observing playing_status: works with APC40?

Post by Mattijs » Mon Oct 26, 2009 2:31 pm

Hi all,

I'm observing a clip object's playing_status property to get notified of playing state changes. Just wondering, since I don't have an APC40 available (yet), what happens when the clip's playing status is changed with the APC40 instead of the mouse. Does it still report status changes correctly?

The reason I'm asking is that in the Live Object Model, control_surface seems an entirely separate branch.

Cheers,
Mattijs

The playing status is updated regardless of hardware. It monitors Live's playing status. The APC40 will trigger Live's clip and hence trigger the playing status.

Mike
