We've released PULL v2.0 - Now you can control VSTi, VST, AU Plugins and also Max For Live Devices as well from your iPad

No Max programming needed, all templates can be created in Lemur.

There's a post about the new release here - viewtopic.php?f=1&t=207130

Just thought that it's worth posting here, in case anyone subscribed to the original thread.

We’ve just introduced new installers for MAC and WIN 32 bit, WIN 64 bit.

On MAC:
  • Simply click the “Installer-PULL-MAC.app”
  • Optionally - Install the Sigabort fix by clicking the “Installer-Sigabort Fix.app”
  • Uninstall the Sigabort fix by clicking the “Un-Installer-Sigabort Fix.app

On WIN 32 or 64:
  • Simply click the PULL_WIN_32.exe, or PULL_WIN_64.exe files and make sure the location is correct
  • You still have to install the optional Sigabort Fix manually – instructions in the help file
If you're using Windows and wondering which version to install, you just need to make sure that you use the same bit version as the Ableton Live bit version you’re using. e.g.

Ableton 64 bit – Max 64 bit – PULL 64 bit
Ableton 32 bit – Max 32 bit – PULL 32 bit

We’ve also left the manual install available for download, if that’s easier for some people.

Hope this helps

Cheers

We're about to launch a new collection of devices called XPlugin, which improve controlling VST's in Ableton. XPlugin can be used with PULL, PUSH or any controller (Midi/OSC etc).

XPlugin makes the following possible:

1) Unlimited VST parameters - Removes Abletons limit of 128 parameters for a VST.
2) Easy preset saving - No more saving VST presets inside of racks, save/recall a simple adv preset for the VST itself.
3) Maps parameters automatically - No more pressing the "configure" button
4) Control open/close of plugin window - possible to open the plugin window from any controller, or midi.
5) Shows PDC (Plugin delay compensation) - Its possible to calculate the delay a certain plugin causes and compensate for it manually in Ableton.
6) Renaming of Parameters - solves a problem where some VSTs, name parameters as duplicates causing problems for OSC/Touchscreen controllers
7) Program change control - For VST's that use program change to change presets.

We will launch XPlugin for as many VST's as possible (Initially the big VSTs such as Diva, Serum, Massive, Reaktor etc, but hopefully 1000s of VSTs in time, depending upon uptake).

Here is an image of what you can expect to see inside Diva VST (all 259 parameters mapped and ready to use). We've pre-mapped all the parameters for you, and solved a bunch of problems with parameter management inside Diva. Parameters are mapped just like they are in Ableton, but automatically. You can do whatever you like with them. Automate them, record them, map Midi to them etc.

We will release our new DIVA template in the next few days:

This is a mammoth template and allows you to control virtually every aspect of DIVA. Even the tabs can be controlled, along with all the menus to assign parameters to automation inside the synth.

DIVA uses xPlugin, to overcome the 128 parameter limit in Ableton.

Xmonsta your work is nice and valuable, but you seem to take other people work and dont credit them, first with mu and now with that Diva template.

Hi Login,

Is there any chance you can clarify. You don't seem to be a customer of ours, so it's hard to see how you are arriving at these conclusions? Have you compared the code of this template (even though we haven't released it yet), to the code of another template?

Rest assured that with PULL, Diva and every other software/template we make, every single line of code has been created lovingly by us. Device controllers are nothing new. We've just spent a lot of time trying to craft a really good one, from the ground up, that helps musicians, because this is our core goal.

Cheers

Re: PULL - iPad/Android Device/VST controller

Post by xmonsta » Fri Dec 12, 2014 7:06 pm

We've now got a working version of PULL on Android - which requires Lemur Android. This will only currently work on Lenovo Yoga 10 inch Android. However, we will be making PULL compatible with other versions as time goes on.

PULL is absolutely huge on this touchscreen, heres an image - Image

Theoretically PULL should work on any Android tablet that has a resolution above the iPads resolution, but there is just a bit of resizing to do for the templates (which shouldnt take long).

The great thing is that the newest Lemur editor has increased the Max file size for Lemur templates and now we can load/edit all the PULL templates in the Lemur editor at once.

We are about to release this over the coming days and also our fantastic new DIVA and SPIRE templates :)
