[v1.6.0] MASCHINE PLUS/MK3/MIKRO MK3 Ableton Live 11 MIDI Remote Script

Post by Elton47 » Mon May 10, 2021 7:29 am

MASCHINE PLUS, MK3 & MASCHINE MIKRO MK3 total integration with Ableton Live 11+ (Windows & Mac OS)

Introduction:
This Control Surface/MIDI Remote Script, providing total integration for Ableton Live 11, was exclusively built for MASCHINE MIKRO MK3, back in March 2021, but compatibility and same functionalities are now available and ready to use for MASCHINE PLUS & MASCHINE MK3, without support for the screens, 8x Encoders, 8x square buttons above the screens and other buttons not available on MASCHINE MIKRO MK3.

Several updates have been released since the first initial release and the continued development for this script will provide more future updates for new functionalities, fixes and improvements.

Notes:
This script is not for free, the development of this script continues for future updates, new features, improvements, support and bug fixes.
It is highly recommended to always use the latest version of this script.
The script requires the hardware to be on "MIDI Mode" (SHIFT + MASCHINE ICON button-press combination).
RESTART button is used for "SHIFT" operations, as we currently cannot assign any MIDI CC values for the physical SHIFT button.

Download:
You can purchase the script via Gumroad (using PayPal or other payment methods Gumroad offers for your country), from the following link:

Hello everyone,

Just a quick heads up about the v1.7.0 update.
Fixed Velocity is critical to be implemented, I have yet to find a solution about it.
I will let everyone know about other features soon!
Please rate the script over at Gumroad page, that would help me a lot!!

Best,
Elton

Howdy,

I haven't got myself a copy of your template yet but it looks like nice work. Solid Effort. Any chance you made one similar for Live 10.
Also if you do, basically I just lost my Job, which is sweet cause I just want to be home making music. Having no income temporarily however is pretty unsweet.

Wanna make a strangers day and send me a free download link. Genuinely love supporting the industry and legit software so I'll return the favour, can't get all the updates for my plugins or Ableton obviously either hahaha.

No stress anyhow, all the best

Peace

Hello,

Thank you for your kind appreciation and interest for the script.

Unfortunately, this script is built and works only for Ableton Live 11.
You can take a look at my old script for Live 10, which is also free to download, it is not very feature-rich, however, but it has the most important and commonly-used functionalities.

There is also an old video tutorial in the link above.

Please let me know about any issue or further questions :)

Best,
Elton
