Hi, does anyone know if it is possible to use the Live API to send MIDI data directly to clips, either by sending a Standard MIDI file through the API, or some other representation?
I know that you can drag and drop a Standard MIDI file from the browser.. i'm trying to find a way to automate this so that it's quick and easy to send many generative / algorithmically-composed MIDI files to Live for quick audition and selection, etc..
I tried using Automator on OS X before, and that didn't work..

Re: populating MIDI clips using M4L and/or Live API ?
With M4L it's possible to write midi notes directly to clips. So for example, you could use the Max external 'ajm.midi2coll' to store midi files in [coll] objects and generate clips from them. But it works for notes only, not cc events.

Btw, instead of writing to clips the midi file (coll) could also be played directly in a M4L device.

thanks for the info.. i'm familiar with ajm objects.. hopefully there's a way to do the same for controllers, eventually.. possibly by writing a new external.. thanks for pointing me in the right direction..
