!!COMPLETE MOUSE-LESS MIDI CONTROL! CLICKABLE ACTIONS TOO!!
thx stu
my thing is music, not programming - there are many gifted minds around here in this sense. I only reach some stuff cos I needed more freedom, treat the computer as a live instrument, kinda dub philosophy I dig. Still researching towards the "ultimate setup", though.
Here I can play my string instruments (bass, guitar, cavaco) trough my electro harmonix goodies for more organic textures. loop it, and start tweaking or layerin' another sound with vsts and whatnot.
Note that with this setup and some routing, you can loop any track, not just the input sources. so it's nice to get some weird sound of a beat looped if you like - just open the send of a return track which will feed the 4 loop tracks, and step on a button. set it to sends only for not duplicate the signal, and voila.
cheers,
coelho

usb won't be the problem. Is the message from ableton? You should be able to open up ableton, make sure that your controller is connecting like normal, after you've confirmed it's communicating ok anyway open up AHK and then Bome and make sure you have the midi input on bome set up right. Other than that not sure what the problem could be.

I have a midi controller that can output midi on 2 different paths, so thats how im getting around this. Ableton midi to midi out A and bomes midi to midi out B. I also have a trigger finger though, and on this one i have just 1 midi out, so its either live midi engine or bomes, which sucks. I dont think its possible to use both engines at once.stjohn wrote:did anyone manage to get both MIDI engines working at the same time??

Allright, ive got this figured out after many hours of madness.
To get one device to send midi cc's and notes to ableton as well as Midi translated keystrokes, you need MIDIyoke,
http://www.midiox.com/
This gives you virtual midi ports, so you go MIDI device in to bomes, in bomes midi out is midi yoke port 1, in ableton disable your midi device in midi prefs and enable midi yoke port 1 for track and remote control, in bomes select midi through.
Now on my trigger finger i have 8 pads controlling directional moving through the browser and cells, also enter and delete, and 8 pads contolling impulse and the knobs and sliders using ableton automap.
Schweeet!
Thanks for this guys, this makes ableton really feel much more like an instrument. I think the further you get from a keyboard and mouse and mouse the better, at the moment im about 95percent keyboard and mouse free.
