Good.
I probably forgot these parameters back then, since I don't really use Analog.

And between yours and S4racens link, the complaining about Filepi might finally come to an end 8)

greetings!

since Push 2 release my biggest concern was about mappings. i've really got used to these mappings by TomViolenz and i just don't think it'll work like that with Push 2. there are new parameters and options besides.

so how are things there? maybe some of you who used Push1 with these scripts could tell how's default mapping on Push 2 set up?

Hi all,

Are these settings still better than default on the Push 2?

I find the auto mappings on certain vst.s very random, and the mapping layout settings on Push / Live 9.5, is not very logic, for example, an ADSR or filters cutoff/ resonance etc. can stretch to 2 banks, insted of being together in one bank right after each other, for easy control.
I know this thread is about Live,s devices, but i just saw Tom,s remark from June:

I hear Mr. lovelights and his locked Facebook group is a REALLY friendly place, with only REALLY well meaning people ;-)

Obviously this is going to happen, the automapping just follows, and always has, the order the plug in has. The plug in developer configures this order.

FYI, I've updated my Ubermap tool, which allows you to remap VST/AU plugins on Push (and also remap Live's own devices, although the new mappings for them are more advanced than what you could do with Ubermap, so this part isn't that useful any more), for Live 9.5 and (hopefully) Push 2. Setup is slightly technical but if you are interested: viewtopic.php?p=1684933#p1684933

This isn't working as of Live 9.6, anyone else have this problem?

This? The main subject or Ubermap?

In Live 9.6 python support was updated to version 2.7, so some scripts will have to be recompiled by their creators to work correctly.

I think generally, Python 2.7 is backwards compatible and so should Live be on that account. It might not be in practice as you suggest, but that's on Ableton I suspect. I've had 2.7 installed since release and no issues with previous Live versions, though that might have been a side by side installation, can't remember.

It's a known issue with some scripts, not all though as you say.

This, the main subject, doesn't work for me. It did before 9.5, but now when drop in the .py file and it converts to a .pyc file I get nothing when I boot live--no banks or user presets. I haven't tried Ubermap, perhaps I should? Any ideas?

This does as far as I know not work anymore. I think someone posted something about a workaround.

Dang! Maybe we can put this in the first post then to let folks know? Could you possibly link to that workaround? I found the community mappings really game-changing, would be grateful to have them back.

edit: I've looked all over for the workaround but can't find it.

I can't find it now, but you can try with this in Terminal:

Code: Select all

python -m py_compile [nameOfSourceFile].py
+ return.

I'm not certain this will work if the file needs external libraries and what not. I'm pretty sure you need to have Python 2.7 installed. You can check which verison you have with

Code: Select all

python --version
+ return.
