How to : use midi remote script Major Update (sparkle)

[Raztua]

i think you should try do the way i have done it:
First i recommand you to use

Code: Select all

self.song().add_current_song_time_listener(self._song_time_listener)

this seems to be the most precise callback
then in my script it it calls the function:

Code: Select all

    def _song_time_listener(self):
    if self.actual_mode_button==self.mode_buttons[2] or self.actual_mode_button==self.mode_buttons[3] :
        value=self.actual_clipslot.clip.playing_position
        if int(4*value)!=self.blink_position and (int(value) in range(4*(self.pattern_position-1),4*(self.pattern_position))):
            if self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value)-1)%16].status:
                self.turn_led_on(self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value)-1)%16].identifier)
            else:
                self.turn_led_off(self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value)-1)%16].identifier)
            if self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value))%16].status:
                self.turn_led_off(self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value))%16].identifier)
            else:
                self.turn_led_on(self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value))%16].identifier)
        elif (int(4*value))%16!=self.blink_position and (((int(4*value))==16*(self.pattern_position)) or int(4*value)==0):
            self.turn_led_off(self.pattern_buttons[(int(4*value)-1)%16].identifier)

Let me know if you don t get something

in my script im just trying to control the global play button.
here is my code :
__init__.py

Code: Select all

from Transportasi import Transportasi

def create_instance(c_instance):
    return Transportasi(c_instance)

transportasi.py

Code: Select all

from __future__ import with_statement
import Live
from _Framework.ControlSurface import ControlSurface #Central base class for scripts based on the new Framework
from _Framework.TransportComponent import TransportComponent #Class encapsulating all functions in Live's transport section
from _Framework.ButtonElement import ButtonElement #Class representing a button a the controller

class Transportasi(ControlSurface):
    __module__=__name__                  #name of the class
    __doc__="transport function"           #documentation

    def __init__(self, c_instance):
        ControlSurface.__init__(self,c_instance)   #import the components of a ControlSurface
        self.log_message("ikilho")
        with self.component_guard():               #don't know the us of this, but it is recquiered in live 9 scripts
            self.__c_instance = c_instance

            transport = TransportComponent() #Instantiate a Transport Component
            transport.set_play_button(ButtonElement(True, 0, 0, 48))

Whats wrong with my code? Anybody can help me please?


Thx...

Hi followers,

Today i ll try to make a simple program that uses 5 buttons to browse instruments
I will use:

• button 60 to activate the browser

• button 61 to navigate up

• button 62 to navigate down

• button 63 to navigate left

• button 64 to navigate right

here is the script :

Code: Select all

import Live #you import Live, in order to be able to use its components
from _Framework.ControlSurface import ControlSurface
from _Framework.ButtonElement import ButtonElement
from _Framework.InputControlElement import *



IS_MOMENTARY=True

class sparkLE2(ControlSurface):
    __module__=__name__
    __doc__="Sparkle function"
    
    def __init__(self, c_instance):
        ControlSurface.__init__(self,c_instance)
        with self.component_guard():
            self.__c_instance = c_instance
            self.view=self.application().view
            self.show_message('initialiasation du script')
            #initialisation and setup of the pad          
            self.Pad_browser=ButtonElement(IS_MOMENTARY, MIDI_NOTE_TYPE, 0,60)
            self.Pad_browser.status=False            
            self.Pad_up=ButtonElement(IS_MOMENTARY, MIDI_NOTE_TYPE, 0,61)
            self.Pad_down=ButtonElement(IS_MOMENTARY, MIDI_NOTE_TYPE, 0,62)            
            self.Pad_left=ButtonElement(IS_MOMENTARY, MIDI_NOTE_TYPE, 0,63)
            self.Pad_right=ButtonElement(IS_MOMENTARY, MIDI_NOTE_TYPE, 0,64)
            
            self.Pad_browser.add_value_listener(self.browser,identify_sender= False)
            self.Pad_up.add_value_listener(self.up,identify_sender= False)
            self.Pad_down.add_value_listener(self.down,identify_sender= False)
            self.Pad_left.add_value_listener(self.left,identify_sender= False)
            self.Pad_right.add_value_listener(self.right,identify_sender= False)
            
            self.view.hide_view('Browser')

    def browser(self,value):
        if value!=0:
            if self.Pad_browser.status==False:
                self.Pad_browser.status=True
                self.view.focus_view('Browser')
                self.view.show_view('Browser')
                
            elif self.Pad_browser.status==True:
                self.Pad_browser.status=False
                self.view.hide_view('Browser')
                
    def up(self,value):
        if value!=0:
            self.view.scroll_view(0,'Browser',False)
            
            
    def down(self,value):
        if value!=0:
            self.view.scroll_view(1,'Browser',False)
            
    def left(self,value):
        if value!=0:
            self.view.scroll_view(2,'Browser',False)
            
    def right(self,value):
        if value!=0:
            self.view.scroll_view(3,'Browser',False)

How ever i am unable to simulate the return key with a midi inforamtion.
-> I can't add the device to the selected rack.

I have checked the Browser.tags.children etc etc and i am able to load a device using the browser method,

But i am unable to link the View object and the browser object.

if someone has an idea

when i try this i keep getting 5301 ms. RemoteScriptError:

5307 ms. RemoteScriptError:

[snappyass]

sorted that. "from __future__ import with_statement" was needed. did you ever work out how to simulate the enter/ return key? i can use a keystroke as a workaround but with multiple monitors i have to make sure ableton is my screen in focus with a mouse click. so this can be a bit annoying.

wrote a little script for those who might want to decompile the .pyc to readable .py recursively. Please change the root address according to your settings.
