar but the guy can move the playhead without waiting for the bar to finish? I can't seem to achieve this unless I set the global quantisation to none and then the loop length beco...

Yes I got that far

Slightly confused as to why my 8 bar loop starts looping 1 bar when I use scrub.
Also scrub appears to be quantized both in terms of when the jump happens and where it jumps too.

Is there a way to find out how scrub works?

I mean I'm getting there by prodding and poking but there could be some stuff I missed

You lot are so not coming to my party any more :cry: In any case, if there is ever anyone who is interested in my peculiar problem, I think what is happening is that every parameter is automatically included in the autopattr system so when I switch between patterns, every parameter is changed and th...

I kind of realise I did a pretty terrible job of explaining that so I've uploaded a simplified mini project which should clarify things a bit. If you've got time please have a look at the following: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3202702/bs_bugtest%20Project.zip Assuming I've packaged the set c...

I have made a device and I don't know if its relevant but it uses the pattr system. I am finding that when I use the device the automation is getting overridden and I have to click the Re-Enable Automation button to get it function properly. This is weird as I have no midi controllers connected and ...

You don't really need a standalone max patch and network sends.

Just use the serial object in Max4Live.

Serial.print(data); to get data from Arduino to M4L and bang the serial object.

Feed data into the serial object to get data into the Arduino.

Remember to get the port and baud settings correct.

Don't know if this would work but..... You can save buffer contents as an audio file using write. So you can automate this in your patch somewhere, no? If you then dragged the saved file into a dummy Live track somewhere it will become a part of the set and therefore part of the Manage Set files. I ...

Can anyone try this version: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3202702/instant_looper.amxd S4racen said it was colouring the output which I thought was because of a patching error but come to think of it could be because I used poke~ Can anyone tell me the cleanest way to get audio in a buffer? Th...

@S4racen have you got a link to yours? Video? I won't copy it and offer it for free or anything. Scouts Honour! My quick effort wasn't api based - it just records the last bar into a circular buffer and then plays sections of that. I did play around with the api and looping though and yes, it made m...

Has anyone written any instant looper devices like you get in DJ software? I think there is an isotonik one but couldn't work out where the latest version was or what it does. In any case I don't want to buy one. I just put this together: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/3202702/instant_looper.am...
