Live 11: API access to Clip's Scale button?

Post by Patrick_K » Wed Apr 14, 2021 10:58 pm

Running some tests on the v11 API additions.

Looks like I can change the Key and Scale that a MIDI Clip is set to via the API if (and only if) the Scale button for that clip is already active.

... but is there no way to enable or disable the Scale button for a MIDI Clip via the API?

Thanks to anyone who can shed some light on this one.

I don't think so.

Thanks for confirming.

It seems that enabling the Scale button for a Clip sets the current/control surface scale to whatever the Clip setting is... so I can see a potential argument against being able to remotely enable Clip Scale... I mean, this button isn't MIDI-mappable either... there's got to be a reason.
